'Vanessa Nakate continues to teach a most critical lesson. She
reminds us that while we may all be in the same storm, we are not
all in the same boat.' Greta Thunberg 'An indispensable voice for
our future.' Malala Yousafzai 'A powerful global voice.' Angelina
Jolie No matter your age, location or skin colour, you can be an
effective activist. Devastating flooding, deforestation, extinction
and starvation. These are the issues that not only threaten in the
future, they are a reality. After witnessing some of these issues
first-hand, Vanessa Nakate saw how the world's biggest polluters
are asleep at the wheel, ignoring the Global South where the
effects of climate injustice are most fiercely felt. Inspired by a
shared vision of hope, Vanessa's commanding political voice demands
attention for the biggest issue of our time and, in this rousing
manifesto for change, shows how you can join her to protect our
planet now and for the future. Vanessa realised the importance of
her place in the climate movement after she, the only Black
activist in an image with four white Europeans, was cropped out of
a press photograph at Davos in 2020. This example illustrates how
those who will see the biggest impacts of the climate crisis are
repeatedly omitted from the conversation. As she explains, 'We are
on the front line, but we are not on the front page.' Without A
Bigger Picture, you're missing the full story on climate change.
