BBC Radio 1 - Radio 1 Stories, 10 Years To Save The Planet, Part 3

A year in the life of Erin Curtis, a member of Scotland's Youth Climate Movement.

Erin and her fellow activists feel that the older generations are failing young people and it's more important than ever to speak up and have your voice heard as a young person. 

She connects with Helena Gualinga, a 17 year old striker who grew up deep in the Amazon rainforest as part of the Sarayaku community. Erin also goes to Scottish parliament to discuss her group’s demands and find out what's being done to ensure Scotland becomes carbon neutral. With April's global climate strike cancelled, Erin and her fellow activists in Scotland have to take drastic action.
