Summary: Thousands of people blocked the busiest roads and bridges of central London on Monday, to raise alarm regarding “a mounting climate crisis”. The protests are part of an organization called, “British Climate Organization Extinction Rebellion”. One protest is currently occurring at the Waterloo Bridge, and it contains a group of demonstrators with plants, trees, and solar panels in tow. There are many rallies planned for the near future, in 80 different cities, and 33 different countries. They are demanding for the government to take action regarding the climate and ecological emergency.
Analysis: This article was written on Monday 15, 2019 and last updated at 12:54 pm. This means that the article is very recent and the information is up to date. This article was probably written to keep us aware of the upcoming rallies and why they are happening. This article was also written towards all the environment-enthusiasts, keeping us alert as to what we are doing to protect our economy and climate. This can be related to all the climate and economy changes that were made in the late 1900s and early 2000s. In my opinion, it is great that we are finally taking action in making our voices heard when it comes to fixing our environment!

I find it great that people are using their voice to impact decisions and spread the word out.
