It's complex to explain reasons for attending #COP28 (Part of our @UniofExeter team took #WeArethePossible👉https://t.co/dRMgJAQAvC using science & the arts as a catalyst for change.) Then I saw this from Bashikhong village👇Thanks @LicypriyaK for showing it's URGENT to do more.

[Licypriya Kangujam @LicypriyaK]

When I touch my feet 👣 on my village Bashikhong in Manipur, India 🇮🇳, my community people gave me a heroic welcome today for my actions in #COP28UAE because my community is already the victims of climate change. I have no words except my tears 😭. ♥️🙏🏻😇

[Sally Flint @SallyF3]
