This is a fantastic initiative.. Involving young people ensures that the next generation is both prepared and inspired to continue the fight for a sustainable planet. This law could indeed set a valuable precedent for other states and regions to follow.
Young people are not the only victims of climate change. They are also valuable contributors to climate action. They are agents of change, entrepreneurs, and innovators. Whether through education, science, or technology, young people are scaling up their efforts and using their skills to accelerate climate action.
And together we've planted over 150,000 trees. One tree is planted for every climate review written to an organization that is Open for Climate Dialogueâą.
How does this work?
The Climate Action App
We plant a tree for every new user
Welcome, let's solve the climate crisis together
Write or agree to climate reviews to make businesses and world leaders act. Itâs easy and it works.
