South Africa is a resource-rich developing country with an electricity grid that is heavily reliant on coal. Climate change is projected to impact South Africa in ways that will make many communities more vulnerable.

At this breakfast, we will discuss tools, such as carbon taxes and renewable energy, which can help to facilitate the journey towards a lower carbon and climate resilient country.
