| dc.description.abstract | Today’s youth will inherit a world made hazardous by greenhouse gases. As a general rule, those chiefly responsible for emitting these gases will be spared the full brunt of their effects. Age has become a clear fault line of this phenomenon: while today’s adults will experience some impacts of these emissions, adolescents and future generations will face their full force in time. | en_ZA |
