Karamea kids strike for climate
Karamea Area School students used their strike time on Friday to plant flax and cabbage trees to help restore wetland areas.
Organiser Jimmy Daamen, a year 11 student, says they decided to strike because they wanted the "governments of the world to take more action to provide a safe climate future for our generation and future generations to come".
