A very good statement from the sides of the Youth; tomorrow’s leaders, policy makers and the upcoming victims of climate change. YES and YES! still much is expected from leaders of Africa in particular and World leaders in general. It is time to question how much is the saying of Africa in the global issues of Climate Change. More importantly, the coming Copenhagen’s Conference on Climate Change should be given attention so that the customized interests of our continrnt-Africa will be well spelt out.For that necessary preparations need to be accomplished by all relevant stakeholders in Africa Plus the role of African youth should be considered.

The youth today will and even hold alot of responsibility without their power in the current legal frameworks.
The energetic brains are employed to do things that affect our climate and causing extinction of natural resources of which they have less power to mend according to the laws of nature.

Every single day that passes, the economic crisis, climate change,wars, etc are making life effortless.
If we combat climate change, we shall uplift standards of living, unity of the globe hence sustain our economic and political crises.
Give me the power to make a policy and i will guarantee you a hundred years of safe life, but give the power to someone who expects not to live for more 20yrs and he will make a policy that lasts for less than 20yrs.

This means that the youth have been educated and their skills have evolved to make CHANGE coz they CAN.
Give us a chance to save our global climate and give us the means to adapt and mitigate the problems that have been caused already.
Have respect and mercy that empowers our chances to make CHANGES.

The reports say by 2050, the glaciers in the arctic will have all melted, our future generation water will mix with salty water!! Most of the Africa coastal towns and Island will have submerged, I will be 70 years old then, the young people will be looking up to me and other youth in this year. Yet we the youths are left out in the climate change talks, the decisions that are been made now will affect we the youth as the future leaders and mentors and as the parents, grandparents, great grand parents of the generations to come, When are we going to be taught how to hold the mantle of climate change must we take it by force.

We need to be involved if anytthing there ratio should be 50-50 youths and old

Very Depressing
