Climate Witness Update: Dario Schwoerer
Since my Climate Witness testimony appeared on this site in August 2008, I have been participating in the TOPtoTOP expedition. Since 2002 we have been collecting good examples how we can protect our climate and share these hopes with school children in all nations we visit.
Today we are a team of young people from 33 nations running the program. On our tour we decided to cover all climate zones. The climate is changing in latitude but also in altitude. In response, we have embarked on a world record; an attempt to reach the TOP of each continent only by human power and nature’s force (wind and solar) and show that great achievements can be done in balance with nature. Along the expedition we show examples of nature’s beauty and promote innovations for a green planet and specially to protect our climate, in class rooms all over the world.
All this was only possible thanks to the patronage of UN Environment Programme. The patronage letter from UNEP was crucial to the success of this unique project and was the key to operate efficiently even on a small budget. Thanks to the recommendation of UNEP we have recieved support in each nation we visited.
So far we visited 40,000 students in more than 40 nations. The feedback from our presentations and workshops were just great and many students were participating in our Climate Solution Drawing Contest.
Most recently we were just south of Cyclone Hamish in our expedition boat and experienced all the oil on Morton Island!
Kind regards,
