Dear MEL Topic Readers,

Greta Thunberg: ‘Leaders failed us on climate change’

While they spend hours every day on gazing at and touching their smartphones, kids are worrying about their future. Climate changes. Although humans and all the other creatures on the planet are now facing an unprecedented threat in history, no effective actions have been taken collectively to cope with the threat. World leaders in politics and businesses are so influential in acting whether to increase or decrease greenhouse gasses but their attentions are mostly on their next elections or financial performance.

So, the general secretary of the United Nations set a stage to have conscious world leaders listen to what children want to say at the UN climate summit in New York. Even though less than one-third of the world leaders took part in the summit, the voice of children was heard. Now, is the world ready to take an unprecedented response to this unprecedented threat?

Enjoy reading the article and see the video and think how long or what will take to wake up the world.
