About the Movement:
The fast-growing #climatestrike movement was sparked by the actions of school kids in central Victoria who went on strike earlier this month to protest political inaction on climate change and the Adani coal mine. Harriet O’Shea Carre, Milou Albrecht, Callum Bridgefoot and their classmates kicked off the month of action, inspired by 15 year old Swedish student Greta who started striking this year and strikes with other kids every Friday.
Such is the magnitude of the issue the passion and actions of the kids, it has captured the attention of the national and world media already with stories appearing on sites including The Guardian, The Australian, SBS, Australian Geographic, The Daily Mail and enquiries coming in from as far as the New York Times and Deutsche Welle (Germany’s version of the ABC).
