8-year-old Licypriya Kangujam from India is campaigning to make climate change lessons mandatory in schools. She says that the Indian state of Gujarat will now be the second state in India to include climate change as a compulsory subject in the school education. At only 8 years old, she's met Greta Thunberg and been to the United Nations climate change conference in Madrid. (Photo: 8-year-old climate activist Licypriya Kangujam. Credit: Licypriya Kangujam)
