Cyril Jacob Okon
My name is Cyril Okon. I’m a passionate writer and environmental advocate. My journey into writing began early as a media prefect in secondary school, and studying English Education further nurtured my passion for storytelling. I’ve refined my craft through essay competitions and podcast content writing, which have shaped my clear and thoughtful approach to writing. I’m excited to participate in Generation Restoration: Shaping Our Future, where I hope to share my ideas on creating a sustainable future.

My submission ‘Restoring the Planet, the Present, and Future’ stresses the urgent need for environmental restoration in the face of climate change, plastic pollution, deforestation, and other ecological crises. It emphasises the role of collective action, sustainable practices such as the Nigeria’s National Policy on Plastic Waste Management in shaping a safer ecological future. The essay advocates for immediate and sustained efforts to protect both present and future generations, while reinforcing that the time for restoration is now.
