Invest in Our Planet: Community and Youth Activism Webinar
March 31, 2022 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Great Global Cleanup, Youth Leadership, and Creating Change in Your Own Community
Thursday, March 31 • 12 Noon – 1 pm
Please join us as we discuss the next generation of environmental actors at an Earth Day Live event on Thursday, March 31 at 12 pm EDT entitled The Next Generation: The Great Global Cleanup, Youth Leadership, and Creating Change in Your Own Community. This digital event will feature several youth activists who are bravely taking action to not only clean up the plastic pollution in our environment, but are also investing in ways to put an end to mismanaged waste.
The younger generations will be the ones to live with the most devastating effects of climate change and plastic pollution. Therefore, it is essential that leaders and change makers from younger generations step up and make a difference in their communities while inspiring their peers to do the same. Although young, they have immense power to disrupt the status quo.
Join us to learn about the innovators of our future.
The event will be approximately 1 hour and hosted on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn and on our webpage. By RSVP’ing, you’ll receive a reminder on the day with a link to view the event.
Current panelists include:
- Lefteris Arapaki — Co-Founder and Director, Enaleia (Greece)
- Lillith Electra Platt — Founder, Lilly’s Plastic Cleanup (Netherlands)
- Pedro Urioste — Ambassador, Limpa Brazil (Brazil)
The panel will be moderated by Colm Flynn, TV and radio host from Ireland, who covers international stories for BBC and RTÈ.
