Know the names of the brave young people who are trying to save the world. ClimateStrike GretaThunberg
On Friday, September 20, millions of people will take to the streets during the Global Youth Climate Strike toIt all started in August of 2018, when Greta Thunberg, then 15, began skipping school on Fridays to protest politicians' inaction on climate in her home country of Sweden.
But tomorrow's strike is not just for students. People of all ages are encouraged to join strikes taking place in over 800 locations across the US and in 150 countries. The strikes are set to be the largest climate mobilization in American history, raising awareness for the U.N.
