The talk highlighted environmental challenges that South Africa faces as a country and in the world and this challenges young people to be the change agents in their schools, community and country and to leave a legacy that means something.
“Generation Earth is the solution for our future leaders where they make an effort towards making a change,” said Ella.
Generation Earth is successfully run by Ella Bella with the support of Nedbank and Tsogo Sun and launched a new council at Waterstone College.
Ella confirmed that the committee will be working closely with Mrs Paula Missing (educator) and principal, Mr Matthew Ridgeway.
