WATCH: Extinction Rebellion Street Theatre in Cape Town

Extinction Rebellion Cape Town staged a short piece of street theatre in Long Street to highlight the climate crisis we are facing and to coincide with the COP27 “Decarbonization Day” held in Egypt today. Extinction Rebellion Cape Town is calling on the South African government, and the governments of the world, to stop looking to “unicorn technology” to magically save us, but rather to invest in current and effective technology in the form of renewable energy, which according to them is now cheaper, cleaner, safer and more people-centred than fossil fuels. Egypt is hosting the 27th UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP27) in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt, from November 6 to November 18, 2022. Video Tracey Adams / African News Agency (ANA)
