Q: Can you please introduce yourself?
I’m Olivia and I play Character #3 and Howey Ou. I’m in grade 11 and I live in Ottawa.
Q: What does being in 12 mean to you?
It means so much to me. I can’t imagine not being in 12, or at least not being a part of it in some way. It means to me that I’m actually doing something. We’re creating art that’s impactful.
Q: What’s your part of the natural world?
Definitely moss. I love how like squishy and fluffy it is. And it’s always a nice shade of green
Q: What’s a specific climate change worry of yours?
That none of the little, everyday things that I do actually makes a difference. Does me recycling even do anything?
Q: What would you like to ask someone about Climate Change?
I’d probably ask my parents “Do you think that 12 is actually making a difference?”
Q: When the audience leaves 12, you hope they will ..
I hope they will have heard a line that really spoke to them. And that they’ll think about that line for a long time. Even if it’s just as simple as “I do, what a strange promise to make the person you love”
Q: What is your favourite word?
pearl
