Lillian Davis-Bosch is a 13-year-old 9th grader at Grace Church School in New York City. She cares about climate change because she believe it affects everyone and everything, and understands we need to take immediate action in order to make change happen.

She believes young people can make a big impact if they are educated not only on the problems, but also the solutions. One of the things that she is most passionate about is animal rights, and she believes that there are many connections between animal rights and climate change.

Lillian has been vegan for nearly two years. Her veganism was the spark that began her interest in learning about the environment and climate change. She hopes that one day she can make even bigger, systemic change in the world. She is inspired by the Gandhi quote, “Be the change you wish to see in the world.”
