== Comments by school and government officials ==
The strikes have also been criticised as [[truancy]]. Prime Minister [[Theresa May]] of the United Kingdom criticised the strikes as wasting lesson and teaching time.<ref>{{cite web |title=Theresa May criticises pupils missing school to protest over climate change |author-first=Alan |author-last=McGuinness |date=15 February 2019 |work=[[sky news]] |publisher=[[Sky UK]] |url=https://news.sky.com/story/theresa-may-criticises-pupils-missing-school-to-protest-over-climate-change-11638238 |access-date=12 March 2019}}</ref> Australian Prime Minister [[Scott Morrison]] called for "more learning and less activism" following the strikes.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.news.com.au/technology/environment/climate-change/why-scott-morrison-is-worse-than-tony-abbott/news-story/ac9c3a43a0097e668b5e4ab4406bcb4a |title=Scott Morrison, student climate strike: PM calls for ‘less activism in schools’ |website=www.news.com.au |access-date=2019-03-16}}</ref> Australia's Education Minister [[Dan Tehan]] suggested that if school students feel strongly about a cause, then they should protest in their own time in the evenings or on weekends.<ref>https://www.reuters.com/article/us-climate-change-youth/australian-new-zealand-students-kick-off-global-climate-change-strike-idUSKCN1QW01S</ref>

In New-Zealand, there was a mixed response from politicians, community leaders, and schools.

School strike for climate, also known in various regions as Fridays for Future, Youth for Climate or Youth Strike 4 Climate, is a growing international movement of pupils and students who are deciding not to attend classes and instead take part in demonstrations to demand action to prevent further global warming and climate change. Publicity and widespread organising began when Greta Thunberg staged an action outside the Swedish Riksdag (parliament), holding a sign that read "Skolstrejk för klimatet" or "School strike for the climate" during August 2018.[2][3]

Climate Strike 2015

In 2015, an independent group of students invited students around the world to skip school on the first day of COP 21, the UNFCCC Climate Conference. On 30 November, the first day of Climate Conference in Paris, 'Climate Strike' was organized in over 100 countries and joined by over 50000 people.[4] The movement focused on three demands, 100% clean energy, keeping fossil fuels in the ground, and helping climate refugees.[5]

Greta Thunberg and other early strikers in 2018

Greta Thunberg's bicycle in Stockholm on 11 September 2018: "The climate change must be treated as a crisis! The climate is the most important election issue!"

On 20 August 2018, Greta Thunberg,[6] then in ninth grade, decided to not attend school until the 2018 Sweden general election on 9 September after heat waves and wildfires in Sweden.[2] She asserts that this move was inspired by the teen activists at Parkland Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida, who organised the March for our lives.[7][8] Her demands were that the Swedish government reduce carbon emissions per the Paris Agreement, and she protested by sitting outside the Riksdag every day during school hours with the sign Skolstrejk för klimatet (school strike for climate).[9] On 7 September, just before the general elections, she announced that she would continue to strike every Friday until Sweden aligns with the Paris Agreement. She coined the slogan FridaysForFuture, which gained worldwide attention. She inspired school students across the globe to take part in student strikes.[10]

Inspired by Greta Thunberg, massive school strikes started in November 2018. In Australia, thousands of school students were inspired by Thunberg to strike on Fridays, ignoring Prime Minister Scott Morrison's call for "more learning in schools and less activism".[11] Galvanized by the COP 24 Climate Change Conference in Katowice, Poland, in December student strikes continued at least in 270 cities[10] in countries including Australia, Austria,[12] Belgium, Canada,[13] the Netherlands, Germany, Finland, Denmark, Japan, Switzerland,[14][15] the United Kingdom and the United States.[10][16]

In 2019, strikes were organised again in the countries listed above and were organised for the first time in other countries, notably: Colombia, New Zealand and Uganda.[17]

The largest mass strikes to date happened on 17 and 18 January, when at least 45000 students came out to protest in Switzerland and Germany alone, against insufficient policies on global warming.[18][19][20]

In several countries, including Germany and the UK, pupils asked to change laws to reduce the voting age down to 16 years so they could influence public elections in favour of the youth.[21][22]

Belgian environment minister for Flanders Joke Schauvliege resigned on 5 February 2019 after falsely claiming the state security agency had evidence that the school strikes in Belgium were a "set‑up".[23]

In early February 2019, 350 Dutch scientists signed an open letter in support of the school strikes in the Netherlands. The letter reads "On the basis of the facts supplied by climate science, the campaigners are right. That is why we, as scientists, support them."[24]

In England, on 13 February 2019, following the open letters supporting Extinction Rebellion in 2018, 224 academics signed an open letter giving their "full support to the students" attending the School Strike for Climate action.[25][26] Then, on Friday 15 February, more than 60 actions in towns and cities within the United Kingdom took place, with an estimated 15000 strikers taking part.[25][27][28]

