This International Women's Day I want to send climate love to this inspiring young woman with all my heart! ❤
Ayisha Siddiqa is a 24-year-old human rights and climate defender from Pakistan. An interesting fact about her is that she uses poetry as a form of protest to bring humanity back into the conversations around climate change. Her original poem, "So much about your sustainability, my people are dying," was a powerful rebuke of leaders' inaction on climate change at the annual U.N. Climate Conference in Egypt. 🍀
The way she represents the youth and children of the global south is remarkable and not to mention extremely important because they are the ones suffering the most in the climate crisis caused by the most developed countries in the world. They are the ones who are casually overlooked and they are also the ones who received thousands of tons of trash from Europe. It's time that the leaders of the world take responsibility and offer help to those left behind in the climate crisis.

@walter_lungayi I hope so, but it's sad that the older generations ruined it for them.
