Homosexuality is unAfrican ?

Somizi Mhlongo is one person who has came out to challenge this heated debate on a television program Interface .His views are that,homosexuality is birth oriented and therefore people are not supposed to charge other people as this is their personal right.With a new constitution in South Africa which recognises gay marriages ,Somizi feels empowered ,"i dont care what other people say about my being gay  ,people can kill this body but my spirit is gay............i dont give a sh**t!"said this in a disgusted manner on national television.

Homosexuality in Zimbabwe is totally un acceptable ,and is viewed as dirty ,gross by the society ,immoral decay by the religious leaders .

Individuals and climate change activists and policy makers must come up during COP 22 in Morocco, and ensure this is done. For over 40 years, the fossil fuel industry have known that their products including oil, coal, and natural gas are the primary causes of global warming and the resulting climate change worldwide.

The rise of fossil fuels as a major threat to human wellbeing and safety was reflected in last month’s 2020 Global Risks Report from the World Economic Forum which for the first time, saw environmental dangers fill the top five places on the list. Weapons of mass destruction used to feature highly but now classed as much less likely thanks in part to nuclear non-proliferation treaties. Now the fossil fuel driven climate crisis which disproportionately affects Africans is listed as the world’s major threat. “African countries investing in fossil fuels risk creating stranded assets and an unmanaged and disorderly transition from fossil fuels.
