This week on The Children's Hour meet kids who are standing up to demand adults take action on the issues that directly impact their lives. Well be joined by Our Children's Trust attorney Nate Bellinger, and the crew talks with Mica Kantor, a 12 year old plaintiff in a case against the Montana government over the state's inaction on climate change. Kids Crew members Julia and Kaia will teach us about Greta Thunberg and her Fridays For Future campaign. Then the kids in the Extinction Diaries are sounding the alarm about the collapse of insect populations worldwide. This show is mixed with excellent music!
