Thousands joined Thunberg, now a nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize, on Friday, gathering at some 1,600 strike locations in more than 100 countries around the world — Sweden, Germany, the U.K., France, Belgium, Austria, Italy, Finland, Uganda, South Africa, New Zealand, Australia, Korea, Japan, India — for the School Strike 4 Climate.

noun

noun: strike; plural noun: strikes

1. a refusal to work organized by a body of employees as a form of protest, typically in an attempt to gain a concession or concessions from their employer.

"dockers voted for an all-out strike"

synonyms: industrial action, walkout

"staff held a 48-hour strike"

When a group is On Strike, they are NOT doing something that is beneficial to other people. When airline pilots, (for example) strike, they are not piloting airplanes.

Exactly what good or service are these kids depriving anyone of?????
