Tessa Allan, astudent from Hurunui College, explains her motivation to<br />
take part in the recent International School Strike for Climate Day.<br />
Idecided as one of HurunuiCollege’s<br />
head students to join the International<br />
School Strike for Climate Day on<br />
September 27.<br />
Iorganised aproactive day of action at<br />
the college to raise awareness by having<br />
Nicola Toki, the Department of<br />
Conservation endangered species<br />
ambassador, speak to the students about<br />
the need to protect our fragile<br />
ecosystems and what climate change<br />
means for our native species.<br />
Thirtyfive students supported the<br />
Climate Strike by creating banners,<br />
using recycled cardboard and unwanted<br />
paint, then went on to protest in<br />
Hawarden.<br />
It was an extremely successful day,<br />
with passersby waving and tooting,<br />
while others came out of their homes to<br />
take photosand videos.<br />
This was wellsupported by staff<br />
membersand our principal, Stephen<br />
Beck.<br />
Striking locally was more practical<br />
than driving into Christchurch.<br />
We didn’t release any carbon<br />
emissions by travelling and it allowed<br />
more students to express their message<br />
in asmall town.<br />
We hope that this will put pressure on<br />
the government and the Hurunui<br />
District Council to take this issue more<br />
seriously and to declare aclimate<br />
emergency.<br />
We know that our council and the New<br />
Zealand government are taking steps in<br />
the right direction to attack climate<br />
❛We want stricter laws and<br />
policies on theuse, extraction<br />
and explorationoffossil fuels.We<br />
want to investinarenewable<br />
and regenerative economy. We<br />
need everyonetothink about<br />
how their actions will affect our<br />
environment,not only the<br />
economy.❜<br />
change. However, Ibelievethat<br />
committing to, and declaring, aclimate<br />
emergency will force more urgent<br />
action, lead to more ambitious goals,<br />
and create more accountability for<br />
governmental and municipal bodies.<br />
We, the youth, are asking the<br />
government to declare aclimate<br />
emergency.<br />
We want crossparty supportfor the<br />
Zero Carbon Act. We want abetter<br />
public transport system.<br />
We want stricter laws and policies on<br />
the use, extraction and exploration of<br />
fossil fuels. We want to invest in a<br />
renewable and regenerative economy.<br />
We need everyone to think about how<br />
their actions will affect our<br />
environment, not only the economy.<br />
We need change now. Not in ayear’s<br />
time. Not in amonth. Now. This is our<br />
future and we are going to fight for it.<br />
