A Canadian teen's pledge not to have children until her government takes serious action against climate change is drawing support from young people around the globe.
Emma Lim, 18, launched a climate change movement this week called "#No Future, No Children" that includes a website where other teens can take her pledge.

"It breaks my heart, but I created this pledge because I know I am not alone. ... We’ve read the science, and now we’re pleading with our government." ...In Stockholm, Sweden, 18-year-old Isabelle Axelsson signed on."I am taking this pledge because I don’t want to give birth to a child that will feel the same climate anxiety and fear as I do," she wrote. "I don’t want any more children to have to face the consequences of our inaction."

USA Today: Smoke 'keeping temperatures cooler than average - Temps 'running 5-8 degrees cooler than forecast due to smoke in the atmosphere': Due to an area of low pressure that's hovering offshore, along with an area of high pressure over Canada, a northerly flow of air was funneling the smoke south into the U.S. from Canada, AccuWeather said. This was keeping temperatures cooler than average, as the smoke filters out the blazing June sunshine.For example, the weather service in Washington, D.C., said in an online forecast discussion Tuesday that "temperatures this morning have been running 5-8 degrees cooler than forecast due to the smoke in the atmosphere."
