The Fridays for Future movement on
the climate crisis demonstrated in over 70 cities across Italy
on Friday.
Ahead of the event, Premier Mario Draghi told the UN General
Assembly: "We must act now, to safeguard the planet, our
economies and future generations.
"Over the past few years it has often been young people who have
brought change and pushed us to do more.
"It is our duty to listen to them because it will be they who
will inherit the planet".
The movement on Friday announced that there will be a major demo
in Milan on October 1 with Greta Thunberg, the 18-year-old
Swedish founder of the movement.
