"We deserve to do more than survive. We deserve to thrive."
"Dear Matafele Peinem" is an absolutely beautiful spoken poem by Kathy Jetnil- Kijiner from the 2014 UN Climate Summit. The poem so artistically covers many issues that stem from the dangers of our increasing climate change. She shows the pain that comes with forced migration, lack of resources, poverty, and starvation, while showing that WE ARE doing so much to try to stop these damages. WE ARE trying to help our Earth and save our environment and protect our people. All the while, she does this while promising baby Matafele Peinem, that we will gain peace.
