On this episode of Rebellion: The Podcast, I'm chatting with Lilah Williamson. She is Metro Vancouver's very own Greta Thunberg. As a leader within the Sustainabiliteens, a youth climate organization. Lilah led a climate strike march with over 100,000 people through downtown Vancouver. Effectively shutting down the city and sending the important message to our leaders, that we care about the climate crisis, we're willing to come out to demand change, and we're watching. Hundreds of thousands of us, can't be ignored. At only 16, Lilah has proven herself to be a major player in the fight for an ecologically responsible future. She has rallied support and respect from political and community leaders of all ages. She's certainly earned mine. I hope you enjoy the episode, thanks for listenting Follow Lilah on Instagram @_lilahblue Follow the show at facebook.com/Rebellion-The-Podcast-113849850530268
