- 'I care about the climate but my dad works in the oil industry' - BBC Young Reporter
- Date posted
- 4 years ago
- Description
- Stephanie is concerned about the impact burning fossil fuels has on climate change.
But her dad Andrew is a senior employee at BP and worked in the oil industry for more than 20 years.
The 13-year-old from Surrey questions: “Does this mean he doesn’t care about my future? Does this mean by default that I don’t care about the planet?”
Climate change is a hot topic at home. While Stephanie worries about the Earth's future, she hopes BP's sustainability commitments could make her dad part of the solution.
