This past week, Gabon made history as the first African country to be paid to preserve its rainforest. With 90% forest cover, Gabon’s tropical rainforest plays a vital role in the region and beyond. To contextualize it, the annual carbon emissions absorbed by Africa’s tropical rainforests 12% of which are in Gabon are more than three times the carbon emissions of the UK.
The payment of $17 million is the first of $150 million from the Norwegian government scheduled to be paid under the UN-initiated Central African Forest Initiative (CAFI) scheme. The initial payment is mostly symbolic, as it is only 0.1% of Gabon’s GDP.

What does a fossil fuel-free future sound like? A new Swedish radio program is presenting this future with fictional news reports, interviews and debates from an imaginary time after the energy transition, mixed with mellow, techno road trip songs.
Vattenfall, an electricity company owned by the Swedish government, broadcasts hour-long advertisements at its electric vehicle charging stations called “Radio Fossil Freedom” that imagine a clean-energy future. Drivers can tune in while charging up to get a sense of what the future they are contributing to achieving could sound like.
Vattenfall started airing this future when it created the Museum of Fossil Fuels in Stockholm, which commemorates the fossil fuel era by allowing visitors to smell gasoline and listen to combustion engines rumble. During the pandemic, Vattenfall looked for a new way to bring the clean energy future to its customers, and so became Radio Fossil Freedom.
