Speaker: Chiranth Agarkhed, New Providence, New Jersey, United States
How (and why) are you taking action on climate change solutions in, for, and with your community?
Chiranth Agarkhed: Uh, hi, I'm trying to go ahead. Um, I'm from United States, New Jersey. Um, so I'm taking climate action in my community rated it because of the last year's wildfire. It really showed me the severity of climate change, um, with climate change, helping fuel the wildfire and the drastic effects the wildfire had on us even though we were really far away. Um, it scared me, um, to imagine what people in Canada must have gone through who were like right next to the wildfire. Um, and especially with my family is there. Um, so, yeah. Um, I take climate action right now by trying to do what I can. Um, I volunteer, um, and to help plant forests. Um, I try to save energy in my day to day life and do small things like that. Uh, that's about it.
