Climate Change: The DA will hold you to your promises, Mr Premier
14 August 2019
The DA stands ready to hold KZN Premier, Sihle Zikalala, to the promises he made earlier today to combat climate change during the Provincial Climate Change and Sustainable Development Summit in Durban.
Premier Zikalala made ‘big promises’ to tackle climate change, environmental degradation and the scourge of pollution in the Province – commitments which will be monitored by the DA with a view to ensure that they are acted on.
The DA welcomes the Premier's pronouncements, particularly around plastic pollution on our beaches and oceans the question remains - what significant action did he take while MEC for Environmental Affairs in the province?
Recent years have seen climate change raised as a massive issue. Regrettably, it seems that today’s event comes a little too late while being more of an elaborate PR exercise than anything else.
