On November 14, at the UN Climate Summit in Sharm el-Sheikh, Climate Alliance handed over the Green Footprints from 2022 to Simon Stiell, Executive Director of the UNFCCC.
Simon Stiell underlined that the kids are our future and they should keep doing what they're doing. "As adults and as policy makers, we have a responsibility to you to leave this planet in a better state than we found it and to provide you with the opportunities that you deserve, that we have had and that some of us have squandered. We have a responsibility to all of you." he adressed the kis directy in a short video message.
"The feedback from participating institutions shows that children are very aware of the dangers posed by the climate crisis. They are distressed and also frightened, thus hoping that concrete changes will be made to avert these dangers – a call to global decision-makers to work together in overcoming the climate crisis and ensuring a secure future," emphasises Andreas Wolter, Climate Alliance President while presenting this year's great results.
But the little climate protectors did not let their fears and worries stop them from finding creative solutions on how to make their own contribution to protecting the climate, which can be seen in all their good ideas and suggestions documented at Results 2022.
This year's handover was supported by the UN Youth Delegates from Climates Austria as well as a group of Indigenous Peolpes Delegates from Amazonia.
Also Leonore Gewessler, Climate Minister from Austria was present and expressed her great graditute to every single Green Footprint collector in a short video.
Many thanks to all supporters!
