How young activists on the climate front line find hope amid crisis

Disha Ravi and Selina Leem are youth climate activists campaigning for change both globally and for their respective countries, India and the Marshall Islands. These countries are facing significant threats due to climate change, from flooding and rising sea levels to biodiversity loss.

Not only do the activists advocate for increased urgency regarding climate action, but also for high-income nations to be held accountable for their disproportionate contributions to climate change.

We caught up with Ravi and Leem at Generation Hope, a series of events and workshops at the Natural History Museum, London, which brought together young climate activists from around the globe to discuss how climate change and biodiversity loss are affecting their regions, and what we can do about it.

Despite working in a sector that can be stressful at times, both Leem and Ravi remain hopeful, bolstered by their communities, to continue to fight for their generation and the next.
