Before his speech at the Munich Public Water Economy, Al Gore was presented a Plant for the Planet t-shirt by Felix Finkbeiner. The Nobel Prize winner was so impressed by the youth initiative, that he later referred to it in his speech as a good example of how people, particularly children can get involved.

At the same event Felix presented the youth initative to Christian Ude, Mayor of Munich (above) and spoke with Sigmar Gabriel about climate justice (below).
