Sa pagdiriwang ng Linggo ng Kabataan, ipinahayag ni Vice President Sara Duterte na dapat kilalanin ng bawat isa ang kakayahan ng kabataan na makapagdala umano ng pagbabago sa gitna ng krisis sa klima na kinahaharap ng mundo.
“This week, we recognize and celebrate the youth's talent, creativity, and potential for driving positive change and building a more sustainable future for our nation,” pahayag ni Duterte nitong Lunes, Agosto 14.
“As the world confronts a climate crisis, we must acknowledge the youth's ability to affect change. By highlighting the importance of ‘Green Skills for Youth: Towards a Sustainable World,’ may we inspire the next generation of Filipinos to reduce their carbon footprint consciously and conserve natural resources,” dagdag niya.
Binanggit din ni Duterte na sa pakikipagtulungan ng Office of the Vice President (OVP) sa Department of Education, Department of Environment and Natural Resources, at iba pa, nailunsad nila ang “Pagbabago: A Million Learners and Trees Campaign.”

Layon umano ng OVP sa naturang kampanya na hikayat ang mga Pilipinong magtanim ng isang milyong puno sa 2028, bilang karagdagan sa pagtataguyod ng kahalagahan ng edukasyon at ng dental health.
“I urge you to courageously assume your role as environmental stewards and future leaders of the country and find ways to advocate for climate action. May you continue using your voices and abilities and serve as a role model among your peers and within your families and communities,” ani Duterte.
“Above all, make use of your education to make an impactful difference in the lives of those who are most in need. Let us work together to build healthier and more resilient communities founded on our shared values of inclusivity, diversity, peace, and sustainability,” saad pa niya.
