Malawi has pleaded for support on climate change mitigation following serious effects of the phenomenon that have been hitting the country since 2015.
The call comes at a time when Malawi has faced effects of climate change despite minimal activities that has led to the trend.
Speaking at 22nd Conference of Parties (COP 22) at Marrakesh in Morocco on Thursday, Principal Secretary for the Ministry of Natural Resources, Energy and Mining Yanira Ntupanyama said Malawi has zero record of contribution on the serious effects of climate change.
Ntupanyama added that first world countries must consider supporting poor countries on the challenges that they face due to climate change.
“Malawi needs support in form of finance for adaptation, transfer of appropriate technology, and capacity building so that we are able to implement interventions that would enhance the resilience of our productive sectors and ecosystems that are negatively affected by these extreme climate events,” said Ntupanyama.
She further called for need to have urgent action on the face of escalating threats to humankind the change in the average weather pattern has brought.
no support anymore sell Malawi to visious countries those who can manage it. it was too early that those who fought for independence died they had a spirit of angry African for a better Africa. and it really happened. but the democractic idea is really a nightmare and doesnt work for monkeys otherwise try force it this the result. turning into shameless beggers. I ask all Malawians to give me a chance to be the king not the president. l will stay in my home no salary and have a good say and c
Boma lamalawi likanakhala banja, nkaziyo bwenzi atathawa ndithu chifukwa mwamuna wake palibe chimene amachidziwa koma kupemphetsa basi.
