Students from all across the country are demanding change. Critics have labeled their ideas as radical, unrealistic and costly, but their voices must be heard.
On Feb. 22, approximately 40 students and faculty members rallied on campus for a climate justice strike. They voiced their support for the Green New Deal in Congress and called out the University of Louisville for its lack of funding toward the Climate Action Plan.
Their rally was a part of an international #FridaysForFuture movement. This movement began when 16-year-old Greta Thunberg protested for climate justice outside the Swedish parliament.
