Global Climate Strike In Kiev

Youth hold posters during the 'Global climate strike' climate change action protest in Kiev, Ukraine, on 20 September, 2019. Thousands activists of the Ukrainian environmental organizations marched along the central streets of the capital to the Presidential Office, demanded government abandon fossil fuels and transition to renewable energy sources, develop public electric transport and bicycle infrastructure, and prohibit using and import of plastic bags and disposable plastic tableware. The protest is timed to coincide with a special UN climate summit to be held September 23 in New York. Ukrainain youth held the climate strike, inspired by Swedish schoolgirl and founder of Fridays For Future Greta Thunberg, who began protesting before the Swedish Parliament a year ago, in order that it immediately recognizes climate change as a priority in its work.
