New Plymouth Girls' High School Year 11 students, from left, Annie Larsen and Ellie Dinnison, both 15, want more people to be aware about climate justice. New Plymouth Girls’ High School students Ellie Dinnison and Annie Larsen have signed up for the 2020 Amnesty International Freedom Challenge as part of their social studies class. The teens, both 15, are keen to raise awareness about the link between climate change and human rights. “It’s looking at climate change as an ethical and political issue, rather than just environmental,” Ellie said. They wanted voters to take a genuine look at different party policies about climate change and the environment in order to make an informed choice at the polls.
