CONCLUSION
"A policy that requires the education of Climate Change would be a game-changer as
it will awaken the minds of the youth," Carlos, student, Colombia.
By now it should be clear to you that youth are urging you to take immediate climate
action. In this paper, we have outlined the four areas in which we see it most vital that
climate action is taken. Our planet is like our bodies, the oceans are the lifeblood that
keeps it all in circulation. The forests are the lungs that allow it to breathe. The industry
is the backbone that makes it stand tall and proud. Lastly, representation, like our
muscles, is vital if we are to have the strength to do anything. Without any one of these
components, our body would collapse. If we don't take care of any one of these vital
parts of our world, we will destroy ourselves.
While we acknowledge that we are not yet educated enough to become climate
scientists, we are wise enough to see that something has to change in the world's
approach to this climate crisis. What we want you to take away from this white paper
may not be our exact solutions to the mentioned problems, but the spirit with which
those ideas were written. We want you,
like us, to debate possible solutions to
the problems, instead of debating
commas and colons. The legacy of your
generation depends on what decisions
you make for our generation today. Make
sure your legacy is not one of debates
a n d d i s a g r e e m e n t s , b u t o n e o f
agreements and action. Youth are rising.
We need you to rise with us. We need
your action to fight the climate crisis!
