Jon Bonifacio is 24 years old and comes from the Philippines, a country that has been hit hard by climate change.
- Last year we had four typhoons in one month.
It costs huge sums of money and people lose their jobs, houses and homes, he says.
After that came the drought, and a large part of the country's farmers got rid of the harvest.
- My involvement in the climate issue began when I became aware of how climate change affects the Philippine population.
By 2050, large parts of our capital will be under water if we do nothing, says Jon Bonifacio.
He is in Stockholm together with other young climate activists from "Fridays for future, Most Affected People and Areas", activists from developing countries who have been largely affected by climate change.
Wants debts written off
Several of them will then travel on to the climate summit in Glasgow, COP26, where one of the key issues is that of climate finance.
There is a need to agree on how, and if, rich countries will help financially with emission reductions and climate adaptations in other parts of the world.
Something that Nicki Becker, 20, from Argentina thinks is a matter of course.
- We have large debts to countries that are historically responsible for climate change.
How can we change society without financial help?
Instead of us paying them, they should pay us, she says.
"100 billion is not enough"
During the climate summit in Copenhagen in 2009, it was decided on $ 100 billion in climate financing for low-income countries, a goal that has not yet been achieved.
The money would be paid out 2020-2024.
Jon Bonifacio says that sum is not close to what is needed.
"Several studies show that $ 100 billion is not enough to cover the damage that has already occurred," he says.
