20 Cities In India Where The Global Climate Strike Is Taking Place TOMORROW

What Have You Heard About The Global Climate Strike? Here Are All The Details

This September 2019, marked as the Global Week for Future, the world is taking a stand for climate change. The alarming rates of rising sea level, the signs, and impacts of global warming, the overall destruction of our ecosystem is not just a petty issue but a rising global concern. A Global Climate Strike is being held worldwide where civilians, NGOs along with other organizations are protesting and marching to combat and resurrect the untamed climate concerns and make the world aware of sustainable consumption and production. It is the youth who have risen to the occasion and organized this march as their future is most at stake. The Climate Crisis won't wait for anyone! It's about time that citizens took up the issue.

A recent World Meteorological Organization data says the five-year period from 2014 to 2019 has been the warmest on record. There has also been a significant rise in sea-levels and CO2 emissions. If we don't act upon this now, then we would not have another chance to save our planet any further! 

Who is Greta Thunberg? 

Revolutionary Beginnings
When a girl of sixteen, Greta Thunberg started skipping school to protest outside the Swedish Parliament house asking for an action to be taken on the incessant climate changes, the world finally took notice of the issue. She initiated the #FridaysforFuture Campaign, which has turned out to be the fastest-growing campaign of the world, where she urged students to skip school on Fridays and stand for a strike. 

Strong Sixteen - How The Speech of A Sixteen Year Old Made World Leaders Think
The courageous and resolute girl shook everyone to the core with her passionate and fierce speech on climate change and action at UN’s Climate Action Summit on Monday. Her speech has been paralleled with that of Lincoln on the Battle of Gettysburg which was considered as a turning point during the civil war. It took her just about 4 and a half minutes to deliver a powerful speech. 
During her speech, she invoked world leaders about the ignorance of the most deadly issue that holds their future at stake and the commercial run for economic growth that is running basic necessities of living to the ground.

"This is all wrong. I shouldn’t be up here. I should be back in school on the other side of the ocean yet you all come to us young people for hope. How dare you? "You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words. People are suffering, people are dying, and entire ecosystems are collapsing. We are at the beginning of mass extinction and all you can talk about is money and fairytales of eternal economic growth." were her words during the speech.

Global Reactions
Her attempt at galvanizing a new path for climate change is not just a passive movement but has derived worldly support from International leaders and prominent figures. Shoojit Sricar, a notable India Director wrote in support of Thunberg, "I wish Mahatma Gandhi or Swami Vivekananda were alive to hear your appeal.. Then a U-turn was possible for climate change. We are committing sin and we will suffer... Myself feeling helpless and shameful." 

A New Global Strike on Friday the 27th September - Here's What You Should Know

In India, citizens across Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Kolkata, and other major cities, took to the streets on September 20th, and staged peaceful protests at city hubs, abiding by Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg’s evocation for mass protests to bring forth the issue to the civilians on climate change. The turnout as compared to earlier environmental protest was pretty massive. 

The Citizens of Tomorrow 
“We are unstoppable, another world is possible,” shouted one group. Another group of about 10 people chanted, “What do we want? Climate Justice! When do we want it? Now!” A faction cheered on, “There’s no Planet B!” In a direct call to deniers, Delhi youth sloganed on a collective spirit in the interest of this movement, “Climate change is not a lie, we won’t let our planet die.”
