Caribbean Youth For Climate Change Action Conference

Developing Island States have been experiencing the effects of climate change, and British High Commissioner to T&T, Harriet Cross, believes that people's behaviours need to change to radically transform the world. Speaking during the Caribbean Youth Climate Change Conference, Ms. Cross said UK and Italy will host a Climate Change Conference at the end of this year with four key goals in mind, one of which is cooperation among States. Deputy Regional Chair of the Caribbean Youth Environment Network, P'Della'P Stanley, said she was pleased that youth people had a platform to engage in safeguarding the Caribbean's natural resources. The Conference was meant to promote greater youth involvement and awareness of climate-related issues.
