Only teenagers can save the planet!

As if you didn't know it already, it's been confirmed by one the cleverest chaps around - James Martin (who predicted the internet-world years ago) has now said that only teenagers can save the planet from poverty, war and climate change. And he's given us a name - the 'transition generation' (hey, it's not as catchy as 'generation why', but it works for us).

"Things are going to get more and more turbulent as we go along, and the dangers will get more severe," he says in The Guardian. "The job of the transition generation is to get humanity through the canyon with as little mayhem as possible into what we hope will be smoother waters beyond." See? Teenagers RULE.
