After her first year 11 maths exam, Aisheeya will be getting the train from Western Sydney to Town Hall Station to take part in Sydney's instalment of the strikes."[They] need to show us that they are willing to make changes for us and our futures.""My parents came from Bangladesh which is a country severely affected by climate change," she says.She's also watched her home city swelter under heatwaves in recent years.
"I live in Western Sydney where the effects of climate change are also felt to quite an alarming degree," she says."If you don't expose yourself to the science that's very clearly presented, then you're not going to try to understand what we are standing for," she says. "There's so much research going on showing what the world will look like, so many cities and countries will go underwater.
They should be fighting FGM, evil parents, left wing educators and abominations like the ABC.
How many would turn up to protest outside of school hours? I would bet that only a small percentage would actually care enough, the majority just use it as an excuse to miss some school and hopefully get their face on a 5sec clip bit on the news.
Highschool students are not pawns to push an agenda.
Watch and count how many professional political party banners and placards there are. Then you know whos benefiting from these kids.
To young to smoke, vote and should be at school learning how to spell, there's no spellcheck on a placard.......
And I'm sure most of these brainwashed brats require mummy and daddy to buy them the latest iPhones every year,drive them to and from school in their V8 4wds.
I’m with these kids 100% unfortunately can only do it on Sunday mornings the reason is some of us have to work.
Aren't our kids ranked 39th in the World just above Turkey for literacy skills.....and you want to ditch school?
Something needs to be done as this is the generation that will deal the governments decisions!!!
Kids are better of cutting down on slurpies in those plastic cups if they want to save the world.

Parenting gone wrong
I can’t see the older population doing much to voice their opinion. Hope the kids can make a difference.
Ha ha What a load of shit.. For every parent view living kid there, there will be 5 adult professional union protesters. Brainwashed. Learn to read write & spell. Leave the real world to the adults. MediaWank FakeNews
Good on them. It will be their planet to manage as we die. Who are we (or Gladys B) to tell them what to do? And remember, Libs: many will be voting in the next election. LiberalAus didn’t wake up and now the youth are going to wake you. auspol ClimateEmergency
When will these uneducated moronic children start pushing for the introduction of Nuclear Power Stations? You are being manipulated by the Greens. Like sheep.
Tell the kids to leave their phones at home and walk there barefoot and carry no paper or plastic or bottled products.
Stupid kids, adults brainwashing kids about an issue that happens naturally and always has.
and what do the boys think?

Learn how to spell first...
Perhaps if they stayed at school and studies history they’d learn the hoax that is climate change.
Insurance?
Climate change is a lie
'Young people are high-minded because they have not yet been humbled by life, nor have they experienced the force of circumstances. They think they know everything and are always quite sure about it.' Aristotle JohnRuddick2
You don't vote so you don't have a say what happens
I applaud these young people. It's their future they see being compromised.
Ignorant teenage girls. Led by calculating far left adult child groomers.
What rubbish, will all people who believe in climate change give up their mobile phones, tablets, lap tops & other technology which all requires coal in its manufacturing. Will they turn off air conditioners
They are completely delusional, the only way they can create a better future is to help develop advanced technologies that replace the old, polluting, or inefficient ones, because that process is limited by the amount of brain power applied to it, not by politics etc. Learn STEM
Will they be driving there, or walking
🙄🔫
What happens when Marxist union-run educators get to children Industry-Energy Create Wealth Wealth Creates Political Freedom and Means to Defend It Political Freedom Enshrines Rights of Individual Climate Change = Left-wing propaganda tool targeting basis of Western freedom
Pathetic nonsense! Try covering some pressing issues.
Trouble is - would you believe or even trust the backflipping LNP knowing their track record on lies before an election....? I certainly wouldn’t.
The kids need to research other countries like India to understand while we need lift our game it’s not going to make a difference
Thank you to our educators who have taught our students to read, think and analyse texts. This has enabled our future to see beyond the LNP rhetoric. Despite our leaders (trevorevansbne) attempts to mislead the electorate, these children are standing up where the adults don't.
They are doing it because they are being brainwashed, by the fake media and crooked politicians. It’s bordering on criminal.
Get to school - leaving adulting to adults.
So schools will provide supervision?
Fools.
They have been indoctrinated to believe the climate change hoex
In the 1960s it was protesting to ban the bomb. Here in the twenty-teens if the government would listen to ClimateStrike there wouldn't be the need for protest. Whether it's between bombs or ClimateChange it will be, ⫷T⫸ ⫷H⫸ ⫷E⫸ ⫷E⫸ ⫷N⫸ ⫷D⫸
You don't change the world by ditching school, I should know, I'm brilliant but dropped out, now I troll Twitter for kicks...
Standing up and marching for nothing more than their own future enslavement at the hands of the U.N. (aka big oil) And their moron parents, who are too lazy, or apathetic to educate themselves to this reality are letting it happen. A sad day indeed. climatescam agenda21
Are school kids striking in China? Asking for a friend.
Good on them at least they've figured out that sooking about something on Facebook and Twitter gets you nowhere. The one and only thing that makes pollies take notice is standing outside parliament house and telling them just what you think of them
“Fridays are pretty slack. Awards go for a couple of hours, then awareness groups, then sport but most of us just watch.”
Good to see.
It's there future Good on em
