WELLINGTON/SYDNEY - Thousands of school students walked out of class across Australia and New Zealand on Friday as part of a global student strike against government inaction on climate change.
Student protests were held in capitals and cities across Australia and New Zealand from Wellington to Melbourne and Sydney, drawing tens of thousands of people, with more planned through Europe, Asia and the United States later on Friday. Elsewhere in Asia Pacific, around 60 students protested at Thailand’s government house in Bangkok, holding cardboard signs to campaign against plastic. Thailand is one of the world’s top marine plastic polluters.
More than 100 students planned to gather in Seoul for a protest. In Singapore, where there are strict laws regulating public assembly, youths planned a virtual campaign on social media. Wellington parent Alex, who marched beside his 11-year-old son, disagreed. “It’s a much better day of education...this is the greatest issue of our time,” he said.
