Our natural world is in danger and we need everybody – industry, businesses, governments, civil society and citizens - to come together and commit to ambitious action to save it. Young people in particular have the power to make a difference and to build a future where people can live in harmony with nature.
#TheGreenTrack campaign mobilises young people in the fight to protect and restore our natural world.
The Green Track Stops events amplify young voices and give visibility to their environmental activities, particularly those on biodiversity and nature protection.
