Did you know that 600 million Africans are currently left without access to modern clean renewable energy and that this number is likely to increase if further gas and oil projects are undertook.
To ensure that Africa is not locked into further fossil gas production a campaign led by activists across Africa ahead of COP27, is demanding "an end to fossil gas and other dirty dangerous, obsolete and inappropriate energy systems.”
This campaign is the topic of today's episode. With our wonderful guest, Dean Bhekumuzi, Don't Gas Africa Campaigner, we discuss the roots and objectives of the campaign, the recent "dash for gas" European powers are leading, why it is so important for Africa to turn away from gas and so much more!
We hope you enjoy the episode!
