Tell us if you are taking part in Friday's school climate strikes

Young people calling for immediate action on the climate emergency are planning to join mass school strikes inspired by Greta Thunberg on Friday.

Strikes are planned in more than 1,400 cities in more than 110 countries with hundreds of thousands of children and young people walking out of lessons. Organisers say the number of young people taking part is set to top the 1.4 million people who participated in March.

The Extinction Rebellion movement expressed support by saying that despite these numbers “Government[s are] still failing to act now on the climate and ecological emergency”.
