Dear Global Citizen,

I’m Vishal Prasad, writing to you from Fiji—a place where climate change is no longer a distant threat but a daily reality. Despite contributing less than 1% of global emissions, Pacific Islands face rising sea levels, intensifying cyclones, and entire communities being uprooted.

I’ll never forget visiting a village in northern Fiji devastated by twin cyclones in 2020. Families who lost their homes still live in tents three years later, raising children without privacy or security. Witnessing this fuels my fight for climate justice.

That’s why myself and a group of students from across the Pacific islands are calling for the world’s highest court—the International Court of Justice (ICJ)—to issue a ruling on what governments must do to protect people and the planet. This ruling would push countries to take stronger action and ensure those most affected by climate change aren’t left behind.

But to make this happen, we need to show the ICJ judges the human cost of this crisis—and that’s where you come in.

Join the movement by signing our petition to the ICJ. Your voice will send a powerful message that could inspire a historic decision, bringing justice and accountability to those who need it most.

Thank you for standing with us in this critical moment. Together, we can hold the world accountable.
