So many claiming it's adults pulling strings and getting their kids into politics or activism. Just one point to make to that: For any kid protesting, or caring about climate, it's been an issue that's been constantly in the background their whole damn life. Longer than they've been able to read. Things we've had longer than 18 years: Recycling bins; climate and associated environmental stories such as species loss on news, documentaries, in schools; politicians talking about, dismissing and greenwashing climate; climate related taxes; alternative lightbulbs, insulation and low-energy promotions from utility companies. [other countries may vary on details, and age of majority] How can they possibly not be forming strong opinions, and wanting to do something? Remember CND and the peace movements? That was part of the kid's and youth culture of the sixties - for that generation that was impossible to miss with the constant Cold War backdrop. This generation gets added trolling and conspiracy claims of it being adults pulling strings.
