In this episode, we take a look at how climate change is affecting the African continent and South Africa especially. The impacts are real and already here, but South Africans seem mostly unaware of this impending threat. We also chat to environmental rock star Makoma Lekalakala, director of Earthlife Africa.

Politically Aweh is covering climate change in South Africa in a 3-part mini series this month and a live streamed roundtable discussion on climate action on 26 September 6PM CAT with young South Africans at the forefront of local activism.

We have committed to producing climate content as part of the global #CoveringClimateNow campaign which has united over 220 news outlets around the world to emphasise humanity's greatest challenge.
