Episode 2
When youth activist Greta Thunberg became a global leader against climate change, she inspired people around the world to recognize the already existing youth activists in their own communities. Earth Guardians, a nearly 30-year-old organization representing young activists, caught the attention of many Coloradans as they led the climate rally in October of 2019, which featured Greta Thunberg herself. In this episode, Leala Pourier, an Earth Guardians Youth Council Member, shares her own story as a youth activist and as an Indigenous woman fighting against the climate crisis.
