BRISTOL, England – On Friday, climate activist Greta Thunberg denounced the media and politicians for ignoring the climate cataclysm as they face the world on fire with inaction.
Several thousands of people attended the Bristol rally to see Greta Thunberg who reprimanded governments worldwide over climate change.
17-year-old Greta Thunberg captured the imagination of youngsters worldwide with demands with world leaders to take action urgently.
“I will not be silenced while the world is on fire – will you? This emergency is being completely ignored by the politicians, the media and those in power. Basically nothing is being done … despite all the beautiful words.”
– Greta Thunberg
People held placards reading “Change the politics not the climate”, “The ocean is rising so are we!” and “At this point education is pointless.”
Thunberg led the march through central Bristol after her speech and a turnout of over 20,000 people was seen, estimated by local police.
