Droughts, heatwaves, aggressive rains and catastrophic floods are tormenting the African continent. 

It is a fact that fossil fuels are the biggest contributors to global warming. All the gas, coal and crude oil we burn for energy has led to people losing their homes, without access to food while threatening their health. 

We can turn things around but we all have to play our part in lowering our carbon footprint and most importantly, fight against dirty energy which is making our earth unlivable. 

Over 200 civil society organisations are raising their voice against a proposal from the African Union which is calling for the expansion of fossil fuels. If this passes, a transition to renewable energy will be delayed, causing further hardship for millions of people.

Write a message addressed to African leaders on why they need to shift towards renewable energy. We will deliver these ahead of the COP27 climate summit in November as part of the Don’t Gas Africa campaign.
