The September 2019 climate strikes, also known as the Global Week for Future, are a series of international strikes and protests to demand action be taken to address climate change. The strikes’ key dates include 20 September, which is three days before the United Nations Climate Summit, and 27 September, together with the full week from 20 to 27 September proposed for a worldwide general climate strike called the Earth Strike.
The protests are taking place across 4500 locations in 150 countries.
The event is a part of the school strike for climate movement, inspired by Swedish climate activist GRETA THUNBERG.
