Abstract
Abstract Since the 1992 Rio Earth Summit, there has been a surging network of climate youth movement (CYM) calling for an end to environmental injustice. In South Africa, while a handful have taken on the reins of climate activism, many remain nonchalant or the few outspoken ones face a greater hurdle of alienation from decision-making processes. To this end, the article draws from existing literature and surveys how young South Africans could mobilize themselves into CYM in order to reshape, reclaim and reconstruct their future in a changing environment.
期刊介绍：
The Environmental Claims Journal is a quarterly journal that focuses on the many types of claims and liabilities that result from environmental exposures. The ECJ considers environmental claims under older business insurance policies, coverage and claims under more recent environmental insurance policies, as well as toxic tort claims. Exposures and claims from all environmental media are considered: air, drinking water, groundwater, soil, chemicals in commerce and naturally occurring chemicals. The journal also considers the laws, regulations, and case law that form the basis for claims. The journal would be of interest to environmental and insurance attorneys, insurance professionals, claims professionals, and environmental consultants.
