8:35 pm
are not helpless and commit to get the effects. that starts with educating people most of the vendors called my kids have never heard of climate change but for many fear issues and i. told them to understand the change in weather patterns they have witnessed. saying i'm going to. be waiting for you 200-2016 some get erratic water supply due to reach out to lead to a no rainfall and also that was caused because many people were busy cutting down trees and this is what we're actually going to get to see more if no action is actually implemented by we the people feeding one since the people at the market to think about it political alternative such as charcoal made from banana peels or mayes. her commitment shows how young people across the globe are becoming

8:37 pm
and opt for more green solutions. so who are has been presented as the solution for africa the industry isn't but however i'll see that in the new area to get clinton doesn't need court all i got was if you are too weak it's full potential because you know at the one hand. you're not of course it was his cause the current climate crisis we are in on the other hand who are sources such as hydro power us we. are becoming more and more affordable and are cheaper underwriting it so there is obsessed lead no need for african government to not consider growing the core we because it's being phased out group money ok so let's talk about you bring out the global picture we're looking at the west today and they're almost you know under the pressure of having to cognize at a very rapid pace and then you have africa which actually has not even carbonized
8:38 pm
we're talking about you talked about the no emissions on the continent i just wondered whether or not that gives us bogen in power as africans. yeah it for some need does all government kind of gives these are by giving power inductor this is being used as an argument justified in the city are too important to persist score again how about say that we need to ask a question i too have been official that kind of options is it though of ordinary africans or is rather the companies and maybe some elites governmental officials who get profit out of sight deal so i think the option that the government across uppercut should consider are the ones that put forward people's interests and address not only the environmental crisis but also
8:39 pm
