Welcome to the UK Youth Delegation to the UN climate negotiations taking place from December 1-12 in Poland.
We are a group of young people from all around the UK who have come together to take action on climate change, the defining issue of our generation. We are here because climate change isn’t just about the polar bears - it’s about people. It’s about creating green jobs, a stable economy, stronger communities and justice for those most affected by its impacts.
As the first-ever UK Youth Delegation to the UN climate change negotiations, we are here to demand strong action. This December, governments from around the world will meet in Poland to put in place the framework for a new global climate agreement. But they are moving too slowly. In fact, we’re miles away from where we need to be, and we have only one year left to get there. We can do it, but we must move fast.
We, as young people, are engaging with our government representatives to demand that they take action. Join us and do the same!
