The article from MSN discusses how a group of teenagers who protested against former President Donald Trump's climate policies are now navigating their roles and influence in the current political climate under President Joe Biden.

With Biden in office, who has promised to prioritize climate action, these activists are reassessing their strategies. Some are now working within the system, engaging with policymakers, while others continue to push for more radical changes, feeling that Biden's policies, although a step forward, do not go far enough. The piece explores their evolving activism, their reflections on past protests, and their current efforts to ensure that climate change remains a central issue, highlighting the complexities of activism when the political landscape shifts.
