Inhabitants of China consumed tea thousands of years ago, according to archaeological evidence.
Water is the world's most consumed drink, and tea thereafter. It is believed that tea originated in Asia, but it is still being determined exactly where it grew first.

Mary Harm, a young Chinese Fijian woman, believes that young people's voices need to be heard loud and clear. She thinks that we should focus on amplifying the stories and experiences of Indigenous youth, especially when it comes to the impact of climate change on their lives and communities. By sharing their narratives in new and innovative ways, we can raise awareness and inspire action. Ultimately, this will lead to a more sustainable future for everyone.
