I argue that youth geographers should take care to engage critically with young activists’ actions, as well as wider political and cultural responses to them, in order to avoid furthering problematic ‘sustainability saviour’ framings of youth.https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/PoliticsGamesOnline SpaceYouth CultureFamily PracticesArticle1473-3277Children's Geographies
