Read what 11-year-old Paula wrote in her letter about climate change.
During the United Nations General Assembly this week, the President of Austria personally delivered to US President Donald Trump a letter written by an 11-year-old girl from Vienna, Austria. Austrian President Alexander Van der Bellen also shared a picture of the letter on Facebook, where it has gone viral with over 10,000 reactions. "Mr President, climate change is real," writes 11-year-old Paula in her letter to Mr Trump, who has often denied climate change and called it a 'hoax'.
Paula goes on to urge Mr Trump to recognize climate change and find solutions to it along with other world leaders. "We only have one planet earth," she concludes.
