Climate strike: UK school pupils take part in call for urgent action

Former UN climate chief says it is time to ‘heed voice of youth’ as thousands join protest

Thousands of schoolchildren and young people in the UK are taking part in climate strikes with the support of a former UN climate chief, who said it was “time to heed the deeply moving voice of youth”.

Christiana Figueres, who led the historic 2015 Paris agreement, said the fact that children were so worried about their future they were prepared to strike should make adults take urgent action.

“It is a sign that we are failing in our responsibility to protect them from the worsening impacts of climate change,” she said.

Initial reports suggested thousands of children walked out of lessons in protest at the mounting ecological crisis, with several hundred congregating in Brighton and Oxford by mid-morning, and more than 1,000 gathering in Parliament Square in London.

I was just thinking the same about cunts like you, waste of space.

Makes sense. Perfectly logical.

What is the point of going to class and getting an education if there isn't going to be a habitable world to live in when they grow up?

[PoliTalker]

It doesn't take an education to know the big money powers to be have screwed up badly.

Never underrate the tories - like the pox, they go on generation after generation, despite all the sensible warnings!

I hope that all the parents and teachers that allowed this are taken to court and fined, attempting to politicise nine year olds is beneath comtempt. Sadly that's par for the course for the hard Left.

Well- when the REALLY fatal effects of global warming and climate change kick in I'm proposing that the worst offenders are taken out and shot.

CO2 is not causing any issues... Plants LOVE CO2, ya know...

It is not possible to measure global temperature. We don't have near enough thermometers...

Yup... They are trying to make their pupils into good little commie troops, brainwashed in their circularly-defined buzzword religion.

Global Warming is nothing more than a Void Argument, since it is not defined in a non-circular and quantifiable way.

Global Warming outright denies not only science, but logic and mathematics as well.
