More than 45,000 people, including world leaders and our own climate change minister, are descending on the resort town of Sharm El Sheikh in Egypt for COP27, the annual UN climate conference, which starts on Sunday night.
Rhiannon Mackie is one of them. At just 18 the Hutt Valley High School student is a climate champion who has organised protests across New Zealand, and has been running a campaign to get rid of fossil burning boilers from schools.
She’s concerned that COP is inaccessible to those most at risk from climate change.
