The ChinaAfrica Project posted on 25 June 2021 an analysis titled "The Impact of China's Financing for Coal on Climate Change and Agriculture in Africa" by King Carl Tornam Duho, Ghana-based economic consultant.
The author notes that in spite of China's commitment to climate-friendly policies, it continues to fund coal projects worldwide, including in Africa. The pollution caused by coal-burning plants has a detrimental impact on crop production, which harms African agriculture.
