12‑year-old boy commands the Worlds' attention at COP23

Climate Change is not a mere dream, are you ready to face life without earth?, have you contemplated what will happen if we ignore this reality?

These were questions posed by 12‑year old Timoci Naulusala of Naivicula District School in Tailevu who is one of the two oratory competition winners that are both in Bonn Germany with their parents and are involved in various events of COP 23.

Naulusala says combatting climate change is not about what, how or who to do it, it is about what you can do as an individual.

He says tropical Cyclone Winston had a destructive impact on Fiji and his own family.

Naulusala says we need to be prepared for what lies aheads of us and safety precautions need to be adapted and followed to keep us safe.

The youngster stressed on the world stage of COP23 that systems may change, humans may change but climate change is here to stay unless there is something done about it.
