The contentious issue of forcing rich nations to compensate developing countries for economic loss caused by global warming is on the formal agenda of climate talks in Egypt.South Africa's just energy transition plan — to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and pursue low-carbon renewable sources of energy while protecting jobs — has been well received at the COP27 summit, forestry, fisheries and environmental affairs minister Barbara Creecy said on Wednesday.
Asked about weaning South Africa off coal-fired power stations — when load-shedding is wreaking havoc — Creecy said President Cyril Ramaphosa has been clear that the energy transition must support “development and energy in particular”. “I think loss and damage is going to be the thorny issue at COP27. I suppose many small island states and least developed countries will measure its success, or not, by this,” said Creecy.
