"You are failing us. But the young people are starting to
SET YOUR PLAN understand your betrayal. The eyes of all future generations
are upon you. And if you choose to fail us, I say: We will never

INTO ACTION forgive you. We will not let you get away with this. Right here,
right now is where we draw the line. The world is waking up.

TODAY!
And change is coming, whether you like it or not.” - Greta
Thunberg
