"Protests erupted across the globe on Friday led by youth activists demanding governments take action to thwart the inevitable effects of climate change.
From Israel to South Africa to the U.S., thousands of student protesters rallied at school campuses and their civic centers asking for federal and international action to address global warming — the effects of which could greatly impact younger generations.
In Washington, D.C., protesters from the Youth Strike for Climate rallied outside the Capitol holding signs with slogans such as, “You can’t comb over climate change.”
In Cape Town, students in uniforms held signs, one which read, “Denial is not a policy.”"
