A new report has raised alarm over the health impact of delaying the phase-out of coal in South Africa. Research by Greenpeace Africa, the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air, and GroundWork warns that keeping coal-fired power stations running beyond their planned shutdown dates could lead to as many as 32,000 additional premature deaths by 2050.The report also highlights serious health risks for children and billions of rand in economic losses, with pollution from Mpumalanga expected to heavily affect residents in Gauteng.To discuss this further, we're joined by Climate and Energy Campaigner at Greenpeace Africa, Cynthia Moyo.
