520 3 Children and young people represent 30 per cent of the
world's population. Not only do they represent the largest
group of people currently affected by climate change, but
they are also more vulnerable than adults to its harmful
effects. Children and young people also constitute the
generation that will be required to deal with the future
impacts of climate change and that will have to deliver
the very deep cuts in greenhouse gas emissions that will
be essential in the coming decades. This book is an
attempt to redress the balance. It brings together the
knowledge and opinions of 40 contributors - scientists,
development workers, and experts in health, nutrition and
children's rights - in an attempt to build up a clear
picture of what climate change means for the children of
today and tomorrow.
