'Climate doesn't wait': At COP28, Singapore wants to get more nations back on track with reducing emissions - CNA

The minister pointed out that by 2050 – the deadline crucial to meet the 1.5-degree limit – these youths will be the generation leading the country.

“They will be in their late 40s and 50s – prime of their lives. They will probably be business leaders, industry leaders, or even policymakers. And if they're going to be in the stewardship position, they should really get involved right now and to help steer this mothership of ours,” she said.

“We want to make sure that when they are making certain decisions, the trade-offs they are proposing, that they have a full picture of the constraints, of the needs of the people, industry and government.”

The summit also allows the youths to meet like-minded peers from across the globe and share opinions and aspirations.

“Climate is a global problem. For us to have a global solution, we need to be inclusive,” said Ms Fu. “Our youths need to take into consideration the views of other youth activists from other countries.”
