    #32 Movement that Matters I Licypriya Kangujam

    There is no age to join a movement (bringing changes in lifestyle) that will be the reason for our existence! Key Facts: [1:50] Born in the beautiful North-Eastern state of Manipur, Licypriya grew up in Odisha. In consecutive years 2018 & 19, she tells us that her home was hit by destructive cyclones, and that's when her family had to move to New Delhi. From cyclone hit to massive polluted air in Delhi, that was Licypriya's formative years which in turn inspired her  [2:40] The Child Movement initiative is motivated by the voices of children from around the world asking world leaders to take action - from paper to the real doings! [4:30] Heatwaves in parts of India and the adjoining sub-content recently were deadly in the last 100 years. One of the root causes of heatwaves according to Licypriya is the rising emissions causing overall global warming. [6:20] Massive tree plantation, reviving of forests that vanished due to deforestation, reducing carbon emissions by cutting down on fossil fuels, and replacing those with clean energy if we want to avoid further damage. [8:30] At home, we need to ACT (besides just relying on governments and industries). Licypriya has a word of advice for all children out there - CHILDREN MUST TELL THE PARENTS : a. To use bicycles for shorter distances b. To use public transport whenever possible c. To STOP using single-use plastic products d. To indulge in a family activity of planting trees   [10:30] Responsibility lies with every nation, however when it comes to climate adversity, developing and poor nations are at the receiving end - most times!  [16:15] Licypriya strongly feels that world leaders are listening more and doing less when it comes to climate emergencies. By the way, peaceful activism or enthusiasm of our children outside of their studies and playtimes isn't a very easy thing to manage The least we can do as mindful adults is to recheck our habits - what we buy, what we consume, how we travel, and overall how do we contribute to our mother earth. The only time we are left with is NOW! Follow us on Instagram // Spill the Tea Podcast Website Connect with Licypriya: Instagram // Facebook // Twitter
