The Big Show: Youth vs Climate Change
Climate change is currently the greatest threat to our society. We are at a critical point and if we don’t act now, we risk the livelihoods of current and future generations. I recently sat down with University of Oxford student, Rupert Stuart-Smith to speak about climate change and its impact on young people.

This is an issue that has been staring us in the face for some time, yet our politicians have dragged their feet, ignoring evidence that show the effects of global warming on our planet. In response to this reckless and shortsighted behaviour, young people all over the world have made the decision to strike from school so that their voices may be heard. After all, it is their future that is most at risk.
We have added some useful information to the Bibliography on this post, if you are interested in learning more about climate change and seeing what you can do to have an impact.
