Description
Turning pity into power, the Pacific Climate Warriors reclaimed the narrative to bring a new meaning to climate action taking place in climate vulnerable nations in the Pacific Islands. A founder of the Pacific Climate Warriors and Beyond the Narrative, Fenton Lutunatabua joins Climate Curious to share why the narratives we tell ourselves and others about our experiences, history, and potential are vitally important to not just get right; but to show nuance and shade, and to honour people’s real feelings. Recorded live at TED Countdown 2024 in Brussels. Learn more about the Pacific Climate Warriors. Learn more about Beyond the Narrative. Created by TEDxLondon Produced by Josie Colter Edit, mix, master by Ben Beheshty Curated by Maryam Pasha Hosted by Maryam Pasha and Ben Hurst Hosted on Acast.
