Global Climate March

[1] On 30 November, the first day of the conference, a "Climate strike" was organised by students in over 100 countries; over 50,000 people participated.

Partially inspired by the People's Climate March held in 2014, the Global Climate March did not have a main event, but had extended all over Europe, Oceania, North America, South America, Africa and Asia.

The more crowded rallies took place in Adelaide, Amsterdam, Auckland, Austin, Barcelona, Beirut, Berlin, Bern, Brisbane, Budapest, Canberra, Christchurch, Copenhagen, Curitiba, Dhaka, Dumaguete, Edinburgh, Geneva, Helsinki, Ho Chi Minh City, Hong Kong, Johannesburg, Kampala, Kyiv, Kyoto, Lille, Lisbon, London, Los Angeles, Lugano, Lyon, Madrid, Manila, Marseille, Melbourne, Mexico City, New Delhi, New York City, Oakland, Oslo, Ottawa, Perth, Rennes, Rome, Seoul, Seville, St. Gallen, Stockholm, Sydney, São Paulo, Taipei, Tokyo, Valencia, Vancouver, Washington D.C., Wellington and Zurich.

According to the organizers, the largest marches took place in Melbourne and London, where Radiohead's frontman Thom Yorke set up a DJ-set for the crowd.

In Paris, because of the ban on public gatherings in the wake of recent terrorist attacks, 10,000 pairs of shoes were laid out in an installation to represent the people who could not march.
