Over 4 million on #ClimateStrike today. In 163 countries. And counting...
If you belong to the small number of people who feel threatened by us, then we we have some very bad news for you:
This is just the beginning. Change is coming - like it or not. #FridaysForFuture

@GretaThunberg @studentstrike19 Hi @GretaThunberg, our Minister of education @jfrobergeQc and our PM @francoislegault don't want teachers to March even though classes are cancelled. The environment minister, Benoit Charette, however, will be at the MTL protest even though parliament will be working that day.

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

“Several Montreal academic institutions say classes to be cancelled so students can attend climate march.”

"... A generation of young workers well versed in workplace organizing tactics by the time they graduate high school could be the catalyst labour needs to build up the capacity to take on massive, illegal strikes that can win."

[Miriam Lafontaine @MiriLafontaine]

"Climate strikers are in a unique position to use their schools as a structure within which to run tests and practise labour organizing tactics – and, often without knowing, they’ve already begun to do just that." https://t.co/czrP25KGja

Notice of the dissolution of the comités unitaires sur le travail étudiant (student work unitary committees, or CUTEs) and the committees for the remuneration of internships. Because permanence inhibits vitality.

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

Before I started school striking I had no energy, no friends and I didn’t speak to anyone. I just sat alone at home, with an eating disorder.
All of that is gone now, since I have found a meaning, in a world that sometimes seems shallow and meaningless to so many people.

[Student Strike 2019 @studentstrike19]

"[I]t created the theoretical space to think of students as workers and to conceive of their studies themselves as a form of intellectual labor deserving of appropriate wages and suitable working conditions." https://t.co/qvkVSn4n49

Global climate strike: 20-27 September.

Our house is on fire — let’s act like it. We demand climate justice for everyone.

"Elizabeth Sarjeant and Enda Brophy interviewed Jeanne Bilodeau and Éloi Halloran on March 20, 2019, as the strike was unfolding. What follows is a lightly-edited transcript of that conversation." https://t.co/WBBTYsEX0f

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

On @frankieboyle's New World Order last night, I argued that preventing #climatebreakdown means overthrowing capitalism. I don't think there's any other BBC programme that would allow this.
