JEDCO 13 hours without power is not acceptable and makes no sense. What kind of service are you performing to your generators and solar panels? We need to have a good conversation. #SSOX

Global efforts to agree on a treaty against plastic pollution have collapsed. #SouthSudan's Joseph Africano Bartel told Newsday it's 'very upsetting and depressing'. Plastic pollution is clogging the Sudd, the vast swamp area, as well as #SouthSudan's rivers + streets.

Heavy downpour in Juba this morning. I am glad that the amount of plastic bottles being washed away is minimal. My next challenge is the single use plastic bags. Let’s get rid of them too. #SSOX
