Sophia Mathur

Sophia Mathur is a young environmental activist from Canada who gained national attention for leading a groundbreaking climate lawsuit alongside six other youth. At just 12 years old, she has been instrumental in challenging Ontario's climate policies, arguing that the province's weakened emissions targets threaten the rights and future of young Canadians. The case, which began in 2019, marks a significant legal challenge to government accountability in addressing climate change and has the potential to influence how such issues are treated under Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
