Here's what young COP26 attendees have to say to world leaders about climate change

"At the end of the day, our representation here is purely tokenistic."

Young environmental activists from across the world have convened at the annual United Nations Climate Conference, or COP26, and voiced their concerns over the barriers to entering environmental activism and the struggles of getting a seat at the table.

"If I had something to say to our leaders, it would definitely be, 'Take responsibility, not only of your actions but of your position,'" 18-year-old Mexican climate activist Camila Gonzalez told ABC News.

"We have left our future in your hands and for you to actually fix something, you have to be held accountable," she continued.

When asked if she felt young people's voices were being heard, Gonzalez shook her head no.
