Erin Curtis is 16, from Glasgow, and a member of the Scottish Youth Climate Strikes and UK Youth Strike 4 Climate Network.

The global strike kicks off a week of activities and Erin is exhausted. Erin's eco activism was inspired by a love of marine biology. She takes us to her favourite beach which is full of stories and discoveries. But now exams are looming and she has to make a difficult decision, so she talks to her friends and asks them for advice.
