"There has been a number of real heroes on school strike, for instance in Scotland and Ireland, for some time now. Such as Holly Gillibrand and the ones in Cork with the epic sign saying ‘the emperor is naked’."
Last month secondary school children from across Dublin gathered outside the Dail to call on the government to tackle climate change. Students in Cork have also taken part in the movement every Friday at Cork City Hall. Teenage Thunberg has captured the imagination of many and according to Green News, Irish students plan on continuing their Friday protests until climate change is addressed by the government.School strike week 27.
