One Friday last August a Swedish schoolgirl decided not to attend her classes. Clutching her handwritten sign “School strike for climate,” she instead stood outside Sweden������Ƶapp Parliament, a one-child protest against the damage humankind has wrought on the environment.

Out of the mouths of babes has poured a passionate and brutally blunt condemnation of mankind������Ƶapp contamination of God������Ƶapp creation.

Somehow in the tsunami of humanity flooding Montreal������Ƶapp downtown streets for last Friday������Ƶapp “climate march,” I spotted an elegantly dressed woman wearing a small white lapel button protesting Quebec������Ƶapp Bill 21.

Tens of thousands of people in Toronto joined more than 80 other youth-led marches across Canada on Sept. 27 to demand immediate action to address global climate change.
