Young people march through Glasgow in landmark climate protest

The event is organised by Fridays for Future Scotland, a group founded by young people inspired by the activism of Greta Thunberg.

The Swedish teenager was seen marching in the crowd, having urged striking council workers to join her.

  • so many people, so many voices…wonder if it will make a difference? :thinking:

My first thought was … how are they paying their way through life. My wife is an English born Swede and I’d better not type her response :astonished::wink:

I think the poster in the middle says “Stop Selling Oil For Profit”!

Good luck with that!

When he is not getting arrested for indecency in London public toilets Alan Jones spouts a load of drivel for Murdoch’s publications, he is as well informed as a carrot pandering to the Trumpian right wing.

Really? That must be a first.

I say good luck to the protesters eventually they will win ,as it’s their future their world not ours …
When you look at the mess our generation has made of the very air we breathe these protests aren’t even on the scale when it comes to measuring pollution.
It least these protesters are out there doing something trying to make a difference not sitting behind their PC screens name calling.

I agree, Caveman…but at the end of the day…if you don’t have time to walk your kids to school, or sit and read to them, perhaps its time to re-evaluate your life? Costa & Starbucks are doing a roaring trade, and not a flask in sight. Just sayin’ :woman_shrugging:

This needs to be highlighted again and again.

I’m fed up with all of the negative outlooks.

Surely, it would help a lot if we could focus on money being spent, research being done, changes being made, etc to use technology to get the problem fixes in place.?

Let’s hear more about devices for cleaning the atmosphere, the oceans, etc.

Research will be ongoing, somewhere, let’s hear about it!

Yet he amassed a huge following… the popularity of his rhetoric opinions made him one of the highest paid for his service.

I didn’t agree with his anti-lockdown opinions, or Covid not being a pandemic, Like Piers Morgan, Katie Hopkins I often don’t agree with them either….But when people say something I agree with, regardless their Political standing or whatever it is I don’t like about them…. I will say I agree strong textstrong text
