Ghana hosts 2019 Africa Climate Week

Activists attending the ongoing Africa Climate week holding in Accra believe that despite agreement that climate change is threatening life especially in Africa.

Environmental activists say there is a massive gap between actions needed to address climate change and suggestions being advanced by countries of the Global North.

Article Six of the Paris Agreement which advances Market Mechanisms for confronting the climate crisis is particularly annoying to activists who believe the mechanism will only encourage polluters to continue polluting at the expense of Africa which is now carrying the burden of climate change.
