Earlier this week, South Africa's Environmental Affairs Minister Edna Molewa announced that in addition to finalising the National Climate Change Adaptation Strategy, her department had developed a draft Climate Change Bill to provide effective national response for both mitigation and adaptation action.
The increasing frequency and intensity of extreme weather events around South Africa – from flash flooding in some parts of the country to devastating drought in other parts – tells us that climate change has long become a measurable reality," she said.

American climate-focused investors are becoming a stronger voice, forcing large corporates like Chevron and Kinder Morgan to plan for and act on climate change.
Several large companies have already bowed to investor demands in terms of climate change mitigation measures. The reason: because major asset managers are demanding this. “It’s now widely recognized that climate change is a legitimate risk," says Aaron Ziulkowski, a manager at Boston-based Walden Asset Management in the story below.

Are you travelling to Russia for the FIFA World Cup next month? Why not go green this year? FIFA & the UN have teamed up to help spectators travelling to Russia to offset their trip's carbon footprint. For every signature received online, FIFA will offset 2.9 tonnes of CO2 - the average impact per fan flying to Russia! The idea is to eventually turn the event in a zero-impact affair.
“The Earth’s climate is changing due to human activity. We need to reduce the emissions that enter the atmosphere,” said FIFA’s Secretary General Fatma Samoura. “FIFA takes its environmental responsibility very seriously. As part of our twofold strategy, FIFA and the Local Organising Committee will offset all of their own operational emissions. Through the climate action campaign launched today, we will also support and engage with fans by neutralising the emissions of those who join us.”
WELL DONE FIFA!
