Been pretty good at keeping my emotions in check around today’s #ClimateStrike, but my 8-year-old mate Archie—the first kid I’ve properly known and loved since he was born—has been in news bulletins across NSW and I’m so proud of him for doing this, and ashamed that he had to. 💚 pic.twitter.com/H0MVrSa5gJ
