"Greta-effect across the world on Friday"

"For the second time to gather the swedes across the country on Friday in a klimatstrejk. International planned manifestations in almost a hundred countries, inspired by environmental activist, Greta Thunberg."

"We hope that nothing earlier in the story will measure up to the size of the climate movement," said Isabelle Axelsson, klimatstrejkare in Stockholm."

"In Sweden is being prepared manifestations in 114 cities. Klimatstrejken is the second greater then the collection on 30 november last year, ahead of the UN climate change conference, and its involvement has grown – especially internationally – according to the activists."

"– It is much more global this time. There are very many more countries than Sweden must attend and demonstrate, and show their displeasure, " said Isabelle Axelsson."

"so Far is klimatmanifestationer registered in 1 325 cities in a total of 98 countries."

"the Demonstrations are inspired by environmental activist, Greta Thunberg and her high-profile skolstrejk for the climate. The Swedish 16-year-old has since the summer sittstrejkat for the climate outside the parliament house in Stockholm every Friday. And the strike has been spread far beyond the country's borders. Thousands of children and young people have gone on strike in Australia, Germany and the Uk."

"Friday's manifestation is designed to get the politicians to speed up efforts to achieve the internationally agreed climate targets."

"– There are lots of species die out, both plants and animals, and there are people who die every day because of climate change and the climate crisis. It is not acceptable, " said Isabelle Axelsson."

"Many of those expected to attend are school pupils, but the schools agree, generally do not leave."

"– and most of them have not been granted a leave from the rector and school board, " says Isabelle Axelsson, who is a pupil in Stockholm."

"– of course, It is a bit sad but this is still a strike, and it would be a strike if got leave to do it? It is clear that we want to have support from the schools and other adults, but of course we can't ask for it, this is still a revolt against the current system, " she says."

"HH: Are you not worried to miss important teaching?"

"– Well, there are quite many who feel anxious about school. But we try to encourage each other and support each other. Most of us who are on strike are also prepared to take the consequences of this movement."

"Greta Thunberg, born in 2003, has since the summer skolstrejkat outside the parliament house in Stockholm every Friday, with the promise to not stop until american policy is in line with the paris agreement of 2015."

"Greta Thunberg's actions have inspired lots of school - and high school students in other countries to also manifest for climate. At the same time, she has been invited to speak at, for example, the UN climate change conference in Poland in autumn, the World economic forum in Davos in January and, most recently, at a seminar on the future of Europe in Brussels."

"Greta Thunberg's children to actor Svante Thunberg and singer Malena Ernman. Grandfather Olof Thunberg is also well-known to many as the narration in the films and fairy tales on the bear Bamse."
