A seven-year-old girl of Indian descent named Moksha Roy has received the British Prime Minister’s Points of Light award for her commitment to environmental projects, which includes raising money for kids since she was three.
She started by donating her time to a UN task force and Archbishop of Canterbury-backed Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) project against microplastic contamination.

At age three, Moksha is the youngest sustainability advocate in the world. She keeps spreading awareness of sustainability among young people in the UK and around the world using radio, the press, and internet resources.
