What Millennials Have to Say About Climate Change

To help drive forward the climate-change conversation, the World Bank has reached out to a group of people whose futures will be most affected by warming temperatures: Millennials.

Connect4Climate, a group within the World Bank that focuses on climate change solutions, launched a global film competition earlier this year challenging people between the ages 14 and 35 to weigh in on their experiences by making short videos. By the time the Film4Climate competition closed last week, more than 800 videos had been submitted from more than 150 countries, including Laos, Kenya, Germany, and the U.S. Winners will be chosen by a panel of climate change experts and professional filmmakers, including the former Maldives President Mohamed Nasheed and the Oscar-winning director Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy.
