School climate strikes: why and how are they organised? What lessons can the environmental movement take from the rapid emergence of young climate activists? Against the backdrop of the failure of COP26 to adequately tackle rising fossil fuel emissions, climate activist and national school strike organiser Noga Levy-Rapoport explains the unique power of young people to affect change and transform our planet in the face of crisis and impending ecological disaster, and what we must urgently rethink about education, enfranchisement, and youth empowerment in our society.
