Renewable energy and climate change exploring the policy options for Africa
Climate change is challenge to sustainable development in Africa. Even though Africa contributes less than 4% of global greenhouse gas emissions, it is disproportionately affected by the impact of climate change on, inter Alia, food security, water supplies, biodiversity and climate-related diseases.Energy and climate change are however related, as most greenhouse gas emissions arise from the way society produces, distributes, and consumes energy. This connection offers an opportunity to implement policies that will allow achievement of energy security goals in a sustainable manner and in less carbon-intensive ways.
