Demonstration culture

A survey by Swedish Sifo for WWF, shows that 6 out of 10 young people think of climate change at least once a week, and climate change is the one challenge in society that young people are most concerned about. Thunberg is a great example of true civil courage and keeps inspiring young people all over the world to fight the climate crisis. “For way too long, the politicians and the people in power have gotten away with not doing anything to fight the climate crisis, but we will make sure that they will not get away with it any longer. We are striking because we have done our homework and they have not. -Greta Thunberg, 16   Hopefully the participants will be inspired by this young girl and see how much one person can influence the world. Some might even want to join the school strike for climate movement and engage their local community.

We want young learners to be competent enough to understand that personal responsibility and political responsibility go hand in hand. I, as well as people in power, must take responsibility.
