Ask the president of Angola how many professors in Angola know the meaning of COP? The Angolan president took few if any ambitious goals to the COP26 climate summit, Angola has been part of the UNFCCC since 2001, so ask an Angolan university citizen what COP means?
Angola, like the other MAP countries, is also affected by climate injustice, our indigenous people have been losing their lands and cultures and all the most precious commodity of their existence for years.
Angolans in Angola choose to harm these peoples and cultures because they receive international support to sustain these practices.
The definition of Angola was clear:
Angola is a rich and beautiful Country, because of its vast….
The leaders’ version and the media’s misrepresentation
Angola is a beautiful and BlaBlaBla country, for its vastness.
It is shameful that you find methods to take wealth in my land and leave me in the worst misery, people in Angola are developing new ways of survival, as seen in many places in the world.
Angola has been practicing GreeWash for decades, programs to combat environmental degradation are total failures, the Angolan system is oppressive and prevents Angolans from developing.
I get it, sorry to be repetitive, but African nations need ambitious targets if they want to be taken seriously at the COP26 climate summit. Angola has failed.
The impact of climate change has affected Angolan society from many angles, it has affected and is affecting more intensely the mental health of many youth and adults, increasing the risk to children’s health, thus affecting half of the children on our planet, in southern Angola global warming, lack of rain, displacement of people (Climate Refugees), etc.
For the international media, the Angolan government has denied the existence of hunger and malnutrition in Angola, but there is hunger in southern Angola. Do you know the Cattle paradise? Better the End of the Cattle Paradise?
The Angolan system wants to ignore justice and equity in the fight against climate change.
The Angolan system denies Angolans a dignified life.
The Angolan system denies decentralizing power.
The Angolan system denies Internet access to Angolan citizens.
The Angolan system denies Angolans access to Environmental and Climate Education.
The Angolan system denies to qualify its teachers about the catastrophic consequences of Climate Change and harmful environmental problems.
Money in Angola is “GRASS”, the luxurious life of Angolan politicians is proof of this, Angolan politicians could do the basics on climate action, but limit themselves to being GreenWash masters.
Local activists tell me the political situation in Angola is sensitive, International Organizations tell me the same, the political situation in Angola is sensitive; on this I say #NoMoreEmptyBlaBlaBla. For me Climate Change is Sensitive.
I dropped what I was doing to answer the call for climate, the fight is complex and may cost me my life.
Angolans are not going to the streets because in 1977 the Angolan system “massacred” thousands of activists in the streets of Luanda and southern Angola.
