About Us
We are students of all ages from cities, towns and regional hubs in every corner of Australia.
Although we live hundreds of kilometres away from each other, one thing unites us. Concern for the future of 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.
We have three demands of our politicians:
-
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 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.
