NEW YORK (PRWEB) January 17, 2023
In the new Net Zero podcast, Climate activists Ricardo Delgado, Sofia Lana, Sam Okorie and Mphathesithe Mkhize report their takeaways on where the world stands on the Race to Net Zero from Venezuela, Nigeria, South Africa and UNESCO in Paris. Ricardo, Sofia, Sam, and Mphathesithe reflect on their interviews with Manuel Diaz, Rep Sam Onuigbo, Crispin Hemson and Alexander Leicht. The activists share key takeaways on global climate curriculum, the progress of clean energy, and why the world’s poorest countries are in dire need of support from rich countries on global warming.
Activists from the acclaimed Net Zero video series, launched at the beginning of last year, have conducted over 25 interviews with international climate leaders to monitor the world’s progress towards reaching Net Zero.
Young people will live with the consequences of climate change. In a survey of youths aged 15 to 24 by Plan International, nearly all — 98% — were concerned about climate change, and almost three-quarters — 74% — felt very or extremely worried. An overwhelming majority — 82% — don’t know how nations are tackling the crisis.
