Africa harbors boundless untapped potential in RE, human capital, & critical minerals. The consequences of neglecting these assets & remaining commodities suppliers are grave for us. Read more in my conversation The Guardian tinyurl.com/5by76tb8

Africa's potential as a continent is unparalleled: high quality solar, restoration potential & the 🌍’s youngest workforce - to name a few.

FINANCE & INVESTMENT can unlock this potential, with climate resilient opportunities that provide inclusive livelihoods and quality jobs.

Tropical forests are home to communities whose cultures, traditions, & livelihoods are linked.

Protecting forests safeguards culture, ecosystems, & biodiversity like NOTHING else.
