Sagarika Sriram was 10 years old when she started reading newspaper stories
about a planet in trouble, one of which was about turtles with plastic in their
stomachs. Sagarika knew she needed to do something. First, she joined a group
which organized cleanup campaigns in her home city, Dubai “The group helped
me understand what an individual can do and how I can really make a difference,”
she says.
Then Sagarika created Kids for a Better World. It’s a digital platform which
has brought together nearly 10,000 youths from all over the world with the goal to
create a greener world.
Sagarika is now 16. She’s part of a growing number of young climate
activists. “We’re the generation that is going to face the results if the climate crisis
is not dealt with,” she says. She believes even individual actions can create a
“ripple effect”. Sagarika says this can build momentum and can move things in
the right direction.
Kids for a Better World is for people aged 8 to 16. It teaches them about what
they can do to reverse climate change. They can grow food, plant trees, collect
recyclables and avoid using plastic bags. “This is the information which can help
change our future,” Sagarika says.
Dubai is a desert metropolis. Growing up there has made Sagarika very aware
of the need for action. Her city faces the risk of rising temperatures and its water
supply is shrinking. She believes young people can bring attention to these
environmental challenges.
Sagarika is all about small actions, but she has big plans. She’d like to go to
college in California. While she’s there, she’ll continue being an activist. She’ll
also be running Kids for a Better World. She hopes to inspire others to fight for a
greener planet. Others have inspired her. “We’re creating our own system of
inspirational change-makers,” she says.

platform.
