Vanessa Nakate is one of the most popular and richest Climate Activist who was born on November 15, 1996 in Kampala, Uganda.
In a 2019 interview with Amy Goodman for Democracy Now!, Nakate expressed her motivation for climate action: “My country heavily depends on agriculture, therefore most of the people depend on agriculture. So, if our farms are destroyed by floods, if the farms are destroyed by droughts and crop production is less, that means that the price of food is going to go high. So it will only be the most privileged who will be able to buy food. And they are the biggest emitters in our countries, the ones who will be able to survive the crisis of food, whereas most of the people who live in villages and rural communities, they have trouble getting food because of the high prices. And this leads to starvation and death. Literally, in my county, a lack of rain means starvation and death for the less privileged”.
In December 2019, Nakate was one of a handful of youth activists to speak at the COP25 gathering in Spain.
