Alexandria Villaseñor

“Scientific Consensus on Climate Change”

“School strike for climate”

“Eighty years from now, our grandchildren can yell, 'Hey Zoomers."”

“My name is Alexandria Villaseñor. I’m 14 years old. I’m from New York. And I am here because 30 years ago the world signed a contract between generations that the present world would leave a world worth inheriting to the future. And today I want to tell the world, you are defaulting on that contract, and we’re here to collect.”

“I see more of the structures that society has put in place. And that’s why my generation has been so impactful with the climate movement. We’re organizing outside of the structures that adults work in. Since getting involved, I just see how the system is broken, and it’s one of the things that needs to change.”
