Weekly Wrap-Up

Happy Friday everyone!

Its been a week, folks! Despite some serious lows, there is palpable change in the air! Young people across the world are leading a movement that is fundamentally shifting how we talk about and act on climate. They lead unapologetically, with moral clarity and conviction. As Dr. Ayana Johnson said in her speech at the NY climate strike last Friday:

But let’s be clear: youthful moral clarity is not the same thing as naïveté. Don’t let anyone tell you it is.

Young people are leading on climate, Indigenous groups are leading on climate, communities of color are leading on climate, women are leading on climate, and we should all pay attention, support them, and get out of their way!
