School children from Wales joined thousands of protesters across the world walking out of school for the fifth time today demanding action on climate change.
Walking from Cardiff City Hall to the Senedd, the protesters were chanting for climate justice and democracy.
Oscar Griffin led the group of around 100 primary and secondary age school children, pulling along a make shift boat with a sign that read: "March now, swim later."
"I'm terrified, I think everyone my age who has noticed this is going on is terrified because the people who are meant to be in charge are just not doing anything," said Oscar.
The 16-year-old has attended all five school strikes for climate that have taken place in Wales since February.
The last strike saw hundreds of children from across Wales turn out for the strike, with protests being held in Aberystwyth and Swansea.
He criticised the Welsh Government, calling their declaration of a climate emergency last month a "lip service."
The Whitchurch High student said: "I want them to treat it like a real emergency, I want them to take it as seriously as if we were at war, because we are."
Today was the first time that 18-year-olds Millie Yule and Rianna Man attended the Welsh school strike.
They haven't been able to attend before because they were worried it would interrupt their education.
"Schools think that young people don't care about our education, but we do, I know I need an education to get into the establishments that need changing," said Millie.
Millie is hoping to go to university in September to study history.
She plans to spend her summer as an activist, attending protests and raising awareness of climate emergency in order to preserve human history for future generations.
"Its a matter of timing, we are right on the cusp of being able to act as adults in systems where younger people have less of an impact in.
"But people are starting to listen to us," said Rianna.
