A Conversation with Youth Climate Leader Marina Melanidis

March 2021 marks the first anniversary of the global COVID19 pandemic. In light of this, we’ve dedicated the third episode of the Y Talk Climate podcast to learning about how COVID19 has impacted climate action and how to increase the capacity of all communities to advance climate action in a post COVID world. Our guest, PhD candidate Keila Stark, also provides insight into how the pandemic has impacted the planning and occurrence of international climate conferences and how organisations across Canada and around the world can increase the inclusion of youth at high-profile climate discussions during and after COVID19.
