Due to limited capacity, Oxford Youth Strike 4 Climate will no longer be holding any strikes or similar events in the foreseeable future.
Many of our members have joined XR Youth Oxford, and will be continuing with climate action through this group.

We understand that this news may be disappointing to some, and indeed, we are very sad to be making this decision.

At OYS, we will continue to monitor our social media accounts. This is so that we can continue to support other local groups to be there for anyone who would like to talk to us.

We would like to say a huge thank you to any individuals and groups who have attended our strikes, helped with events, shared us on social media, or helped in any of the other numerous ways people have been there for us. Your support has meant the world to us and is the reason we have been able to accomplish so much. We encourage everyone to be hopeful and stay involved in climate activism.

The catastrophic climate scenario that we are living in is the result of centuries of exploitation and oppression through colonialism, extractivism and capitalism, an essentially flawed socio-economic model which urgently needs to be replaced.

A system where rich nations are responsible for 92% of global emissions, and the richest 1% of the world population are responsible for double the pollution produced by the poorest 50%.

Guided by historical struggles and lived experiences, led by the most affected people and areas (MAPA), we are demanding climate reparations.

Climate struggle is class struggle, for years, the ruling class, primarily through corporations and governments from the Global North dominated by affluent, white, heterosexual cis-males, have exercised their power, gained through colonialism, capitalism, patriarchy, white supremacy and exploitation, to destroy the earth and its occupants with no remorse.
They deliberately sacrifice the Global South’s ecosystems and peoples for the sake of their so-called “development” and everlasting “economic growth”. Meanwhile, the working class is used as tools to build the very system that is destroying them.

Colonizers and capitalists are at the core of every system of oppression that has caused the climate crisis, and decolonization, using the tool of climate reparations, is the best kind of climate action.

The richest capitalist 1%, must be held responsible for their actions and willful ignorance. Their profit is our death. Their profit is our suffering.

Together with different sectors of society across the world, led by the most marginalized, let’s bring back the power to the people whose power has been stolen. Together, let’s build a system and home where we prioritize

Only 3 weeks to the next Global youth strike. Hope to see many people in Oxford at 11am in Bonn Square or striking digitally if you can't make it in person.

Hello, everyone. We would like to introduce you to another charity, in case you don’t already know them: our friends Asylum Welcome.

With humanitarian crises happening around the world and particularly in places such as Afghanistan and Ukraine, we think it’s important to welcome refugees to our country and help them to overcome challenges they face and live in peace.

Asylum Welcome offer information, advice and practical support to asylum seekers, refugees and vulnerable migrants living in Oxfordshire. We’re currently working on a project with them, telling the stories of people who have come to this country seeking asylum.

If you can, please give to them: www.asylum-welcome.org/donate

We’re also proud to host Damascus Rose Kitchen in our café. DRK are a social enterprise, supporting Arabic-speaking refugee women in the city. Every time you eat here, you’re supporting their work.

Thank you.

All the best, the OFS team.
