Yeb's making his climate point by making a Pilgrimage to Paris

eb Saño, a former climate negotiator for the Philippines, is making headlines again. Saño is embarking on a 930-mile walk from Rome to Paris and plans to arrive just in time for the UN climate talks. He’s hoping for a “miracle” in which world leaders reach a deal that will actually result in meaningful action on climate change.



Will you join the Pilgrimage to Paris?

The 930-mile journey is actually the final leg of a journey that began in May. Since leaving the Philippines in May, Saño has traveled to Australia, and cyclone-ravaged Vanuatu in the South Pacific. He also met with survivors of Cyclone HudHud in India.

The journey is being called the “People’s Pilgrimage,” and Saño is encouraging people everywhere to make a pilgrimage of their own. “Anyone, anywhere can take part anytime up to the COP21 UN climate meeting in Paris this December,” says his website. “You can cross a continent, or only walk a mile. It’s up to you.”
