African countries called for an end to climate injustice saying the continent causes less than four per cent of global CO2 emissions but pays one of the highest prices for global warming.
Government officials, international organisations, NGOs and the private sector from more than 60 African nations attended Monday’s opening of Africa Climate Week in Gabon’s capital to prepare for the COP27 UN climate conference in Egypt in November.
Host President Ali Bongo Ondimba says the continent has to speak with one voice and offer concrete proposals for COP27.
