YouTube Description
as posted by the channelClimate change could cause “unimaginable amounts of suffering” with those who have the power to stop being “the ones who are set on destroying it.” – Greta Thunberg
Climate activist Greta Thunberg explains how we are stuck in a “cycle of everyone is blaming each other people” including the media, corporations, politicians and more.
Thunberg stresses the importance of centring “our attention to those who are actually experiencing the first-hand consequences of this crisis.” She argues that people in Western countries often see the consequences of climate change “as something distant” stressing that “it's time to pass the mic and listen to those who are most affected.”
