Global climate strikes


Thousands of young people across the globe went protesting last Friday in a call for reparations for the countries worst affected by the climate breakdown. Across Asia, Africa and Europe people walked out of their jobs, universities and schools to protest against the climate change. Strikes were planed in about 450 places worldwide. In these recant months we have seen the tragedies that happened, floods in parts of Pakistan, wildfires in North Africa, Europe and North Africa and heatwaves in Britain and India. The biggest strike took place in Berlin with approximately 20000 people calling on their government to set up a found for the climate crisis. The only rich country that has done anything about this crisis is Denmark, who is funding for the problem. The strikes for global climate started in 2018 inspired by Greta Thunberg’s solitary protests outside the Swedish parliament.

Iran protest

    Protests in Iran have been happening for two weeks now. Woman across their country go out to the streets to protest against the obligation to wear hijab. The government ruthlessly tries to silence the protests, they use brutal force against the protesting women. Dozens of them have been killed and arrested.  The protests were sparked by the death  of Mahsa Amini, a 22 year old Kurdish woman, after her arrest by the police.  While women fight for their rights, most men just sit and watch. Women do not know whether will they come back home from the protest alive or not.

The women are ready to fight against their government, with the knowledge they can die doing it.
