KAMY adalah pergerakan iklim yang menyeru kepada tindakan iklim yang representatif dan demokratik di Malaysia. Peningkatan suhu 1 ° C dan ke atas akan mengancam survival sosial dan ekonomi Malaysia, dan kita akan berdepan dengan satu krisis eksistensial yang kritikal. Declare Climate Emergency Inclusive & Intersectional We call for representative climate action in Malaysia by empowering vulnerable groups and communities; youth, women, and the marginalised. A rise in temperature above 1°C would threaten Malaysia's social and economic security, and we would face an existential crisis. The climate crisis is a gender injustice issue and a human rights crisis. Serious political will We demand serious political will in climate change policies that are based on principles of peace, equity and democracy. Politicians must take a serious stand against the climate crisis. Ecological and climate breakdown must be answered. We call on the Malaysian government and the educational institutions to declare "Climate Emergency " to accelerate social and economic reforms that thrive on the fundamentals of regenerative development and climate-resilience. The right to climate information Everyone deserves to be informed, regardless of their race, gender, age, citizenship status, education and economic background. Who is KAMY? KAMY's mission? LATEST ACTIVITIES > Since April 2019, we have undertaken various strategies at the grassroots to empower communities through bilingual advocacy, climate protests, capacity building workshops and community awareness programs to reach a wider demographic.

It is transboundary and the most affected communities are the marginalised and the disenfranchised, the youth and women. COVID19 has all but exposed our unpreparedness and the fragility of the human system. As a response to the pandemic, we are refocusing our strategy to increase and rebuild the resilience of our frontline communities most vulnerable to the risks of Covid19 and the impact of climate change. We must bounce back. The pandemic has shown us a glimpse of an alternate future that is safe, should we act now. PUSH that reset button now ! COVID-19 has shown what we can do if we are united, and what the future holds. This is the beginning.

- Climate Crisis 101 | Klima Action Malaysia (KAMY)
Climate change is moving faster than us, and we are out of time PEOPLE POWER WHAT IS THE CLIMATE CRISIS? The rapid growth of human population and industry continues to alter natural climate processes at an unprecedented rate. Emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases have reached critical levels, significantly warming the Earth's temperature. The unsustainable economic system, driven by corporate interests, has caused CO2 concentrations to rise dramatically since the industrial revolution. As of 2023, atmospheric CO2 levels have surpassed 420 parts per million (ppm), reaching levels not seen in over 4 million years. IMPACT ON MALAYSIA In Malaysia, climate impacts are intensifying through more frequent heat waves and floods. Urban areas are experiencing dangerous combinations of heat and humidity that threaten public health, particularly affecting vulnerable populations. Marine ecosystems are under severe stress, with coral reefs facing increased bleaching events that threaten both biodiversity and fishing communities' livelihoods. Global temperatures have already risen by approximately 1.2°C above pre-industrial levels, leading to warming seas, melting glaciers, rising sea levels, and increasingly extreme weather events. Malaysia is particularly vulnerable to these changes. Land use changes and deforestation continue to amplify local temperature increases. Malaysia has lost significant forest cover, affecting not just biodiversity but also crucial ecosystem services like water regulation and carbon storage. Recent studies show that primary forest loss continues to threaten water security and increase flood risks. Sea level rise poses an increasing threat to coastal communities, with projections showing that many Malaysian coastal areas could face significant flooding by 2050. This creates cascading effects on urban migration, economic stability, and social inequality, particularly affecting marginalised communities, women, and children. Food security faces growing challenges as extreme weather events become more frequent. Recent years have seen crop damages from both floods and droughts, affecting not just agricultural productivity but also food prices and farmer livelihoods. Climate projections suggest these impacts will intensify without immediate action. IMPACT ON WOMEN Gender imbalances hinder the ability and potential of women to be actors in curbing climate crisis. For example, access and control over natural resources (water, land, etc.) , access to education and information , access to financial resources , and equal rights and access to decision-making processes to determine the response of women and men in the context of climate change Reduction of agricultural products due to floods or droughts reduces the financial safety net of families, and indigenous women. Health problems that arise as a result of environmental degradation such as dirty water, or prolonged flooding can cause death and impact on newborns such as malnutrition and so on. Lack of access to quality health systems exacerbate the disproportionate health risks The IPCC [International Panel on Climate Change] found that the climate crisis would exacerbate gender inequality and that it would result in higher workloads for women, the dangers of work inside and outside the home, psychological and emotional stress, and higher mortality than men In the context of the climate crisis, rural communities such as the Orang Asli are known as the "frontline community". They are among the first to be affected by the impact of the climate crisis due to their dependence on forests and natural resources. Loss of critical 'indigenous knowledge' such as the loss of herbal plants for the 'post-natal' recovery adopted by indigenous women. ACT NOW According to the latest IPCC reports, we are likely to reach 1.5°C of warming in the early 2030s without drastic emissions cuts. We're already experiencing severe climate impacts at the current 1.2°C of warming, with every fraction of a degree bringing worse consequences for Malaysia and globally. We need immediate & immediate action! Ecological and wildlife destruction should not be neglected by unethical and corrupt parties. We urge all parties to be aware of the critical issue of climate change in the socio-economic and political movements of the country. Can the future of Malaysia survive if we remain silent? Our younger generation will inherit a legacy of destruction and will point the finger at our failure to act. Malaysia is facing an existential crisis! When the government fails to ensure the protection, security and well-being of its people and the future of the country, it is the right and responsibility of the people to speak out! KAMY urges all parties from various backgrounds, sectors of society and society to participate and take action to urge national politicians to take the issue of climate change as a CRISIS!

SEKOLAH IKLIM Climate Report Heartbeat Voices from Indigenous Youth of Peninsula Malaysia Suara Nadi Belia Orang Asli Semenanjung Malaysia Executive Summary The Orang Asli youth of Peninsula Malaysia are at the forefront of the climate crisis, facing severe impacts from environmental degradation, legal logging, mono-crop plantations, mining, and inadequate emergency responses to natural disasters.

The report emphasizes the critical role of Orang Asli youth in climate governance, advocating for policy reforms that include their voices and safeguard Indigenous land rights, in line with the UNDRIP and SUHAKAM's recommendations.
