In 2018-19, the ‘Greta effect’ on climate change activism cast a spotlight on the influence that young people currently have in the movement to tackle environmental degradation, such as climate change. While young people have more to lose from the effects of climate change, they can be flexible in their thinking and clear in their commitment to action. This descriptive paper focuses on the case study of IFEES/EcoIslam as an example of activism based on Islamic environmental teachings and their application for youth action around ecological issues.
