East Africa’s heat and delayed rains are driven by atmospheric shifts amplified by climate change:
- ITCZ slowdown: Warming oceans distort the movement of key rain-bearing cloud bands.
- Neutral IOD: Fluctuating ocean temperatures trap moisture elsewhere, leaving skies sun-baked.
- Uneven onset: Rains hit western/coastal zones, while central regions dry out.
Global warming continues to make the weather less predictable and far more erratic.

On 17 October, 20 young people gathered at Smart Africa Group, Mikocheni, for a knowledge exchange organised by #REPower Tanzania and @JustGreentz, with support from 350Africa.
Through expert insights, panel discussions and group activities, participants explored renewable energy opportunities, green jobs, entrepreneurship, youth and women’s participation, and practical solutions in solar, wind and biomass.
The exchange highlighted the power of youth innovation, knowledge-sharing and climate advocacy in advancing Tanzania’s clean energy transition.

The energy crisis across East Africa and neighboring regions continues to unfold in two major ways: record-high pump prices in coastal hubs like Kenya, and severe fuel shortages in countries like Malawi, where motorists are forced to queue overnight.

MAJOR WIN FOR ADVOCACY!
The FG has affirmed it will boost local solar panel production before restricting imports - a direct result of stakeholder engagement led by @gifsep4climate & the #SolarPowerNigeria Campaign.
"Building manufacturing capacity before closing the door to imports keeps solar affordable for millions while giving local industry time to grow." - Dr. Michael Terungwa David.
This is how we protect energy access while building local self-sufficiency! 🇳🇬

As part of #REPowerTanzania, @GreenConservers & @GP_Tanzania joined efforts for the Grassroots Comics for Climate Action Workshop in Dar es Salaam!
Guided by @NathanMpangala & Baraka Machumu, local participants transformed real-life climate experiences into simple, powerful one-page comics.
No drawing skills required - just a pen, paper, and a voice. Grassroots comics bridge community realities with sector priorities to drive real climate justice.
Stay tuned, the comics are coming soon! 🎨

Fossil fuel giants are filling the halls at the Africa Energy Week to push more oil & gas extraction. But extraction isn't progress.
It’s time to #REPowerAfrika with clean, decentralized energy that puts local communities and climate justice first. #AEW2026

4/ Join us TOMORROW, Thursday, 15 October, from 5:00 PM EAT for a live X Space:
"Beyond the Deals: What Energy Do People Actually Need?" #AEW2026 #StopEACOP #EnergyAccess
3/ How much money is pitched for oil & gas isn’t how you measure energy development.
Energy development should be measured by affordability, reliability and who actually gets connected. #AEW2026
