THE INTERNATIONAL YOUTH CLIMATE MOVEMENT FOR COP15
A message to the Youth of the World:
We need to mobilize for ambitious goals
A. A Global Youth Climate Change Bill by the youth for the youth
Gathering Global Youth Ambassadors from each country to sign a Global Youth Climate Change Bill that is ambitious, fair, and binding. As young citizens, we are responsible in the development of global policies that provide ourselves a framework in moving on further in the green agenda.
B. Provide innovative solutions to ensure that the Millennium Development Goals are met by 2015
Climate change presents significant threats to the achievement of the MDGs especially those related to eliminating poverty and hunger and promoting environmental sustainability. Our generation must mobilize to provide poverty eradication methods and sustainable development objectives that ensures the achievement of the MDGs.
C. The Global Youth Climate Change Center
The center will become a symposium where the youth can gain more hindsight on the effects of the degradation of Climate Change, and work with leading academics to find innovative and constructive solutions to Climate Change.
The world is facing unprecedented environmental and social challenges. We need to gather with new ways of thinking, new cultural values, and new ways of organizing society. We have the resources and technology available. We have the ability to present innovative solutions to solve the global challenges that we are facing. We need to bring our international efforts together not only in the mitigation of Climate Change but also provide resources for the adaptation of the impacts of Climate Change. Copenhagen is the most appropriate time to develop an international youth climate movement.
We are in this together,
Esperanza Garcia
