Indigenous People reject UN-just energy transition & refuse2 bind our future2 its debt loaded tech solutions. We salute @JapanGov @JPN_PMO for thinking along same lines as SA's indigenous innovators harnessing infinite tidal power @landwatertruth @cop27 https://t.co/wpCyqCRb4R

South Africa's coal minister, Gwede Mantashe, lies shamelessly. Makes me f*cking furious 'cause he knows very well he's lying. South Africa is being asked to be about 30 years behind rich countries in the energy transition. Not LEAD the transition. https://t.co/p8QRpWtRaz
