Описание к видео Eight-Year-Old Climate Activist Wants PM Modi To Pass A Climate Change Law | COP25 | The Wire

Meet Licypriya Kangujam, one of the youngest climate activists in the world who was born in Imphal, Manipur in 2011. This week she addressed a high-level event at the UN Climate Change Conference COP25 in Madrid. She spoke in the presence of John Kerry, former US secretary of state and several other world political leaders. One of her demands is that the Modi Government must pass a Climate Change Law in India. Licypriya is eight years old and this is not the first time she has addressed a conference on climate change. In 2018, she spoke in Mongolia about the threat of natural disasters due to the climate crisis. Licypriya has been called ‘one of the Gretas’ of the global south by a Spanish Newspaper. This came after she walked with Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg in Madrid. Licypriya wants to be a space scientist when she grows up. She plans to design a rocket that will take her to the Moon.
