5 years ago, I appealed to world leaders at the @unitednations to answer humankind’s greatest challenge with courage and honesty. Now, young people are making their voices heard to demand an urgent response to the global climate emergency. Today, UN Secretary-General @antonioguterres will be joined by @gretathunberg and more at the UN #ClimateAction Summit to spark the transformation we need to protect our planet and all its people. The race against the climate crisis is a race we can and must win.
