European donors attempted to woo #SouthAfrica's sceptical #coal belt to embrace #renewable energy. Let’s just say there’s a lot of convincing left to do …. reuters.com/business/energ…
#SouthAfrica’s donor-funded #EnergyTransition is moving slowly as politicians fret about how to prevent its coal belt going into terminal economic decline… #ClimateCatastrophe #RenewableEnergy reuters.com/world/africa/f…

‘conservation imperialism’ has been a problem ever since the first Africans were kicked off their land to make way for white-run game reserves. This latest case of it shows how little has been learned. Cracking yarn by @EdStoddardZA dailymaverick.co.za/article/2024-0…
#SouthAfrica now has an energy minister who wants an 'aggressive' #renewables #GreenEnergy rollout. His predecessor called such a move “wrong” and vowed to keep burning coal. Progress? My report: reuters.com/sustainability…
#SouthAfrica's #Ramaphosa announces cabinet that includes ex-opposition leader #Steenhuisen. A new dawn of coalition politics starts here reuters.com/world/africa/s…
@ByDonkeys this is the example I always bring up whenever a Western politician or punter makes a lazy, hypocritical remark about ‘African’ corruption in places like Nigeria, Congo or South Africa …
15 days to go. Remember when the @Conservatives gave £203m to a Tory peer for largely useless PPE and she spent the profits on a yacht
Now #ANC has lost its majority for the 1st time since #Mandela brought it to victory, #SouthAfrica needs to form a unity government from parties with wildly different visions of how the country should proceed. My latest.. reuters.com/world/africa/s…
A #SouthAfrican party that wants to make it mandatory to teach the Biblical 10 commandments in school, kick out all Black African migrants with no documents and introduce military conscription and the death penalty. Now why does that sound so familiar?
