Climate change is no longer a distant threat—it’s here, right now. We see it in the harmful heatwaves, unpredictable rains, severe droughts, and violent storms displacing families, devastating food supplies, harming our health, and pushing millions deeper into poverty.
The world is struggling and climate scientists have warned us for decades: the more fossil fuels we burn, the worse it will get. And it’s not just about today—it’s about our future and the future of generations to come. The African continent, despite contributing the least to the crisis, is bearing the brunt of these impacts.
This is a turning point. Instead of expanding oil and gas projects, leaders must invest in clean, renewable energy. For the 675 million Africans without electricity, this shift isn’t just about protecting the planet—it’s about creating jobs, lifting communities, and driving sustainable growth.
At COP28, world leaders agreed to triple renewable energy capacity by 2030, but we’re falling behind. We can’t let this happen. Add your name to our open letter and demand action—because our planet can’t wait.
