Briana Frauen of Samoa said that as much as we are passionate about being here, we should not be here. Our pain, our suffering, our tears and our suffering should not be what is necessary to take action. We already know what we need to do. We need to break out of the fossil fuel era, we need to break away from the industries that are causing this loss and despair.

The world is heading towards grave danger
Many environmentalists are calling the conference, which runs from October 31 to November 12, as the world’s last chance to change the course of the fight against climate change.

He said that despite the updated climate targets by many countries, the world is still not paying attention to the climate catastrophe that could become a bigger threat going forward.
