Podcast: Who are Africa’s climate superstars?

Welcome to the latest episode of the Africa Science Focus podcast distributed in partnership with African Arguments. Africa Science Focus is a weekly podcast series by SciDevNet and is a platform for reporters in Sub-Saharan Africa’s least developed countries to report on the science that’s having an impact on their communities.

Climate change is already hitting Africa hard – from extreme weather events, to locust plagues, and failed harvests. But, international research and policy bodies, and ‘hot lists’ of influential climate scientists, rarely include African scientists. With United Nations climate talks set to take place in the United Kingdom in November, Selly Amutabi and Michael Kaloki ask whether African science can influence these critical international negotiations. We find out which climate scientists and activists the world should be watching, and why climate adaptation and mitigation depends on African science.

This programme was funded by the European Journalism Centre, through the European Development Journalism Grants programme, with support from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

    Climate superstars of fraud. The climate has forever changed as a natural phenomenon. Science has just invented equipment and tools to find out and discover it has always changed. The Principe melts due to turn in weather circle after the cold weather that powers it subsides.

    You need to read the book AWO. An autobiography of chief Obafemi Awolowo, the late sage Nigerian Yoruba icon. In the book you will read about a local river in his home town of Ikenne called Uren. The river dries up at a point in time within the year and crest at another time within same season. Same with the Ogun river in Abeokuta, which crests and covers the bridge during its peak and dies up and exposes the underlying rocks at its belly. The natural circle continues till date. This day, the climate frauds would rather have us believe must be attributed to ozone layer peels that fuels climate change, which bolster their unscientific claim.

    How would exponents and disciples of the deceit, change how the sun rises and set at its natural course?. Maybe they should tell us how rain and other components and determinants of climate could possibly be manipulated to change course. There and then shall we take the dunces serious for their worth.

    The tiny tin gods are working really hard with overtime to pull wools over our eyes. I mean the equal dunces, if you are one of them.

    This space is not enough for the repudiations against authors and apostles of repulsive climate brain faux pas.
