¡Hola! My name is Eugenia D'Asero and I am a 17-year-old student from SGS-Loma Verde Bilingual School in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
It Is known that climate change is already shaping people's lives and futures all around the globe. And as the generation growing up in the midst of the climate crisis, it’s hard not to feel the need to speak out. We have to bear the consequences of society's actions and take responsibility for them instead of pretending that nothing is happening. This is also why I believe young people should have the opportunity to take part in climate discussions. Even though we may not be the ones making the biggest decisions today, we will live with their outcomes for the longest.
Decarbonize showed me that if we have hope and act, we are capable of anything! And, as incredible as it sounds, most times a small action can have the biggest impact ever. That's why I'm extremely thrilled to be part of COP31 in a couple of days! I am certain this experience will be unforgettable and will provide me with invaluable knowledge!
