Watch: Naked Capetonians Cycle for Climate Change (1)
South Africa - Cape Town - 11 March 2023 - Cape Town’s Twelfth World Naked Bike Ride took place on Saturday. It is an annual event in over 74 cities around the world.
The reason for this public display of skin is to make a stand against the burning of fossil fuels, which is contributing to climate change and ecological disasters. The signs of which are becoming more evident every day.
Participants rode as a collective to call for South Africa to embark on a just energy transition and switch from coal-fired power to renewable energy, which is the cheapest form of energy available.
Species extinction, ecosystem collapse, water scarcity, and food insecurity. The devastating impact of our addiction to fossil fuels is undeniable.
Climate change quite simply is the biggest threat that the human species and our planet has ever faced.
South Africa is one of the largest greenhouse gas (GHG) emitters in the world because 90% of our power is still derived from coal - the dirtiest of all fossil fuels.
South Africa’s top polluter Eskom is responsible for nearly 40pc of the country’s GHG emissions. While contributing to the climate crisis, it has also corrupted our energy sector, drained our taxes, and plunged us into darkness.
