Durban Climate Hero Abigail Borah: ‘I Am Speaking On Behalf Of the USA’

19 April 2015 by My Durban

A MyDurban selected video:

12/8/11: DURBAN, SOUTH AFRICA – Abigail Borah, a 21-year-old student from Middlebury College and member of the youth climate delegation, spoke out in the plenary hall as US climate envoy Todd Stern prepared to address the assembled environmental ministers at the Durban climate talks. From DemocracyNow! “I am speaking on behalf of the United States of America because my negotiators cannot. The obstructionist Congress has shackled justice and delayed ambition for far too long. I am scared for my future. 2020 is too late to wait. We need an urgent path to a fair, ambitious and legally binding treaty. We need leaders who will commit to real change, not empty rhetoric. Keep your promises. Keep our hope alive.”
