We are not alone in our fight for climate justice. There are many fierce and fearless activists and groups who are also calling for a radical and comprehensive response to the climate crisis. Some of the most notable are the incredible young people of the School Strike movement. They have already made a massive difference by using their collective power and making their voices heard. They continue to inspire us.
We are immensely proud to work alongside School Strikers. We joined their efforts to organise the Global Climate Strike on the 20th of September 2019, and in many areas around the country our activists and chapters help to organise local school strikes and demonstrations. But really, almost all of the credit for these fantastic actions belongs with the wonderful young people themselves.
The school strikes are organised by the UK Student Climate Network (UKSCN), Scottish Youth Climate Strike (SYCS) and Fridays for Future (FFF). Please support them any way that you can.
