.@CanadianPM @EU Fight with us! The Canadian Company #ReconAfrica has snuck past us and brought potential ecocide to our pristine ecosystems in the Kavango. Our ecosystem will be destroyed by a Canadian Company that harvests the 90% of the profits!⁠

⁠

.@UNESCO #ReconAfrica’s license overlaps with the KAZA Transfrontier Park, six locally managed wildlife reserves and a UNESCO world heritage site! Endangered African wild dogs, leopards, giraffes, birds and rare flora will be affected by ReconAfrica's drilling.⁠

⁠

.@UN_PGA @UNAfrica #ReconAfrica’s exploration license extends across the home territory of San peoples the First Nations of Namibia and Botswana. They were ghosted throughout the process. Amplify their voices. #MAPAVoices⁠

⁠

.@UNESCO @CanadianPM #ReconAfrica limits our already declining global carbon budget. And crippling the global efforts to move away from fossil fuels. We should not allow them to destroy such a globally important conservation area, under the guise of economic development.⁠

⁠

.@ForeignPoli_C @BotswanaRBLX @CanadianPM @JoeBiden Underground water in Namibia will not only be polluted but also depleted by #ReconAfrica ‘s oil drilling projects. How do we justify giving an overseas Canadian and USA company unbridled access to our most precious resource?⁠

⁠

.@BotswanaRBLX @HageGeingob Stop the #ReconAfrica project in Kavango land! The natural economy does not belong to the Namibian government, it belongs to the Namibian people. We were not consulted in this decision. The 10% Namibian shareholding will not reach the communities!⁠

⁠

.@GretaThunberg @EU Our current economic woes do not justify the selling out of Kavango land, ecosystems, and livelihoods of the people. Fight with us by sharing our petitions, and tell the Namibian and Canadian governments that this is unacceptable.⁠
