SUMMARY:The Climate Crisis and Developing Economies: A conversation with the Director of Power Shift Africa
DESCRIPTION:WHAT THE WEST OWES THE REST \nThe Climate Crisis & Developing Economies: A conversation with Mohamed Adow\, Director of Power Shift Africa \nPresident Biden has ushered in the most ambitious climate plan in US history. But his wafer-slim majority in Congress gives him little time to push through his agenda before midterm elections in 18 months. The faith community must push for the realization of scaled up US climate ambition in coming months and years\, following COP26 in November and in preparation for decisive 2024 Presidential elections. \nMohamed Adow is an international climate policy expert and ardent advocate for the people of developing nations – who are disproportionately affected by climate change but play almost no role in causing it. Hailing from a pastoralist community in Northern Kenya that faces increasing droughts\, Adow’s experience on the frontlines of the climate crisis anchor his work as a voice for those most vulnerable to climate change. He is an outspoken and deeply respected leader among policy makers\, NGOs\, and the media on Africa and climate justice. \nMohamed is the Founder and Director of Power Shift Africa\, a nongovernmental organization and thinktank based in Kenya that he formed in 2018 to mobilize climate action in Africa and shift climate and energy policies to zero carbon. \nJoin the event here: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86137939600?from=addon#success \n______________________________________________________________________________________________ \nCoNGO Notes: For more information on the Committee of Religious NGOs at the United Nations\, please visit rngos.wordpress.com.
