The climate activist Greta Thunberg praised before their appearance in Hamburg, the commitment of German pupils. “What happened in Germany, makes me incredibly hopeful. And the German school strikers have already written history,“ said the 16-year-old Swede. “Therefore, it is a great honour for me to stand at your side.” It is the first Time that you come for a Demonstration for the climate to Germany.
about half a year Ago Thunberg has begun all alone in front of the Reichstag in Stockholm in order to go on strike for stronger climate protection measures in your country. By appearances at the UN climate change conference in the Polish city of Katowice (Katowice) and at the world economic forum in Davos, it has become world famous.
students all over the world demonstrate, in the meantime, according to their model, under the Motto #Friday forfuture for more climate protection, including every Friday thousands in Germany. Since you’ve currently on holiday, could you travel through Europe, in Brussels, Paris, Antwerp, and Hamburg to the school strikes, to participate, said Thunberg.
Germany looks at you as one of the most important countries in the fight against climate change. “Yes, Germany is a major player. What Germany is doing has a huge influence on the entire world. That’s why I think you should look at this as a great opportunity,“ she said.

Many people, including many young, do not know what needs to be done in the fight for the climate. “A lot of people know that something is going wrong with the climate – but very few in the whole of the consequences of the climate crisis a reality.” (dpa)
