Ethiopia is vulnerable to the effects of climate change, including increases in average temperature and changes in precipitation. The country is striving to be climate neutral. Overhauling its rural economy to support more sustainable agriculture and regenerate degraded forest is part of the plan to achieve this.

全球搜索教育 is pleased to welcome Barry Nyuydze Berry.
巴里, why did you want to interview Thomas Minda?
何. Thomas is someone of great virtue with many accomplishments. 举个例子, he established the Gamo Ethiopian Meteorological Stations network. 这些 6 automatic weather stations have been operating in remote regions in the Gamo Highlands since April 2016. They are used to educate younger generations, for research and to translate meteorological data. This data in turn can be used to find solutions to adapt and mitigate climate change. I have worked with many people as a climate activist but I was truly inspired by Dr. 托马斯.
面试中最让你惊讶的是什么?
What surprised me was the scope of Dr. 托马斯’ 知识, 特别, his honesty about the big problems facing Ethiopia and other African nations in the race to net zero. His organization is doing important and inspiring work and people should support them.
What are your main takeaways for the Net Zero audience from your interview?
My first takeaway is the importance of both trusting and supporting the net zero process. Getting to net zero will be a challenge and we all need to be actively involved if we hope to achieve it.
Africa contributes the least to global warming but is also the most-exposed to the adverse effects of climate change. Better education is needed for people in African countries about how we address this problem.
Final take away – our world needs you. The world needs each of us to stand up for mother nature because she is dying.
Thank you Barry!
C.M. Rubin and Barry Nyuydze Berry
