Isra Hirsi just turned 16 years old.
To celebrate, she came home from school and spent three hours on conference calls.
Isra, a student at South High School in Minneapolis, is one of thousands of students around the world planning a massive Youth Climate Strike for March 15.
With a few weeks to go, there are already strikes planned for 47 countries and almost all 50 states.
Isra is one of three organizers bringing the movement — inspired by Swedish activist Greta Thunberg’s weekly climate strikes— to the United States.
I caught up with Isra to talk about her work as a student organizer and why she’s done waiting for adults to save her generation from the climate crisis.

Good news! I just read a terrific book that has proof positive that the world will not end because of climate change. It’s author has thus far been 100% accurate in his predictions and I heartily recommend it to everyone. It’s called “The Apocalypse”.
