We have oceans of waste. Amazon’s plastic packaging waste alone could encircle the globe 500 times: https://t.co/QqVFhbPvJH. We need to do better.

Use less, buy less, waste less.

#ClimateAction is being undermined.

There is a lack of ambition.

A lack of trust.

A lack of support.

A lack of cooperation.

And an abundance of problems around clarity and credibility.

It’s time to wake up and step up.

School strike week 251. Today, I graduate from school, which means I’ll no longer be able to school strike for the climate. This is then the last school strike for me, so I guess I have to write something on this day.
