Youth for Climate is a non-profit organisation led by youth aged 15-21, aiming to bring attention to climate change. They also want to make activism accessible to a larger demographic by keeping their actions easy to follow and simple to join.
Why sustainable?
This is a sustainable initiative, as the organisation is led by the generation that will be impacted most by the climate crisis. They aim to change climate policies and advocate for a better future. Changing climate policies would lead to more focus on sustainability and, for example, more renewable energy.
