Global Climate Strike

With the failure of worldwide governments (not least ours in Australia) to take the actions needed to limit anthropogenic climate change, today is a worldwide day of protest at the need to do more. These schoolchildren were among the crowd of about 600 people of all ages at our local event - good for a small community. The PiPs show more images. There were speakers on the back of the white vehicle.
Here's a musical link.

...great these kids all over the planet! However, I'm afraid that it is already too late because of some counterproductive idiots all over the planet.

I fully agree with all the sentiments behind this George but if all the governments decided to ban cars tomorrow what a disaster that would be !!!!

A fitting combination for 'Sight and Sound', George. I know some demonstrations are due to take place here in the UK this weekend. Some weeks ago, when I was in Oxford, a demonstration took place and I took some photos. I will see if there are any photos I can use in the 'Sight and Sound' Group.

Thank you, George, for posting to Sight and Sound : Pictures & Music

Wow, so impressive. Great pictures, the message cannot be more emphasized. It was nice to see the worldwide dedication from so many people. So many activists making big noise. We have some serious movers and shakers who are recognizing their potential to make changes in this world, we will need all of them and more.

Thanks for this presentation, it is encouraging to see that the youth of today is understanding the seriousness of climate change.

Fantastic to see so many young people all over the world protesting for World governments to seriously apply themselves to commit a meaningful program for climate change.
I particularly like the placard that says. "Why study for a future we won't have"
