Turnhout 800 people Thursday morning in the centre of Turnhout argued for the climate. In addition to a delegation of ‘grandparents ‘ for the climate’ were especially spijbelende students of the party. “For a lot of Turnhoutse young people, Brussels is too far, therefore, argue we are here”, says co-founder Eliana Erebara.

‘Rather brossen than no forests’ or ‘Not ready to be a fish again’. The are two of the many slogans used by school students Thursday morning with they came during the klimaatbetoging in Turnhout.

The past few weeks went already a few schools through the streets for a klimaatmars. But the demonstration of Thursday morning was the first real klimaatbetoging, for which the students had truancy.