Climate scientist Stefan Rahmstorf, Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, addressed a Fridays for Future climate strike in Potsdam, Germany on 15 February 2019.[29]

On 21 February 2019, the European Union chief executive, Jean-Claude Juncker, stated intent to spend hundreds of billions of euros on climate change mitigation, amounting to a fourth of the EU budget. He announced this in a speech next to Greta Thunberg, and media credited the school strike movement with this announcement.[30]

On 5 March 2019, 700 German researchers signed a petition in support of the school strikes in that country.[31] This was followed by 1200 researchers in Finland signing a letter, on 11 March 2019, supporting the strikes.[32]

On 15 March 2019 school strikes urging adults to take responsibility and stop the climate change were taking place in over 2000 cities worldwide, on all continents.[33][citation needed]

Global Climate Strike for Future

Speech at the end of a demonstration in Dijon (Côte-d'Or, Burgundy, France), related to the global strike of students against climate change, 15 March 2019. The speech is delivered by a local spokeswoman of the high school students, from the stairs of the Jardin Darcy.

On 1 March 2019, 150 students from the global coordination group of the youth-led climate strike (of 15 March), including Greta Thunberg, issued an open letter in The Guardian, saying:[34]

We, the young, are deeply concerned about our future. […] We are the voiceless future of humanity. We will no longer accept this injustice. […] We finally need to treat the climate crisis as a crisis. It is the biggest threat in human history and we will not accept the world's decision-makers' inaction that threatens our entire civilisation. […] Climate change is already happening. People did die, are dying and will die because of it, but we can and will stop this madness. […] United we will rise until we see climate justice. We demand the world's decision-makers take responsibility and solve this crisis. You have failed us in the past. If you continue failing us in the future, we, the young people, will make change happen by ourselves. The youth of this world has started to move and we will not rest again.

The day of the Global Climate Strike for the Future was to be the most widespread of strikes, with tens of thousands of children in at least 100 countries and over 35 US states walking out of school, supported by some of the world's biggest environmental groups.[35][36] Leading up to the strike, the website FridaysForFuture.org lists 1659 events planned in 106 countries.[37][38][timeframe?]

In Scotland, city councils of Glasgow, Edinburgh, Highland and Fife gave permission for children to attend the strikes.[39] In Finland parental consent letters were sent to schools[40] and in the Finnish city of Turku the school board proclaimed that children had a constitutional right to take part in the strikes.[41]

On the morning of 15 March in a Guardian guest editorial, titled "Think we should be at school? Today’s climate strike is the biggest lesson of all", school climate strikers Greta Thunberg, Anna Taylor, Luisa Neubauer, Kyra Gantois, Anuna De Wever, Adélaïde Charlier, Holly Gillibrand and Alexandria Villasenor, reiterated their reasons for striking.[42]

An estimated number of more than a million people in ca. 125 countries demonstrated at about 2000 events worldwide.[33] According to organizers, events took place in about 125 countries.[33] In Germany, more than 300000 pupils demonstrated in some 230 cities with more than 25000 in Berlin alone.[43][44] In Italy more than 200000 students demonstrated, 100000 only in Milan according to the organizers. In Montreal more than 150 000 attended, Stockholm 15000 to 20000, Melbourne 30000, Brussels 30000, Munich 8000, Paris, London, Washington, Reykjavík, Oslo, Helsinki, Copenhagen, Tokyo.[33]

Support from scientists

German scientists, including Volker Quaschning, Eckart von Hirschhausen, Mario Barth, Henning Krause [de], Martin Visbeck [de] and Gregor Hagedorn, at the 15 March 2019 climate demo at Invalidenpark [de], Berlin-Mitte, in front of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy

In Germany a group of more than 23000 scientists founded Scientists for Future (S4F) in support of the factual correctness of the claims formulated by the movement.[45][46][47][48]

Comments by school and government officials

The strikes have also been criticised as truancy. Prime Minister Theresa May of the United Kingdom criticised the strikes as wasting lesson and teaching time.[49] Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison called for "more learning and less activism" following the strikes.[50] Australia's Education Minister Dan Tehan suggested that if school students feel strongly about a cause, then they should protest in their own time in the evenings or on weekends.[51]

In New-Zealand, there was a mixed response from politicians, community leaders, and schools. Students were threatened to be marked as truant by some principals for attending the strike without their parents' or schools' permission.[52] Judith Collins, and several other Members of Parliament were dismissive of the impact of the strike,[53] while Climate Change Minister James Shaw expressed support noting that little attention would be paid to marchers protesting on the weekend.[54][55]
