Development Bank chief says Africa deserves right to use natural gas reserves

from the conference hosts arrived late on Monday and made no mention of fossil fuels. While it forms the basis of any agreement, the all-important final wording has yet to be hammered out.Even if Africa were to triple its production of natural gas from current levels, its contribution to global emissions would only rise by 0.67%, he said.

My interest is how Africa uses natural gas as part of its energy mix to provide electricity for 600 million people today that don’t have access to electricity. Since the Industrial Revolution, developed countries have emitted about 2 400 gigatons of climate-damaging carbon emissions, leaving only about 400 gigatons left if the world wants to hit its temperature goa.“And so Africa, which did not really emit, should not now be penalised for not even being able to use a little bit of gas to complement its natural resources.”In times of uncertainty you need journalism you can trust.
