Well, young people across the world are speaking up against policy inaction and taking even world leaders to task but when I address the youth, my advice to them is to read up on climate change, and not be overwhelmed by data. I remind them that individual action can stem the biggest of tides because each little action we take today has an impact on tomorrow. Just small steps like refusing single-use plastics can cumulatively add to a hugely positive movement to protect our oceans and pristine environs. I ask them to learn about where things come from and where they go after being tossed away and become more mindful of consumption patterns. The next step would be to demand climate action from leaders and legislators. Not littering, planting trees, greening urban spaces, conserving water and energy. Every small step makes a big difference to mother earth. We also need to rediscover the joy of slow living, of not being in a hurry all the time. There is a lot of wisdom in pausing to smell the roses but of course, we must plant the roses first.
