Last week our Future Leaders spoke with Florent Kaiser ⭐ Kaiser recounted a surreal moment from The Earthshot Prize awards in Singapore: standing on stage between Hollywood royalty, Cate Blanchett and actual royalty, Prince William. Acción Andina, Kaiser co-leads with Constantino Aucca, was awarded an Earthshot Prize in 2023 for its ambitious mission to protect and restore one million hectares of high Andean native forest 🌲🏔️ Kaiser is also CEO of the Global Forest Generation which preserves forest ecosystems in South America, conserve water and biodiversity, fight climate change, and diminish poverty. He shared his inspiring story with our Future Leaders, and other interns working across University of Cambridge this summer, highlighting the impact which young people can have on the direction of climate action 🌱 His advice to aspiring environmentalists: "Act now. We have the opportunity to make huge systems change if we act now."

Let's come together to support efforts to save our planet’s glacial history. These icy time capsules hold incredible stories and cultural heritage we can't afford to lose. By taking action now, we can protect them for future generations. #ClimateAction #SaveOurGlaciers #IceMemory #GlobalWarming #CulturalHeritage #EnvironmentalProtection #GlobalForestGeneration Sources: bit.ly/4daNUxb, bit.ly/3LB7erj

On challenges youth activists face, "It's easy to not listen to the things that we're saying - the things that we're saying entail changing entire systems and we are comfortable in the systems we've created." Xiye Bastida told Bloomberg Green's Kira Bindrim at #BBGGreenFestival.
