Greta Thunberg, the 16-year-old face of climate change who launched Fridays For Future, is inspiring a new generation of girls to become 'eco-warriors.'
. Within the programme, which is committed to gender balance, two girls, Jenatie Ganesharajah and Stacy D'Souza, have come up with an object recognition software seeking to catalogue marine life, to contribute to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 14.
Jenatie Ganesharajah and Stacy D'Souza presented their solution in London. They wrote a poem about the journey of a plastic bag in the ocean. In addition to some AI newly acquired skills they also demonstrated their creativity.They understood that 3 billion people depend on marine and coastal biodiversity as the world’s largest source of protein, and that uncontrolled fishing leads to the rapid depletion of many fish species.
More girls are taking actions on climate change through technology and activism. This may well be the Greta Thunberg effect. For young women and girls, we know that role modelling is extremely important, and having an inspiring role model like Greta Thunberg is catalyzing actions across the world. Ahead of the
next week in New York where thousands of people will gather to discuss solving the world’s greatest problems, these young girls will hopefully inspire political and business leaders to take concrete action as well.
