3- CONECTIONS - Complexity in Sustainability (10-15 years)
Welcome to interactive presentation, created with Publuu. Enjoy the reading!
POVERTY. People who are struggling fnancially
often don't have the help they need when really bad
weather strikes. For example, during a drought, they
might not have clean water to drink or use in their
homes. Or, if a food destroys their house, they might
not have insurance to help pay for it to be rebuilt. Many
people in this situation grow their own crops to eat or
sell, but if the weather is unpredictable and their crops
fail, they don't have anything to fall back on. It's
important to make sure everyone has the support they
need to get through tough times, especially when it's
related to the weather.
CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE.
Almost half of all the kids in the world (that's 2.2 billion
kids!) live in places where they're in danger because of
climate change. But even though they're at risk, they're
often not included in plans to make things better and
safer. It's not fair that some kids have to worry more
about the weather and its efects than others, and
everyone should work together to make sure all kids
are protected.
WOMEN. All over the world, women are treated
unfairly, which can make it harder for them to get
enough food to eat. When there isn't enough food,
they're usually the ones who are hungry. When the
crops don't grow well, they might have to work in
dangerous jobs just to make money. And when there
isn't enough water, they have to walk farther to fnd it,
which can be dangerous. It's not fair that women have
to face these problems just because they're women.
Everyone should work together to make sure everyone
has enough food, safe jobs, and clean water, no matter
who they are.
MINORITY OR MARGINALISED COMMUNITIES.
Many communities in rural areas and those belonging
to indigenous groups around the world depend on
nature for their livelihoods, but climate change is
making it harder for them to survive. Their crops are not
growing as well as they used to, and there's not as
much rain as before. Unfortunately, the people in
charge often don't pay attention to these communities
or don't help them enough. This means these
communities are left on their own, struggling to fnd
ways to cope with the changing climate. It's important
that everyone works together to support these
communities so that they can continue to thrive.
LET'S TAKE ACTION NOW!"
A RALLYING CRY FROM YOUNG CLIMATE
ACTIVISTS JESSY AND ISAAC | OXFAM GB
People and communities worldwide are uniting
and advocating for a sustainable and equitable
future. It is crucial for global leaders to take bold
action by signifcantly reducing emissions and
providing extensive support to ensure that
communities can survive and fourish despite the
impact of climate change. By taking urgent
collective action, it is still possible to make
substantial positive changes for both humanity
and the planet.
“Climate change is real. And it’s really afecting us.
Let’s take action now!” Watch to see Jessy & Isaac
describe
the
devastating
impact
of
the
#ClimateCrisis in #Malawi. Join them & demand
urgent action now”
CLIMATE JUSTICE AND
HUMAN RIGHTS EXPLAINED
Human rights are intimately linked with climate
change because of its efect on not just the
environment but our own well-being. Its efects
will continue to grow and worsen over time,
creating ruin for current and future generations.
This is why the failure of governments to act on
the climate crisis in the face of overwhelming
scientifc evidence may well be the biggest
inter-generational human rights violation in
history.
