Emma Greenwood is a youth climate activist in Manchester, UK. She serves as youth MP of Bury and has brought a strong youth voice into local decision making with a focus on climate and mental health. In this conversation, we chat about the importance of youth leadership and the differences in how youth are incorporated into leadership between our two communities. We also discuss taking a step back, climate, and getting involved in activism. I loved recording this episode with Emma, and I'm excited for you to hear it!
