I'm Robert, I'm 12 & I talk to kids, scientists, and organizations around the world about climate change & biodiversity. I award donations to speakers favourite charities (managed with mum).

Just your daily reminder that in 2018 the IPCC said we had 12 years left to limit warming to 1.5 and now we have 5 years left and we should be more than halfway through our efforts and carbon and methane have to peek this year and start dropping by next year.

I was honoured to hear Jane speak last week at NYCW at the Explorer's club about youth and climate and biodiversity. She was amazing. I am so sad to hear about her passing away. 2025 can stop being garbage anytime now.

Is ANYONE out there trying to host a talk at the Canadian pavilion at Cop30? The Canadian government says I can get accreditation if I am speaking or hosting a talk. Please share! Help me Obi-wan, you’re my only hope.

Tomorrow is climate day at the UN that they booted me out of because I’m only 12 so I can’t talk about kids who need a liveable future. My mum asked what I thought would happen & I said they’re going to talk about how they can make money on the climate crisis & we laughed & laughed & cried a little

Canadian Climate Change People: I’ve been invited to speak at #NYCW. The government has asked us not to travel to the states but my sister lives in NYC. Should I go?

To all you amazing NGOs out there: I thought I had accreditation to #COP30 but now it seems like not so much. Does anyone have any room on their delegation for a 12 year old #climatechange warrior (and his mum)?
PS - thanks for fighting the good fight
