children call for action
Paint for the Planet was an exhibit and auction of children's art which launched the global United Nations campaign "UNite to Combat Climate Change". The event featured a selection of paintings from UNEP's International Children's Painting Competition. Showcasing children's fears and hopes for the planet, the paintings are a powerful plea from children for leadership on climate change before it is too late.
