ZOZO: Hello. We are the climbing kids. We are here in Madrid at the climate summit.

KIWI: In eight years, the CO2 budget for 1.5 degrees will be used up. In just eight years.
What we need is massive action to stop the climate crisis. And we need it now. What we
see here at the climate summit is a lot of nice talking but no real action. With every delay,
there will be more people dying and more ecosystems collapsing. How dare you!

AMY GOODMAN: Yes, those were the climate kids, 11-year-old Kiwi and his 8-year-old
sister Zozo. The day before their protest, a Twitter account for the children, named
@Kletterkinder, or ClimbingChildren, tweeted, quote, “But isn’t this dangerous? Small kids
climbing to hang a banner? No it isn’t. The #ClimateCrisis is dangerous,” it said. The
Kletterkinder aren’t new to climbing for the climate. They have also staged protests in front
of the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin and at a Fridays for Future demonstration in Aachen,
Germany.

US can lead with W.E.C.A.R.E. to assure lasting energy security and a healthy climate.
Give Kiwi and Zozo and their generation life-promoting W.E.C.A.R.E. legislation. Let’s talk!
