We must equip young people to face the climate crisis
Clover Hogan discusses her inspirational career as a climate activist and campaigner with Leishaa and Urva. As young people, what can we do when we are experiencing feelings of grief, frustration, anger and sadness in response to the climate crisis, especially with the interconnectedness and complexity of the challenges? Clover has built a movement around the idea of being a 'Force of Nature' - a productive, collaborative and inclusive way to put hope into action, in response to eco-anxiety.
Climate activist, researcher on eco-anxiety, and the founding Executive Director of Force of Nature - a youth nonprofit mobilising mindsets for climate action, Clover has worked alongside the world’s leading authorities on sustainability, consulted within the boardrooms of Fortune 500 companies, and supported students in over 50 countries to realise their power as change-makers. Clover has taken the stage with corporate giants including the CEOs of P&G, Twitter and YouTube; alongside global change-makers such as Dr. Jane Goodall and Dr. Vandana Shiva; and interviewed the 14th Dalai Lama. Her TED talk, What to do when climate change feels unstoppable, has been viewed +1 million times.
