SYDNEY/LONDON - Tens of thousands of school students around the world walked out of classes on Friday in a global strike to protest against government inaction on climate change.
“We have only been born into this world, we are going to have to live with this crisis our whole lives. So will our children and grandchildren and coming generations,” Thunberg said. “We are not going to accept this. We are striking because we want a future and we are going to carry on.” Protesters demanding action on climate change gather at Te Ngakau Civic Square in Wellington, New Zealand March 15, 2019.
