When it comes to climate change, why do youth matter? And how are democracy and the issue of climate change intertwined?

In this episode of Voices for Change: Democracy and Climate Action, Hari Sreenivasan, Correspondent at The WNET Group, discusses climate change and youth activism with Sophia Kianni. Kianni is Founder and President of Climate Cardinals, the world’s largest youth-led climate nonprofit working to promote climate education to those who don’t speak English.

Kianni shares in the interview: “You start to understand how we need to use local action as a catalyst to advocate for broader change.”
