10 Billion Strong Uganda Hub

A 10 billion strong local hub in Uganda that plays a vital role in promoting environmental awareness,engagement, collaboration and action within the community

[Initiative For Green Planet (IGP) @greenplanetUg]

We must speed-up the necessary just transition from fossil fuels to renewables.

Renewables deliver clean air, energy security & good jobs. And they are the cheapest source of electricity.

The end of the fossil fuel age is inevitable. Let’s make sure it does not come too late.
