To world leaders, climate ministers, and politicians:

We are witnessing the biggest challenge to life on earth, but you are fiddling while the planet burns.

Your pledges won't stop climate change. Only real, decisive action can do that.

Our demands are simple:
  • Take decisive action to limit climate change to 1.5°C.
  • Stop new coal and oil projects.
  • End fossil fuel subsidies.
  • Shift to 100% clean energy.
Many of you have children of your own. It's their future on the line, too.

For the sake of our children, future generations, and life on earth, act now.

Give hope back to our children
This is terrifying! A major new study has found that up to 50% young people think that humanity is 'doomed'. Three in four youngsters are living with severe climate anxiety.

Let that sink in. It could be your child, grandchild, or even yourself feeling terrified about the world we will live in.

And there's every reason to be scared. Humanity is far off what is necessary to stop climate catastrophe. That's why we're launching a massive open letter to urge our governments to wake-up and act with real urgency. They meet for a major UN climate summit in days -- sign with one click now!
