This is where Greta said her now well known speech which really opened a lot of eyes of people at the summit.

students all around the world have been inspired by Greta Thunbergs speech and organised a worldwide strike. so on the 20th September, students across Australia  skipped school to participate in the “School Strike for climate action”. around 100,000 students in Victoria took part in the Melbourne strike demanding changes to climate change.

  1. Hello,
    Greta does seem to be a catalyst for students all over the world to fight and protest climate change. Do you agree with her views?

    Your post was interesting, but after the first paragraph, it seemed to jump into another article rather abruptly. Be sure to reread prior to posting to ensure that the post is clearly written.

    I look forward to reading more of your blog in the future.
    Best wishes,

  2. Hi Jordan,
    It seems that you are really into climate action. Do you look up to Greta? I also think that she is an amazing inspiration to youth to speak up. If you could chose one thing to help out the earth, what would be your first thing to tackle?
