MANILA, Philippines — During a meeting with the United Kingdom's King Charles III, a Filipino climate activist told the king about the Oriental Mindoro oil spill, according to the Youth Advocates for Climate Action Philippines (Yacap) on Friday. The climate activist, Mitzi Jonelle Tan, is Yacap's spokesperson. 'There's an oil spill in the Philippines right now and we need help. It's not getting any question or accountability, and really, majority of the world need climate finance and climate reparations, especially [those] battling the impacts of colonialism, making us more vulnerable to the climate crisis,' she told King Charles III.
