Hi,

Saw a post yesterday. Climate awareness first went viral 70 years ago thanks to a Canadian scientist named Gilbert Plass. 70 years later, most of the marginalised communities disproportionately affected by climate change also happen to be least aware of the science behind it.

Find out how natives are a resource in transferring a factual understanding of climate change to rural sub-Sahara Africa in the link below.

The article attached also discusses the prevalence of climate awareness in rural sub-Sahara Africa, and what awareness means to sub-Sahara Africa versus what it has meant to the global north.

Natives bridging the climate awareness gap
