00:09 It's very, a lot of the people are nice.

00:14 When I solve the little issue, I have a couple of cafes and at school

00:21 and people are always really nice.

00:22 They talk to me even if they can't buy it.

00:25 Yeah, everyone's just really welcoming.

00:28 And how have you found the reception to the Little Issue Project

00:32 and having those conversations with other people?

00:34 Yeah, pretty good.

00:35 I think through it I've gotten more confident talking to people

00:38 who are older than me, which is good.

00:41 Yeah, I think people are really nice about it.

00:47 I think a lot of the younger people now will probably be making a difference

00:53 and so that'll change a lot.

00:59 Hopefully climate change will be better.

01:02 You know, just lots of things as with around the world as well.

01:07 And like if you're talking to other young people now,

01:12 what would you say to them about if they wanted to see a change,

01:16 what do you think they should do?

01:17 Just do something about it.

01:18 If you have an idea, go for it, even if it doesn't work the first time.

01:22 Yeah, just try as hard as you can.
