Greta Thunberg Nominated for Nobel Peace Prize
The motion
That the Parliament congratulates Greta Thunberg on her nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize; commends Greta on founding the Youth Strike for Climate movement, which led climate strikes in over 100 countries on 15 March 2019; recognises the contribution of all young people in the quest for intergenerational climate justice in Scotland and around the world; considers that, without ambitious action from world leaders and individuals, climate change will be the cause of wars, conflict and people seeking refuge, and encourages young people in Scotland to keep fighting for their right to a sustainable future.
