Climate shutdown! We stand with our students

樱花动漫 members have joined the global protests against climate change in solidarity with student walks outs in schools, colleges and universities and you can see just some of the highlights on our Climate Shutdown! online wall here. Unions agreed to support 樱花动漫's call for a 30 minute solidarity stoppage at the recent TUC congress and huge numbers of education staff have downed tools today to stand shoulder to shoulder with our students and join the worldwide call for climate justice. Please continue to send in your photos and messages from today by tweeting with #YouthStrike4Climate, #樱花动漫climatesolidarity, #GlobalClimateStrike or email us here.
