Climate Strike Antwerp

The climate marches have been popular all over the world. The UN Climate Change Conference in Glasgow is right behind the corner and politicians are going without a clear solution in mind. On the 22nd of October, youngsters decided to host a protest in Gent, Antwerp and Brussels. There wasn’t a huge crowd in Antwerp but the few hundred people that were there had a voice and will be heard. ‘If politicians don’t take their responsibility, then we have to’, said organizer Sofie Aerts on their Facebook page. I followed the crowd in Antwerp to capture their frustration.
