What’s it like to witness climate change in action? Young people in countries from Israel to Indonesia have detailed their first-hand experiences – including struggles with hunger, anxiety, and the impact of wildfires. Their messages of hope and fear for the future of planet Earth were gathered by BBC Minute, a team which creates news bulletins for youth-focused partner radio stations around the globe. This is one of the team’s journalists, James FitzGerald, with 5 Minutes On why Generation Z wants inclusion in the urgent climate debate.
