Ebola's Generation: Why Climate Change Matters to Us

Why Climate Change Matters to Ami

So, the world waits on tomorrow’s news from Paris – the International communicies response to climate change.

Climate change matters to Ami because children in Sierra Leone, like Ami, age just 1, one of Ebola’s 12,000 strong generation, and all children of her age will bear the brunt of the devastating impacts climate change will bring if the world fails to take action NOW.

We’ll wait ‘til the dust settles but surprisingly perhaps, we can already see that more progress has been made than we thought possible. And this is good news for Ami.

It may be that limits are not ambitious enough; the funding to adapt ends up too little and the monitoring less than robust but we can see that there is hope if everybody steps up to the plate and we all play our part and Ami might get to grow up in a better world.
