Going Green - Net Zero launches new interview with Omnia El Omrani

 The Net Zero video series, created by youth to educate and inform the public about climate change and our transition to a Net Zero world, has launched a new episode featuring Omnia El Omrani, the first official Youth Envoy for COP27. In the interview, climate activist Philo Magdalene explores the challenges facing progress towards achieving Net Zero and the role of youth activism in bridging the implementation gap that follows COP conferences.

One of the key insights from the interview is the need for appropriate climate finance that works equally towards mitigation, adaptation, and loss and damage. Omnia El Omrani stresses that "we need not only action but financial mechanisms to really provide and help countries to recover and build back from the impact of climate we see more than ever." The interview also discusses the provision for funding to support developing countries vulnerable to climate change and how to make COP conferences more accessible to younger generations.

The Net Zero video series features interviews with climate scientists, activists, policymakers, and business leaders, providing insights and perspectives on the challenges and opportunities in the Net Zero transition. By bringing together experts and youth activists, the series aims to inspire action and drive progress towards a sustainable future.
