The New York Times published on 8 April 2022 a commentary titled "This 900-Mile Crude Oil Pipeline Is a Bad Deal for My Country--and the World" by Vanessa Nakate, Ugandan climate justice activist.
The author offers the environmental arguments against the 900-mile East African Crude Oil Pipeline to be built by French and Chinese companies from Kabaale, Uganda to Tanga, Tanzania on the Indian Ocean coast. Instead, the author argues that East Africans should focus on renewable energy.
