Thursday 10 December, 2009--The British Council’s Climate champions put out a photo-shoot today to demonstrate to the world that they will do all in their power to push for a legally binding agreement here at the 15th Conference of Parties to the UNFCCC. A member said the group has been made up of youth all around the world who have been involved with efforts to reduce carbon emissions back home. Some of the initiatives taken up by them was recycling, education awareness, fundraising events through theatre, and dance to spread the word of climate change. Youth are the future of tomorrow, and their voice needs to be heard which is why the group is here to get the message across that they will not stand down. The group is made up of youth from countries like India, China, Japan, Korea, Kenya, Bangladesh, Nepal, France, Germany, United States of America and Australia and their main message is to "Seal the Deal."--ENDS
