Remember when we were joining climate marches together, like the huge gatherings around the world in 2019? It already feels like years rather than months since we were allowed to take to the streets in big groups to protest and speak truth to power.<\/p>\n\n

Because of the global pandemic, we\u2019re maintaining physical distancing where we can. But from online actions to trending hashtags, from holographic marches, to physical protests maintaining a two metre distance<\/a>, activists all around the world are continuing to stand up for the future they want to see, in increasingly creative and innovative ways. We\u2019ve compiled a list of some of our favourites. We hope they inspire you as much as they\u2019ve inspired us. <\/p>\n\n

Let’s turn the crisis into an opportunity. This is our chance for a change. We are undivided, even if we can\u2019t be together.<\/p>\n\n

<\/p>\n\n

Across the globe, Fridays For Future activists have continued to demand action on climate under the hashtag #DigitalStrike<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

We have seen the ability of digital actions to start conversations, raise awareness and grow, and that gives us hope. So let\u2019s keep on raising our voices online until they can\u2019t ignore us and the defenders!! #defendthedefenders<\/a> #digitalstrike<\/a> #ClimateStrikeOnline<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/PYmqchyA84<\/a><\/p>— Fridays For Future Digital is closed (@fff_digital) April 29, 2020<\/a><\/blockquote>
