People take part in a demonstration against climate change organised by 'Youth For Climate' on March 15, 2019, in Brussels.From Sydney to London, thousands of school students walked out of classes on Friday in a global student strike to protest against government inaction on climate change.
In London, thousands of students marched from Parliament Square to Trafalgar Square holding banners reading “The future is in our hands” and “We’re missing lessons to teach you one.” “As youths who will inherit the land, we gather here to demand that the government work with us to solve these problems,” said 17-year-old Thiti Usanakul, of student-led group Grin Green International.
In Singapore, where strict laws regulate public assembly, young people planned a virtual campaign on social media.New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, who has pledged NZ$100 million to cut greenhouse gas emissions, supports the strikes, saying teenagers should not wait for voting age to use their voices.
