Greta Thunberg was forcibly removed by the Swedish police for blocking the entrance to parliament for a second day along with a few dozen other climate activists.
Ms Thunberg, who was in a sit-down protest against “political inaction” over the spiralling climate crisis, was picked up by two police officers and dragged away from the parliament building.
“The climate justice movement has, for decades, been repeating the same message over and over again, like a broken record, and we feel like we are not being heard,” Ms Thunberg told the Associated Press.
This week’s protests came as the EU Environment Agency released its first-ever continent-wide assessment of the risks of the climate crisis, warning members states to prepare for its “catastrophic” impacts.
“Hundreds of thousands of people would die from heatwaves, and economic losses from coastal floods alone could exceed €1 trillion per year,” the report warned under a pessimistic projection of warming trends.
A UK court acquitted her last month for obstructing the entrance to a major oil conference after the judge ruled that there wasn’t enough evidence to convict.
