Thunberg was outside the Swedish National Assembly along with other protesters, and it ushered in a day of global and socially distant climate demonstrations.
In all, more than 3,000 school strikes are planned under the auspices of Thunberg Fridays for the future movement. The school strike is now in its 110th week.
– We are on strike in more than 3,100 places. In Sweden, gatherings of more than 50 people are not allowed due to covid-19, so we adapt, writes Thunberg on Instagram.
On Friday, young activists gathered in 80 other places in Sweden, according to TT. They demand a change in climate policy, so that the world achieves the objectives set in the Paris Agreement.
– The pandemic has shown us that politicians have the power to act quickly and according to the best available research. But even during a pandemic, the climate threat does not become less real. No steps have been taken to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions in a sustainable and fair way, says Alde Fermskog of Fridays for future in a press release.
The goal of the Paris Agreement, signed in 2015, is to keep global warming below 2 degrees and try to limit the temperature rise to 1.5 degrees.
