Agnese Casadei, spokesperson for Fridays for future Italy, explained the meaning of the mobilization: "The disaster that occurred in the Marche a few days ago reminds us of the consequences of ignoring the climate crisis. The possibility of avoiding a catastrophic increase in temperatures depends on the next 5 years, and we risk that it will be wasted by a Parliament that does not see the climate issue as a priority. We cannot allow this to happen: politics must know that ignoring this problem is not an option if it wants to win the consent of the citizens . He must also know that not acting today means being criminal accomplices in the greatest crisis in human history ".
