My name is Sapphire Vital; I am 23 years old and I am from the Nature Island of the Caribbean, Dominica. I love the crisp smell of the morning air, the chilly sting of the wind, the sound of the birds, the brightness of the sky and the first taste of adrenaline as I set out on a hike. The journey that follows is often strenuous but it’s always worth it. Whether it’s standing at the base of a towering waterfall, on a mountaintop overlooking a glorious view or on the edge of a headland bracing the ocean breeze, my heart invariably fills with awe and peace. Earth's immense beauty and more so its purpose as our home, warrants we treat it with the utmost care. In recent times, humanity’s track record hasn’t been of good report. Human activity is known to be largely to blame for climate change and the havoc it has wreaked on our home thus far. One of my life goals is to fight against climate change and continually advocate for good stewardship of our planet.
