VIII GLOBAL ENVIRONMENT OUTLOOK FOR YOUTH IN ASIA AND THE PACIFIC
Another ambitious goal of this publication is to empower young people to become involved in action and decision making to better protect the natural environment, improve human health, and create more sustainable and resilient cities and towns. And because all the Earth’s systems are linked, these environmental challenges are also connected to one another. The report addresses how these issues are linked, why youth should care about the environment and why they should act right now.
“Only if we understand, can we care. Only if we care, we will help. Only if we help, we shall be saved.” Jane Goodall, UN Messenger of Peace, Primatologist and Anthropologist
