Climate change is a topic of global interest and has now become a serious issue for many vulnerable
countrieslike Nepal.Itneedstobe addressedalongwiththe sustainable agendas. With modernization,
lifestyle ischangingandevenbecomingcomplex in termsof the technology we adopt. In this context it
isadvisable thatthe youthmusttake that action because theyare professionalsof comingyearsand are
potently engaged in the major task concerning climate change and other environmental issues.
Additionally,youthstendtoadoptluxuriouslifestylewhichisbasedon the demand of those things that
use the non-renewable fuelsandemit harmful emissions and degrade the quality of environment. We
are losingourclimate andenvironmentaspeople,afterthe Industrial Revolutionbegan,wereurbanized
haphazardly with irresponsible cultural practices.
Increasingpopulationdemandsincreasing supply of goods. Due to this, many destructive activities are
takingplace such as the use of highdose of chemical fertilizer,deforestation for housing and industries
drainingchemical wastes to rivers, toxic gasses released from vehicles, dependency on fossil fuel and
manymore.Youths needtobe motivatedtoachieve quickerandefficient results. There is a saying that
all must “think globally, and act locally”. So, first educating the youth about the climate change issues
and taking necessary steps towards climate-friendly practices should be a priority. Developing
leadershipcapacityinthe rural youthandsupporting theminthe establishmentof the organization will
additionally add to their action against various emerging global challenges.
In thistechnocraticworld,the mediaplays a greater role in communication among communities. From
athletic,entrepreneurs,innovators,businessmen to the various kinds of celebrity we can see youth on
our screens.Increasedparticipationof those peoplein issues related to climate change and adaptation
policies and skills will help maintain local environment and encourage communities to adopt new
methods to deal with the climate change that is visible in our locality. We can, for example, engage
those personalities and communities to plant trees in a barren public land and in preserving the
community forestry, which will help conserve water resources, biodiversity and also provide
employment opportunity to local people who rely on forest products.
