In a most inspiring development, hundreds of Youth Climate Strike groups have appeared around the world after Greta Thunberg‘s courageous one-person protest in Sweden caught fire.

Our Mission
We, the youth of America, are striking because decades of inaction has left us with just 11 years to change the trajectory of the worst effects of climate change, according to the October 2018 UN IPCC Report. We are striking because our world leaders have yet to acknowledge, prioritise, or properly address our climate crisis. We are striking because marginalised communities across our nation—especially communities of color, disabled communities, and low-income communities— are already disproportionately impacted by climate change. We are striking because if the social order is disrupted by our refusal to attend school, then the system is forced to face the climate crisis and enact change. With our futures at stake, we call for radical legislative action to combat climate change and its countless detrimental effects on the American people. We are striking for the Green New Deal, for a fair and just transition to a 100% renewable economy, and for ending the creation of additional fossil fuel infrastructure. Additionally, we believe the climate crisis should be declared a national emergency because we are running out of time.
Our Demands
Green New Deal
A halt in any and all fossil fuel infrastructure projects
All decisions made by the government be tied in scientific research, including the 2018 IPCC report
Declaring a National Emergency on Climate Change

Preserving our public lands and wildlife
Keeping our water supply clean
