Our strength

Do not believe those who say that you cannot reach anything because you are young.
Bilge Nur Güven, climate activist, Istanbul, 17 years
Our biggest concern as young people in Turkey is the future. Which school should we go to and which career should we choose? What kind of opportunities can we have access to? On top of all this, we must face the risk of not having any future if the climate crisis continues at the present rate.
Dear peers! Open your eyes! Look around and consider the state of the world and the danger facing the future. Do not believe those who say that you cannot reach anything because you are young. Listen to science, not to what people tell you.
Adults! I have only one request to make to you: believe us young people! Open our way instead of putting obstacles in front of us. Don't be a handicap to us, let's walk together. Our time is limited. The future is our responsibility.
I am an activist, I walk with my activist friends. Join us.
