QandA I hope these students help the planet by giving up their computers, phones, cars, planes, electricity, etc.

Agree we should consider the future of our children without making them public activists - must be reason why we penalise under 25 year drivers (underdeveloped prefrontal brain cortex) and US ban drinking for under 21 years!

QandA Surely the place has turned into a Lunatic asylum now ruled by spoilt kids that can hardy read or write let alone understand they are being used and corrupted for ideological purposes, Are the demanding China stop developing?

'Children should be seen not heard.' Kids learn to participate in community matters, learn to deal with media, learn how politics work, learn about climate change, etc? No! They should remain silent and ignorant in school.

How many of these striking students have the education or intelligence to properly research climate change?

Walking in the foot steps of their grandparents. Just hope they do a better job than we did and not end up like their apathetic parents.

Do all of these kids really believe in CC & turn the lights & TV’s & have 5min showers....brainwashing by the left wing

Lower The Voting Age To Fifteen!

'We are students, hear us roar...'!

QandA Easy to be cynical but all of us should be proud that maybe, just maybe this is the new generation that will be enthused and activated enough to take on the necrotic establishment. Generations have passed since students were interested enough to say NO MORE BULLSHIT! Go kids!

QandA Good on them it is their future that is being destroyed. The money hungry adults certainly aren't looking out for their future on the planet.

QandA Oh yeah my school did it. Nobody cared. Just people who wanted to get out of school

'I believe the children are our future Teach them well and let them lead the way Show them all the beauty they possess inside Give them a sense of pride ...' - Michael Masser & Linda Creed 🥰👏

Fight the power, kids

Go kids 💪🙌🌞. The future is yours and you need to look after it. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. The reason for school is to educate you to live a great present and future. Government needs to do everything in their power to protect and not harm your future. auspol

Get back to school

if only we could find a way to stop the conservatives and the liberal party from being influenced more by short sighted corporate greed than genuine concern for the future of our home, planet earth..

Politicians of all persuasions, to ignore these kids would be perilous!

bollocks

The kids of today want a future , why are we not supporting them more ?

My daughter walked out of school today for this ,she can't get to Martin place but we are with you in spirit.

QandA Just chill, kids. The promise of JOBS JOBS JOBS from the Carmichael coal mine will be a source of comfort to the unfortunate residents of central Queensland at this difficult time.

The fact that they're doing it in school hours shows they are fake.

Good on them 😃👏

They all need to realize this is what the world is up against and they are accidentally helping the enemy

Should be done for wagging

How cute. You’re exploiting children to meet a political agenda. Exploited

QandA Get back to school brats

Cause v symptom. Everyone jumps to the symptom forgetting the cause.

*en masse*

QandA Good on you kids!!!

QandA Who can forget the Montreal Protocol, signed in 1987. There were skeptics then but developed countries were united in phasing out CFCs despite costly consequences to industries. Well done students. You can also vote!! Rather trust the science than amateur commentators.

Yeah this totally seems like something school kids would organise.... 🙄

QandA

QandA I support the students

QandA Does anyone know how I can send these kids pizza? ✊✊✊

When the nation's juveniles are rabid green globalist socialists who presume expertise in complex matters before their brains have developed fully.

Activists are the hard workers. Support them. Remember that for every student that takes part there are an awful lot more who agree with them

Activists are the hard workers. Support them. Remember that for every 3 students that take part there are at least 97 others who agree with them

auspol it just shows how biased, how partisan the Department of Education is in favour of conservative politics! I have never heard them say students will be marked absent & subject to discipline for attending any religious ceremony on school time!

mahootna2 Go kids! Make them take notice of you. You should get a national apology for what we’ve done to the planet.

sammmw8 The governemt is expected to fix things which people themselves are not willing to take responsibility for as part of their own lives Easier to blame someone else than ask can I be using less power, less water, or creating less waste...

sammmw8 They demand the government take action but I ask - what action steps are they personally taking in their daily lives to reduce their impact on the planet? All good to blame others and expect them to change - but what about personal responsibility

Are you serious? Somebody get these kids back to the classroom.

lmao you can't strike from school it's called truancy

Scummo don’t care about the climate. He’s getting whisked away by a rocket ship before the apocalypse, isn’t he?

It's their future, why can't they protest?

Who organised this? And what for?

Remember AlGore and his fictional accounts of reality. Where is Tim Flannery, our dams are full, sea levels are stable. This has been the most expensive hoax in mans history. ClimateChangeHoax

marcuskelson Very proud of these young people

It’s the parents fault they can stop their children from going to such stupid protests!!!

Remember those faces, future ALP and Greens MP’s. Not a word about the inconvenient truth that GlobalWarming had to become ClimateChange because nothing warmed. And AlGore the millionaire who got rich in fear and 1/4 truths.

gowordsmith1 Go for it schoolstrike4climate

Students 1 - Govt 0

If this gov had acted to address climate change, these students wouldn't be striking. Inept this gov is.

Get a job. Hurry as there wont be any when cheap power disappears. Pay taxes. Get a real education, not the leftist shit you get now, lwarn about life, and then we will ignore you.

Go, you good things

Anything for a day off!

I am just wondering what difference can Australia make, if China and the USA keep on going?!

More kids brain washed by stooges in our school system! Climate change Autumn, Winter, Spring, Summer!

LiberalAus on strike too. Media *crickets. auspol

Let's not kid ourselves (pun intended), how many students are really genuine about this? I'm guessing that most will think it's a great idea to get out of school early. They're hardly making a sacrifice! And they will all be truanting. How many truant officers will be there?

It’s your future and your right to fight for it

What Clmate Change ? And how are our Looney Left Teachers going to change one single thing !

'Student's United Will Never Be Defeated!' Solidarity with the Activists of the Future!

Good luck getting through to this clown!!!

I say let’s shut down all power stations and coal mining and let everyone see how Australia goes into the dark Ages. Stupid kids and left wing teachers.

The kids of Australia are not corrupted or lazy like the 'adult'politicians, and are taking the correct steps and need the backing of parents as well as those who care about our enviroment, and the direction we are heading as a country.

Have you contacted China

Liberals are mindful of climate change

What exactly are the kids( translate teachers) actually “protesting”? Can one of these students tell us after their demands are implemented, exactly by how much the Global temperature be reduced? Will their protest ensure it’s cooler in China and Norway?

Photograph & publicly identify the adults at these demos & let's see who's pushing this. Arrest anyone wearing a mask, as a risk to public safety..

Didn’t the science demand that owing to “Global warming” Sydney would be without water reserves by 2009. How did that work out? Hope the kids don’t get too wet today after 135 mm in the past few days. Also hope the desalination plants don’t get flooded.

MarjorieGarante Onya younglings!! Seems you're the only one's concerned for the future!! 😊😊😊

Stupid kids being used by loopy greens!

How do I add this as a refund in my tax return?

good on you kids Tell off thick skull Scott that he is wrong to ignore climate change While we had hurricanes flooding &bushfire in California &Qld ministers were in glee Adani is going to start They r keen for d Chinese coal mine in Galilee too

So that's what they're teaching them at school nowadays! No wonder the teachers are crap and the kids can't read or do maths! To busy teaching our kids crap they don't want!!

Junk science.
