A Quebec high school French exam question that asked students about adapting to climate change has drawn a torrent of online criticism, as teens used memes and videos to denounce what they see as government inaction on climate issues.

The question on last week's ministry exam for Grade 11 students asked: "Can we adapt to climate change?"

Claude said the members of his generation are committed to fighting environmental destruction, not adapting to it. He said many students find it ironic that the Quebec government is testing them on climate change at all. "On the other hand, I'm proud that the youth are so sensitized and mobilized on this issue," he wrote.

Ralston said some students put a green dot on their exam to signify climate change, and others have since started wearing the symbol as a call for action.
