Young people must be prepared to continue striking to call for action on climate change for a long time and not back down, Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg told a climate strike rally in Denver on Friday.
Thunberg said she and fellow youth activists won't beg those in power to act because she expects leaders to keep ignoring them.
"We will instead tell them, if they won't do it, we will," the 16-year-old said to loud cheers.
"The world is waking up and we are the change. The change is coming whether you like it or not."
