Combating Global Warming: UN Secretary-General António Guterres invites young climate activists to meet

UN Secretary-General António Guterres said he will start meeting regularly with young climate activists, saying participation by youth on the frontlines is of paramount importance to scaling up action to slow global warming.

“We are in a climate emergency. We do not have the luxury of time,” he added.

It is to be noted that young activists met with U.N. leaders last fall to demand a greater role in global decision-making and planning processes to tackle global warming.
