UK: Climate challenge from the Arctic
Just ahead of Global Day of Climate Action, young British climate activist Mya-Rose Craig staged the most northerly climate strike ever, from a piece of broken-off sea ice in the Arctic Circle. Craig challenges UK stereotypes about climate activism, tapping into her internet following as a young ethnic minority ornithologist to promote climate activism; her organisation, Black2Nature, encourages Black people and people from the UK’s other ethnic minorities to gain equal access to the natural spaces from which they are often excluded.
