Tell us about the incidents you’ve witnessed, the coping mechanisms you’ve employed, and the initiatives you’ve taken to address climate change. Your perspective matters, and it can make a difference.
We encourage you to share any photos, videos, or other media that help illustrate your story. These visuals can paint a powerful picture of the challenges faced and the resilience demonstrated in the face of adversity.
