Now what doestge following mean in practice?
“Empowering Women and Underserved Communities through Solar Technology and Climate-Resilient Housing Training in Antigua and Barbuda.”
Key words :
“Empowering women”
“through solar technology”
“Climate resilience housing training”
If the US$125,000 is used for anything else but furnishing and installing solar panels on a few houses, this is the usual BS.
We are taking people’s money under the guise of training.
What exactly is the training?
This is exactly the kind of program our communities need, practical skills that protect both people and the planet.
Solar technology and resilient housing training will not only help the environment but also create new job opportunities for those who need them most.
This administration have more heart than a pack of cards to be signing agreement when it comes to climate resilience. You people destroy you can’t be part of the solution. Just stop trying to fool people. Money trumps commonsense with this cabal
