Seminar paper from the year 2024 in the subject American Studies - Linguistics, grade: 2, http://www.uni-jena.de/ (Institut für Anglistik/ Amerikanistik), course: Text and Discourse Linguistics, language: English, abstract: This paper analyzes the discursive strategies employed by the leaders of Fridays for Future movement to effectively convey their messages and shape the audience's perceptions within the broader climate change discourse.

Climate change has been a significant subject, especially in recent years when its consequences are getting worse e.g. the global temperature is always breaking record. However, there exist various perspectives regarding climate change, such as resistance to change or active advocacy for environmental preservation. In this scenario, the significance of climate activists is growing. When talking about climate activists, the leaders of the Fridays for Future (FFF) movement, Greta Thunberg and Luisa Neuerbau, must be mentioned. This movement has gained substantial recognition and mobilized millions of individuals across the globe to demand urgent action on climate change. One of the ways they mobilize is through speeches, so how they use language as well as discursive strategies is one important factor in persuading the audience and showing their ideology. However, as far as I researched, there is no paper talking about the use of discursive strategies in their speeches.
