#YouthForClimate #youthstrike4climate #FridaysForFurture #ClimateEmergency @peopleandplanet

[Kate Whitaker @katewhitaker1]

THOUSANDS of kids outside @ScotParl today dancing, chanting, conga-lining and shouting “SYSTEM CHANGE NOT CLIMATE CHANGE”

Totally brilliant and joyful and political and GREAT

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

Tomorrow we school strike for the climate in 1769 places in 112 countries around the world. And counting.

Everyone is welcome. Everyone is needed. Let’s change history. And let’s never stop for as long as it takes. #fridaysforfuture #schoolstrike4climate #climatestrike

Barclays are not invincible to public pressure. @EdinburghUni it is our money that allows them to bankroll ecological destruction, human rights abuses and climate change- take a stand and #divestbarclays #gogreen2018

[Ed Uni People&Planet @EdUniPandP]

UK universities remain deeply complicit with climate breakdown through their investment and institutional links despite their "social responsibility policies". @EdinburghUni the hypocrisy must end #divestbarclays #gogreen2019

[Ed Uni People&Planet @EdUniPandP]

We cannot forget that whilst we campaign for banks to ditch fossil fuel projects, there are communities leading resistance on the front lines against the damage being funded by @Barclays #divestbarclays #gogreen2019

[Ed Uni People&Planet @EdUniPandP]

UK universities cannot claim to be "socially responsible" while aiding and investing in banks that fund climate change: @EdinburghUni must #divestbarclays in order to have any hope of being a green institution #gogreen2019

[Ed Uni People&Planet @EdUniPandP]

in response to @Barclays disappointing energy policy, students are demanding that Barclays, the dirtiest UK high street bank, ditch all fossil fuel investments #boycottbarclays #divestbarclays #gogreen2019

[Ric says "X.com is owned by a fascist" @ricjl]

At #ClimateStrike today: students in @EdUniPandP are campaigning for Scotland to stop extracting oil. Right on.

[Ed Uni People&Planet @EdUniPandP]

@EdinburghUni withdrawing direct investments in the fossil fuel industry isn't enough to resist the incoming climate crisis: you must clean up your investments further and #divestbarclays #gogreen2019

[Scottish Greens @scottishgreens]

🌍"I trust that in the face of this crisis you will take appropriate actions to support these brave young people." @Ross_Greer pens a letter to Scotland's school leaders #YouthStrike4Climate ✊ https://t.co/V2AYaBUsoZ

[YorkMix @theyorkmix]

Here’s the young York campaigners taking part in the #YouthStrike4Climate protest

[Kate Whitaker @katewhitaker1]

Crying my eyes out at these amazing kids outside @scotgov

Just spoke to a 7 year old who said “in 11 years I’ll be 18 and it will be too late”

They shouldn’t have to be doing this, but our leaders are not taking action so they have to

[Ed Uni People&Planet @EdUniPandP]

UK universities continue to profit from the fossil fuel industry, and must cut their ties with @Barclays
