And while Prime Minister Scott Morrison says he wants “less activism in schools”, one Sydney school principal sees things differently.about his Year 11 students going on strike, in which he cleverly dismantles all the common arguments made against young people rallying for action on climate change.
Mr Parker first addresses the argument that allowing students to march for climate change will lead them to taking up other causes, like immigration and abortion, which could see them just constantly skipping school. On the point about “slacktivism” — that kids don’t care about the environment and just want to skip class — he says the students argued this was a “chicken and egg argument” — “that going to a march is what will make some kids care passionately and then do more about it”.
“But just at the time when we need to ramp up climate solutions, we have elected a government that wants to open the floodgates to new coal, oil and gas projects that put all of us at risk.” But Catholic and Anglican Church-run schools say their students should remain in class, as do NSW public schools.
Just wonder for school students there?
Wow, look at all the brain washed people. Just goes to show that people are more gullible than you think. Good job media.
I'm watching a group of brainwashed, gullible, naïve & susceptible children following the pied piper into oblivion.
Perhaps Michael Parker can dismantle this equation then: If (AGW = (0.03 x 0.0004 x atmosphere)) then {LOL}
