A climate champion is the one who plays a central role for an organisation to reduce their carbon emissions. They are the focal point for an organisation's efforts in reducing their carbon footprint and thus play an important part in making change happen.
In many countries and communities, youth are taking action on climate change mitigation and adaptation. Diverse initiatives include educational, awareness-raising and behavioural change campaigns. Youth also engage in climate change projects within different national and international organizations.
