Teenagers against climate change
1. _______
Four teenagers in the USA have recently won an important court case against the Massachusetts state government to make them reduce greenhouse gases. The 2008 Global Warming Solutions Act says that all state governments must reduce greenhouse gases by 20 percent. In 2012, the Massachusetts state government hadn't done anything and so hundreds of young people signed a petition. The Massachusetts state government still didn't do anything, so the teenagers took the state government to court. The teenagers lost their first court case, but last week another judge decided that the state government was wrong and it must now improve traffic and use more renewable energy.
2. _______
The teenagers were working with Our Children's Trust, an organisation which uses legal action when local governments don't follow environmental laws. The organisation was started in Oregon in 2011 and they encourage and train young people to get involved in environmental change. Our Children's Trust knew that the biggest supporters of action against climate change are usually young people and so they wanted to help make their voices heard by governments who were not doing enough.
3. _______
The organisation believes that we must act against climate change urgently, so that the children of the future can have a clean and safe world to live in. They are involved in lots of similar cases with other state governments at the moment. They also make short films to educate people about the environmental problems we face in the world today.
