Reposted from @quotabelle (@get_regrann) - “Impossible is not a fact; it’s an attitude.” ~ Christiana Figueres . . It’s a week where climate change is in the forefront, discussed and debated on the floor of the UN ~ preceded by the spotlight on an impassioned and informed 16-year-old, Greta Thunberg, who has galvanized young people around the world and prompted millions to take to the streets in the Global Climate Strike. A steady force in seeking near-term actions and long-term solutions is Christiana Figueres, the former Costa Rican diplomat and UN executive secretary, who was the “author” of the landmark Paris Agreement. She approaches this with optimism ~ in spite of massive challenges ~ because she grasps what’s at stake. . . #BeautifullySaid by #christianafigueres #climatechangeactivist #womenleaders #gritandgrace #quotabelle - #regrann https://www.instagram.com/p/B24vXv1F7rz/?igshid=1dm9dq2kjjt40
