The Great Nile Migration in South Sudan 🇸🇸 is the largest recorded land mammal migration on the planet 🌍. Every year, millions of antelopes, gazelles, and other wildlife move across the vast landscapes of the Sudd wetlands and Boma-Badingilo ecosystem, creating one of nature’s most spectacular and least-known wonders. A hidden treasure of Africa, right here in South Sudan. #VisitSouthSudan #TheGreatNileMigration #ExploreSouthSudan #AfricanWildlife #NatureAtItsBest @AfricanParks

In 2024, global power capacity grew by 585 GW, with #renewables contributing 564 GW—a commanding 93% share, while non-renewables added only 21 GW. This signals a structural shift in how the world secures its energy. Scaling renewables is no longer just a climate goal, it’s a strategic imperative for global energy security and resilience.📊 Read more: bit.ly/43wt1eh

Dorcas' Didi' Lekganyane, 32, was stabbed multiple times allegedly by her partner in their home in Bramley, Johannesburg, on 11 July 2024. It is alleged that police responded to a domestic violence incident when they found Didi with multiple stabbing wounds. Her partner was also in their home, allegedly trying to commit suicide after murdering Didi. He was taken to the hospital, where he was placed under police guard. Police confirmed that as soon as he can appear in court, he will be charged with murder. Didi was an academic and internationally respected scientist. In June 2024, she was announced as one of the @mailandguardian 200 Young South Africans in the "Climate Change & Environment" category, celebrating her important work and passion. Fly high, Sister. #womenforchange #sayhername #JusticeforDidiLekganyane #justicefordidi

Today's report from @theIPCinfo on Sudan is deeply alarming. Over 24 million people are affected by hunger and famine is rapidly spreading. Urgent action is needed to find a political solution and prevent further suffering.

Great video. Would be good to know how this is financed - do the villagers pay fees for irrigation etc?

If more #renewables solutions are deployed to meet #3xRenewables, more communities can be empowered & reap the benefits of #EnergyTransition. 📽️Watch how solar-powered irrigation system in Rwanda is becoming beneficial for local women.⤵️
