Climate Protests

12/17/2019

Begun by Greta Thunberg when she was just 15, #FridaysForFuture has become a student led movement to demand action in the face of the climate emergency. Children from Greystones CNS have participated in all the local strikes to date.
When do we participate?
 A few Fridays throughout the year.

Fun factors for the children:
  • Child-led movement to draw attention to the effects of climate change
  • ​Engage with the issues of climate change in a proactive manner while making some noise
  • An opportunity to express themselves creatively by making posters etc
How can you help?
We’d love to organise some poster making workshops before the next strike. If you’re a creative person with energy to put into helping the kids express themselves we need you!

We’d like to create a more structured way to participate for the younger kids by having pledge boards and opportunities to have their voices heard. For this we need volunteers to help organise in the weeks leading up to the strikes and on the day in Burnaby Park.
