Organisers of a youth climate change rally set for later this month say they have plans to reignite their movement this year.
The group School Strike 4 Climate NZ, the organisers of a series of marches across New Zealand in 2019, are holding what they call
an intergenerational protest outside parliament on January 26.
They have called the new campaign "100 Days 4 Action", and want the new government to meet a range of "real transformative" demands in their first 100 days in power.
Members have been called on to contribute online to crowdsourcing for ideas to create the list of demands they plan to present to Parliament, but they expect it will include work toward phasing out the use of fossil fuels, decreasing agriculture emissions and investment in climate education.
