Young Climate Warrior:
Theron was taught about the effects of climate change at school when he was 5 years old. He came home in floods of tears because he didn’t know that there were others like him, who felt compelled to do whatever they could, to try and save the planet! That was the start of Theron’s ‘Young Climate Warrior’ journey and he hasn’t looked back, ever since! #peopleplanetanimals
