Kids take a stand on the climate crisis

Whilst gritty Greta Thunberg is the most recognised young face of the youth climate change protests, globally more young people are calling for action from people in power. This Guardian article features just some of the kids across the world standing up to be counted and demanding better for their futures.

Young people have had enough of being patronised and patted on their heads for their noble efforts by grownups who won’t be around to see the worst impacts of their legacy. We need to support our children to make sure their voices are amplified beyond the school strikes and solitary vigils outside temples of power.

The kids are telling us they have had enough and we need to respond with action, not platitudes.
