What is the best practice of Youth action in climate change issuses. On the second day of the Global Conference hosted by LSU and GlobalFocus, five delegates from different countries shared their experiences about climate change. Zhao chunhong and I represented China Youth Climate Action Network talking something about what have CYCAN done in the past one year. I am happy that lots of young people from different countries though our project is very wonderful. It is funny, that everyone is surprise when I show the map where our 24 pilot schools located. I think a lot of foreigners is curious about China, but not many of them know the real situation in China, so this time is a very good chance for us to tell the global youth what China youth care about, what they are doing and their eager to communicate with world.
As the climate change is become more and more important, youth who is the future host of the planet are all willing to take our responsibility to do something for this issue. Beside Chunhong and me, three young people shared their experience. I think climate change is a very important topic to make us think globally, but what is most important is how to do something locally.
In fact, I am very nervous when I gave the presentation to so many people, it is my first time. Luckily, ten minutes is enough for me to give a overview of what we have doing in China. However, there still a lot for us to learn from youth from other countries, such as how to catch the attention of the audience, they can give out the message as well as give fun to them which is a very efficiency way let them to accept what we want to tell them.
Another thing inspired me is the way they organize the conference, the conference room is fashion which can easily catch the eyes of the young people .The whole conference is very relax and happy, without any boring speeches, the guest speaker are all very easygoing. That is what we should learn from them.
