Thousands of Kiwi school children will walk out of classes on Friday, as part of the School Strike 4 Climate protests.
New Zealanders will join with more than 40 other countries in a global protest for action on climate change.
New Zealand protesters are demanding the Government "do more" to solve the issue of global warming.
In a list of demands published to the strike website, protesters are asking for an effective Zero Carbon Act to be passed, giving New Zealand a long term plan for carbon neutrality.

They also want all exploration and extraction of fossil fuels to stop immediately, and are asking for investments to be made into renewable energy alternatives.
The list of demands also asks for the Governments plans to reach emission targets to be "fast tracked, well planned and transparent."
Protests are planned all throughout New Zealand - so if you're looking to get involved, here's what's going on where:
