David Obanor, a #NYCJuniorAmbassadors educator from @hczorg, is speaking on a panel about the importance of teaching about climate action and the @UN, and how he empowers his students to become local-to-global activists in their neighborhoods. #WorldOceansDay #TogetherWeCan

[NYC International Affairs @globalnyc]

David Obanor on why he feels privileged to introduce students, many from underserved communities, to the impact of plastics & climate change, & how he encourages them to take action: “I just light the fire” & they take it the rest of the way. #NYCJuniorAmbassadors #WorldOceansDay

“As an adult ally, the most that you can do is keep supporting these young people and reminding them that what they do actually matters.” — David Obanor #NYCJuniorAmbassadors #WorldOceansDay #TogetherWeCan

[NYC International Affairs @globalnyc]

His students live in communities that are disproportionately affected by #climatechange. As part of #NYCJuniorAmbassadors, David Obanor introduces them to the #GlobalGoals, the challenge of climate change & plastic use, & then empowers his students to take action. #WorldOceanDay

[NYC International Affairs @globalnyc]

He points out that students can bring information back to their parents, families, & neighbors — often translating into different languages and dialects — and help make climate action a priority in their homes & neighborhoods. #NYCJuniorAmbassadors #WorldOceansDay #TogetherWeCan

Amsterdam will ban gasoline and diesel-powered vehicles beginning in 2030. The city will offer subsidies and parking permits in an effort to convince its residents to switch to electric and hydrogen-powered vehicles.
