Mr Sven from south Africa is an environmentalist cycling all the way from the tip of Africa to the top of the continent advocating for climate change effects and trying to stop the extraction of fossil fuels on the continent.
I was glad to meet him and hosted him at this time he is in Kenya advocating his activism for a better planet, he is ambassador of our Africa and he said he will be our ambassador for We Dont Have Time in his mission across different African counties, I conquered with this great message from him. "As humans, we are not passengers, we are all crew… Do what you can. where you are, with what you have for our mother earth"
Fautley, He advises Africa to highlight the effect of what he calls neocolonialist extraction especially to the fossil fuels companies.... He doesn't fear telling them..."Go solar, or go home,”
Sven, has been working with Greenpeace Africa and Extinction Rebellion since 2019 after his riding has seen him lauded by such groups. He is a great vegan supporter who doesn't support food wastage. Keep it up Fautley world 🌍 needs people like you.

His decision of refusing being just another keyboard warrior shouting from the sidelines, and deciding to hop on his bicycle and cycle all the way from South Africa to find out first-hand what is going on in different parts of Africa and amplify the voices of those directly affected,is very commendable. Does he document his journey, mission 🤔 etc?

I had a chance to meet seven and I learned alot through him and one lesson I learned from him is Minimalism and how it can impact our society and climate in such a capitalist environment we live in. Its so amazing how some people can CHOOSE to live with nothing and so much of the world is living well below human livable standards. I'm glad he has found happiness in his choice. It's my hope that we can instead forgo that 40th dress or that 20th pair of shoes and instead give to charitable organizations the money we would have spent. . I'm definitely a far cry from minimalism but i try the best i can to just not buy new things unless i really need it or unless i absolutely cannot stay without. I hope his course will create an impact and many will emulate. all the best to him and his future endeavours

@patrick_kiash true ! I think the future of activism is intrusive. It has no room for self preservation and it’s measured by how the least of us are doing not the best of us . So no matter how successful iam if the next to me is not as successful. Then I’m not being the kind of activist I need to be. And then have to give up some things so that others can have some things
