About Us
We are school students from cities and towns across Australia.
Most of us have never met in person before but are united by our concern about our planet.
We are striking from school to tell our politicians to take our futures
seriously and treat climate change for what it is - a crisis.
Politicians can show us that they care by taking
urgent action to meet our demands:
Our Demands
-
No new coal, oil and gas projects, including the Adani mine.
-
100% renewable energy generation & exports by 2030
-
Fund a just transition & job creation for all fossil-fuel workers & communities.
Climate change is one of the biggest problems facing the world
and it isn’t being addressed quickly enough.
In Australia, education is viewed as immensely
important, and a key way to make a difference in the world.
But simply going to school isn’t doing anything about climate change.
And it doesn’t seem that our politicians are doing anything,
or at least not enough, about climate change either.
So, as our contribution to the changes we want to see,
we are striking from school. We are temporarily sacrificing our
education in order to save our futures from climate wrecking
projects like the Adani coal mine.

We are temporarily sacrificing our educations
to save our futures from dangerous climate change.
Action not words
Our planet earth is precious and can’t be replaced. Our politicians can show that they care about our futures by treating climate change for what it is - a crisis - and taking urgent action to move Australia beyond fossil fuel projects (e.g. #StopAdani!!)
to 100% renewable energy for all.
We want a safe future
Powered by the wind and the sun, not dirty and dangerous coal and gas. Free from extreme weather, drought, pollution and sickness.
