WATCH: Understanding the climate change act

After signing the Climate Change Bill into law in July last year, President Cyril Ramaphosa has finally proclaimed the act, bringing it into effect as of yesterday. However, a large chunk of the legislation has been deferred and it comes at a time when the country has lost climate funding from the US and the Paris Agreement targets loom.

To unpack all of this in detail, Business Day TV caught up with Happy Khambule, who is Busa’s environment and energy manager and he is also a member of the National Energy Crisis Committee.
