MediaGlobal: Children's artwork on climate change raises $21,000 for UNICEF
The auction was organized by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the Natural World Museum. 27 pictures illustrating climate change – painted by children the world over – were up for auction, and they collected a total of $21,000 for the United Nation’s Children’s Fund (UNICEF).
Last year, Save the Children UK said that approximately 175 million children were affected by climate change induced natural disasters every year for the next decade. UNICEF will spend the funds raised from the auction on such disasters.
