Children's Local Climate Conference
“Energy out of the toilet.”
“Slowly increase loans, to get fair trade.”
“All plants have to have solar panels.”
“Charge cell phones by solar energy.”
“Use the CO2 of your car for growing plants in the trunk of your car, so you can travel CO2-neutral.”
These were the best ideas of the children on the local climate conference in Arnhem. Six primary schools in Arnhem had delegated some of their students to the boardroom of the city. The city hall was full of positive energy and sustainable thoughts. The inspiring presentations were judged by a jury of an alderman of education, the youth ambassador of sustainability and the woman of the local nature centre. During the program the regional radio was present and the children were live in the broadcast. The students were talking with aldermen and councillors about the climate and their future led by the director of the Dutch climate alliance.
