climate change affects all of us on planet earth. we are living through increasingly hotter global temperatures, rising sea levels, and more frequent extreme natural disasters. our planet is under threat and demands large-scale systematic change to tackle this climate crisis.<\/p>\n
as the earth heats up, the climate justice movement strengthens its fight for a livable future.<\/p>\n
