Climate Change Protest

On March 15, 2019, the youth of the world protested climate change. About 1.4 million young people from 123 countries skipped school to join the worldwide movement. The youth were striking for the New Green Deal, fair and just transition to 100% renewable energy, and an end to the creation of additional fossil fuel infrastructures.
In our home state of Rhode Island, college students, high schoolers and even some younger children gathered in front of the state house with signs and hearts full of passion for the cause. Through the drafty weather, creative signs were held up high and impassioned speeches were given. These people wanted their voices to be heard.
The youth were protesting that this is our world and we need to take better care of it. Signs were made stating facts of how climate change is affecting the globe and how they support the Earth. If you talked to any of those students, they would tell you the importance of taking care of the Earth.
Our generation has been left with pollution and greenhouse gases to deal with. This is our Earth and continuing what we’ve been doing to it will only leave us without the One and Only Mother Earth. “There is no Planet B” as many protesters stated.
