It started in front of the Swedish Parliament, on the 20th of August – a regular school day. Greta sat with her painted sign and some homemade flyers. This was the first school strike ever. From then on, Fridays wouldn’t be regular school days any longer. The rest of us, and many more alongside us, picked it up in Australia, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, New Zealand, Uganda. Today the climate strike will take place all around the world. This movement had to happen, we didn’t have a choice.
