Human-induced global warming has been a reality and truth for decades. Passivity and denial have characterized politics, society and businesses. The effects of global warming are happening faster than predicted. The crisis is here and now. We have received many warnings over the years and done nothing. It’s time to act on the most important issue of our time, to secure a stable planet for future generations. This is why the Swedish renewable energy company Telge Energi launched the Children’s Climate Prize in 2016. To spotlight the climate issue from the perspective of the next generation, with the insight that the future at stake is theirs.

Telge Energi has realized that with a platform like the Children's Climate Prize, young people can be involved in change. This position should be used to create positive change in society and empower people to engage in environmental and climate issues. Therefore, the company will add 1 extra Swedish krona (SEK) to the prize money for each person who supports the winner’s initiative. Who the winner is will be revealed in November.
