This week millions of young people left school and adults left work to participate in a Climate Strike to protest climate change. But one video showed a young woman screaming and having a tantrum about the climate and the adults that she believes are dooming her.
The video was a frightening example of the hysteria that could be caused by people like New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez convincing them their doom is imminent.
Students had similar displays around the world on Friday as the Climate Strike, begun by a teenager, attracted millions, Reuters reported.
Millions of young people flooded the streets of cities around the world on Friday to demand political leaders take urgent steps to stop climate change, uniting in a worldwide protest inspired by 16-year-old Swedish activist Greta Thunberg.
Alarmed by images of the Greenland ice sheets melting and the Amazon rain forests burning, students and workers abandoned schools, shops and offices in nearly every corner of the globe, aiming to stop what they see as a looming environmental catastrophe.
The protests started in the Pacific islands, where rising sea levels threaten a way of life, and followed the rising sun across Australia, Japan, Southeast Asia and on to Europe, Africa, the Middle East and the Americas. The coordinated student “strike” culminated in New York’s Wall Street, where some investors have embraced the fossil fuel industry.
