Young Activists - Novato High Earth Club
A dozen young climate activists gathered at the Novato High School to prepare posters, songs and speeches for their Youth Climate Strike in Santa Rosa the next day, where they planned to demand action on climate change.
This North Bay strike was organized by young activists Lucy London and Kelley Tillman, along with their peers at the Novato High Earth Club. The next day, they gave speeches, sang together, made posters, marched on City Hall and created a beautiful mosaic to honor mother earth.
Over a million students around the world skipped school this Friday to protest government inaction on climate change, with thousands of rallies in 125 countries, making it the largest youth climate action in history.
Their peaceful demonstration was very moving: these young people are sweet, smart, articulate, dedicated and they share an amazing creative energy and love for the earth. I want to be like them when I grow up!
Our Green Change team supported their youth movement by providing a sound system, a large earth globe, and recording videos and photos of their uprising. Thanks to our crew members Sarah Acker and Marilyn Price for their invaluable support of this important cause. :)
In coming weeks, I will create a special video story featuring Lucy, Kelley and their friends for Climate Heroes, our new series on the new leaders of the green revolution.
Even though this was a youth-led event, they welcomed the help of adult allies like us. It was a pleasure to join forces with these young leaders to fight for climate action together, across generations!
