Michael Simire thinks that the media has a responsibility to seek out solutions instead of solely exposing problems. As CEO of EnviroNews Nigeria, Simire is providing a platform to educate, support business and, most importantly, make a change. The website highlights a range of topical environment and development issues emerging daily in Nigeria. All of this work helps to make Nigeria a healthy and pollution-free environment.

Simire is an urban planner and Fellow of both the Leadership for Environment and Development (LEAD) and the Climate Change Media Partnership (CCMP).
