RTRFM 92.1 disrupted its usual broadcast last Friday, September 20, to take part in the [Global Climate Strike.](https://www.facebook.com/GlobalClimateStrike/?__tn__=K-R&eid=ARBsEF7fWhlIF6krJ1-2-BOx3DHX6T_O7vX2oUBGi92YXkUpq1iDOSl2q8jD5nygkKCV8qUYtAeth_jc&fref=mentions&__xts__%5B0%5D=68.ARD1wOCEzN8jbLg27NcXKtbsVX8_DGI_wtL_vKk4-AuPdLP9KFdaNBr8nL-0G_KHXxiRUPfH3AVHqXrZz6ZYWSaIHxkNc1nIn_VQfdsKch_P31Q-QMLhVczVPgKxN3oAmj-cc7PkQd6PiBL2NALixCHGHn4ePpDlfEtFkcAnS-yqGZHaK-1t9O7TqHHV0JHRHr8dSE0o_lPjYuWeAUiIxXi0qWAplqZChwNlIeUEupu4NrC7m6ErxasJwRSfWPUWtSK5FGm7YQoNa0hGYu8PRWf9y21nkBCHfk9WSn8Kc8ELECRugjvlNFtZzptNoKuIuKa1nmZLLiOY3ZNScw) The Global Climate Strike was formed in light of inaction on the parts of local and international politicians to announce a state of climate emergency, and to get the conversation moving on this incredible issue. The program played a selection of sound bites from an interview between youth climate activist Greta Thunberg and author and activist Naomi Klein, hosted by [The Intercept](https://theintercept.com/2019/09/06/greta-thunberg-naomi-klein-climate-change-livestream/) ahead of the Global Climate Strike. We also spoke with anti-nuclear activist [Dr Helen Caldicott](https://rtrfm.com.au/story/anti-nuclear-activism/), bee keeper and Teenovator [Luke De Laeter](https://rtrfm.com.au/story/climate-change-and-food-waste/) and Psychology For A Safe Climate founder and president [Carol Ride](https://rtrfm.com.au/story/psychology-for-a-safe-climate/). Plus vox pops from those attending the rally.
