St. Kitts and Nevis is buzzing with climate action this week as the Global Sustainable Island Summit brings together youth activists, policymakers, and energy experts to tackle the Caribbean’s biggest challenge: building a fossil fuel-free future. 🌴⚡
Youth Take the Mic
From solar-powered schools to ocean conservation apps, young innovators are stealing the spotlight at the summit. One 19-year-old delegate from Nevis told the crowd: "We’re not just the future—we’re fixing the present." 👏
Geothermal Energy in the Spotlight
St. Kitts’ plan to harness volcanic heat for clean power got major attention. With 35% of electricity already from renewables, the twin-island nation aims to be fully green by 2030—a blueprint for small states worldwide. 🔋💡
As hurricane seasons intensify, summit organizers emphasize: "Island nations aren’t just climate victims—we’re leading the solutions." 🌪️➡️🌱
