About the book
They started with two. Sitting at the kitchen table, Anuna and Kyra shared their concerns about the climate and decided: enough was enough. On 10 January, in a city square designated by the police, Belgian students organized a protest against the current climate policy. There was not enough space for the 3000 students who showed up. A week later there were 12,500, the week thereafter: 35,000. Anuna and Kyra quickly became the faces of a protest generation that will no longer let itself be dismissed by politicians with reassuring words. In The Climate Is Us two young climate activists reach out a hand to each of us: to politicians and policy makers, to parents and grandparents, and to their peers. They’re naïve, as they put it themselves. But here that just means: unavoidable, just like the future, as the clock ticks on. For every euro this book earns, De Bezige Bij will donate half to Youth for Climate.
