WATCH:📢Lorraine Chiponda highlights how, in the #dashforgas, nations that haven't previously ventured into #FossilFuels are receiving investments in #dirtyenergy. She suggests considering the Non-Fossil Fuel Proliferation Treaty as a means to transition towards #RenewableEnergy.
Does the UK need more North Sea oil and gas extraction?
@C4Ciaran digs deeper into Rishi Sunak’s decision to grant new North Sea oil and gas licences.
600 million people in Africa are without access to #cleanenergy. The #dashforgas undermines the need for investments in #renewableenergy.

The profit-fueled #DashForGas is another neocolonial foray into Africa, expanding the 🇪🇺 energy frontier for more imperial resource-grabs!
😡This extractivism displaces 100s of mio. of people & #FortressEurope murders the refugees @Frontex
#ClimateJusticeIsMigrantJustice - What does this mean? How does it relate to the #EuropeanGasConference and Europe's #DashforGas?
European #fossilgas infrastructure comes #AtWhatCost? Forced Migration, Racial injustice.
Let's unpack it.🧵1/6

But what will more gas deals mean?
🌪️ Climate chaos
🌍 Destruction of lives&livelihoods across Africa, the target of Europe's latest #dashforgas
🥶🥵 High energy prices with people unable to afford heating or cooling
💰 continued record profits for the oil+gas industry

"Stop the reckless behavior of pushing for more oil and gas around the globe" - Neville Van Rooy from @DontGasAfrica.
We need to put a brake on the #DashForGas in Africa by neocolonial #FossilCapital and ramp up local renewables - among other things - as soon as possible.
3/5 The solution to the #EnergyCrisis is NOT a #DashforGas and #DirtyHydrogen in Africa ⛽️
🔒This will LOCK the continent into fossil fuel dependency while depriving the continent of its own #JustTransition 🌿

💡TIL: For deals made behind closed doors in the #EuropeanGasConference, people will pay with their lives.
TODAY we take to the streets of Vienna to remind conference attendees- there is no such thing as 'clean' neocolonialism ☠️
#DashforGas #DontGasAfrica #BlockGas
We’re outside the Marriott hotel where the gas lobby politicians and banksters are meeting behind close door to sign new gas deal that spill disaster to communities and the climate.
#dontgasafrica: Africans want to have a voice in the energy discussion that’s happening, & want to own their energy future. More fossil fuels, the #dashforgas, would simply mean more poverty, colonialism & exploitation. #PowerToThePeople
2/4
Extractivism in Africa was colonialism, is colonialism, & will be colonialism - if we don’t stop it.
#powertothepeople #blockgas #dashforgas
Powerful words from Lorraine Chiponda (Zimbabwe) at #PowerToThePeople in Vienna: the #DashForGas is nothing more than the continuation of centuries of energy colonialism, exploitation & immiseration.
That's why we're here to shut down the European Gas Conference!
A video-🧵 1/4
These are the voices being ignored by the EU in its current #DashForGas in Africa. We're putting the profits of the #fossilfuels industry before people and the planet. #DontGasAfrica
It’s time for the world to ban fossil gas and other dirty, dangerous, obsolete and inappropriate energy systems! #DontGasAfrica #AUSummit
Whilst there has a been a lot of discussion at #COP27 on the #dashforgas in #Africa, this is clearly not the right solution, and risks distracting from the support for climate resilience Africans really need - #renewables are the way to go. 5/12

Wealthy Western nations facing an energy crunch are eyeing 'natural' #gas in Africa 🌍 at the expense of supporting green #EnergyTransition in poorer countries, climate activists at #COP27 charge https://t.co/2NvpsVTkyb #EnergyDay #DashForGas

“They will argue that the #dashforgas is good for development. We know the history of Africa, and know that it will not. Because if it did, we would not have the #inequality and lack of basic services and access to energy, that we have in the continent”. @TasneemEssop @CANIntl
Instead of investing in⛽ fuels in Africa and building new "northern streams" that will💰finance the climatic crisis and dictators, we need to support renewables♻ in 🇺🇦, in the center of 🇪🇺 and maintain 🌍democracy. #DashforGas
As @ecologistas puts it, this new #dashforgas in #Africa is a new form of colonialism from the @EU_Commission, jeopardizing AGAIN the continent's development and #JustTransition.
