"Fridays for the Future" is an international social movement of schoolchildren and students, whose members demand from politicians "quick and decisive action" to combat global warming. That began in August 2018, after 15-year-old Greta Thunberg and other young activists sat in front of the Swedish parliament every schoolday for three weeks, to protest against the lack of action on the climate crisis. She posted what she was doing on Instagram and Twitter and it soon went viral.

This is how the strike is taking place in the Italian town of Gorizia today.
Speaker said: "The question we have to take as activists is, use reusable bottles, use bikes, or being vegan, will change the world from the "roots"? I don't think so. We have to put our attention on the state and the multinationals who are our worst enemies. They see the environment as a resource to exploit for their own business but not a treasure to take care. We need to change road, change how to make material things, put on first place the environment care, and the population care.For this motivation we are now under the city hall for ask to announcement the climate crisis, now!"
