Kids from all over the world have collaborated to write this report on how to engage the next generation in the climate changes. It was presented with a speech at the opening of the IPCC in Oct. 2014 in Copenhagen in front of Ban Ki-moon and a bunch of world leaders. We heard Ban’s wife personally asked for an extra copy.

55 really cool kids from four European cities were gathered in Copenhagen for the Children’s Climate Summit 2014. They made a kick ass speech for a room full of politicians on how to involve kids and youths in the challenges of the climate change. We are humble and grateful for having designed their graphic identity.
