SCRIPT
Amazon workers staged a walkout at the tech giant's headquarters in Seattle on Friday to show solidarity with climate strikes taking place across the world.
The protest, which was organised by an internal group called Amazon Employees for Climate Justice, saw an estimated 3,000 workers attend a rally outside the company's Spheres complex.
Demonstrators brought signs and listened to speeches from environmental activists.
The tech giant recently pledged to go carbon neutral by 2040.
The strike in Seattle was one of many taking place in US cities and across the world.
The global action follows a series of school strikes initially inspired by Swedish teenager and climate activist Greta Thunberg.
