YOUTH ON STRIKE! documentary film and series

Australian students defied calls to stay in school and went on strike for climate change action. This is their story, told by them.

#DontLookUp is the most important film of the year. But what you do after seeing it and how you vote is much more important.

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

Last night I watched #DontLookUp. It was like seeing my adult life flash past me.
Even down to the morning TV show where I totally lost it while trying, for the 1000th time, to explain what climate breakdown would do.
All the anger, the frustration, the desperation: I feel it.

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

”World’s governments plan to produce more than twice the amount of fossil fuels in 2030 than would be consistent with limiting warming to 1.5°C”.
It can no longer be possible for politicians to get away with ignoring the gap between their words and action.

Huge climate strikes today across Australia. Tens of thousands of people. Soon the rest of the world will join in... #schoolstrike4climate #ClimateStrike

[School Strike 4 Climate Australia @StrikeClimate]

Why should we go to school if you don't listen to the educated? I'm striking to learn from my peers and community leaders. This is #ClimateStrike Ballarat.

[YOUTH ON STRIKE! documentary film and series @StrikeYouth]

Good luck to all the students and young people going on the #climatestrike today in Australia. We need action as we're in the middle of a #ClimateCrisis. If you're looking for inspiration, here's our series Youth On Strike! https://t.co/OWHWaGh4an

Terrible decision making and lack of leadership that ignores experts and science 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[Mike Cannon-Brookes 👨🏼‍💻🧢🇦🇺 @mcannonbrookes]

Absolutely gobsmacking that the Federal govt is torching $600m on a gas plant that:
- drives power prices up
- is already a stranded asset
- creates risk for other assets
- ignores all science & advice

Wilful, reckless ignorance is just bloody stupid 🤬

[YOUTH ON STRIKE! documentary film and series @StrikeYouth]

Being an Australian production, it saddens us so much that many of the negative and horrible comments made towards @GretaThunberg and featured in the film #IAmGreta are from other Australians. We have a lot to answer for as a country. Say NO to Sky News and News Corp #climate

[YOUTH ON STRIKE! documentary film and series @StrikeYouth]

This looks great!

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

On Monday 12/4 9pm BST episode 1 of “A Year To Change The World” will air on @BBCOne .
It’s a documentary series in 3 parts which followed me during my year off school and explores the science behind the climate crisis. @bbcstudios

We need climate action now.

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

Is this is confirmed, then it is truly groundbreaking to say the least.
And I don’t mean that in a good way...

HUGE WIN for nature and community! Vic govt rejects proposed Crib Point gas terminal in Westernport Bay for the unacceptable threats it would pose to the RAMSAR listed wetlands. Well done to our clients, @EnviroVic @vnpatweets and @SaveWesternport
