“It just proves that the climate and ecological crisis cannot be solved within today’s systems. There are no tools, no laws nor regulations that keep us from destroying the living conditions for life on this planet as we know it.”

This may come as a complete surprise to some of you, but there are people speaking other languages than English:) And for that reason social media platforms have translate buttons. They work brilliantly. You should try it sometime - to connect outside the English-speaking world. twitter.com/GretaThunberg/…

Om inte för din egen skull så för de i riskgrupper, för personal inom vård och omsorg och av respekt för alla de som förlorat jobb, inkomstkälla, hälsa eller nära och kära i pandemins spår. Behandla alla kriser som en kris, lyssna på vetenskapen och visa solidaritet. God jul! 2/2

Nu införs skärpta restriktioner. Det är upp till oss alla att ta ansvar och agera för samhällets och våra medmänniskors bästa. Vi unga har ett enormt ansvar.
Följ rekommendationer! Stanna hemma i den mån det går. Håll avstånd och använd munskydd där trängsel inte kan undvikas.1/2

As devastating as this is - it can’t compare with the fact that this doesn’t dominate the news. Not even for one day. In the best case it’s just another news story among others.
As long as the crisis is not treated like a crisis the changes needed won’t be possible. twitter.com/GretaThunberg/…

Sweden is heading for an unprecedented heat record. The national annual temperature average 2020 will be 7.5°C. That’s about 2.8°C (!!) above 1960-1990 baseline. And 0.6°C (!!!) above previous record from 2014. These numbers are literally off the charts.

If this is how you act after declaring a "climate emergency" then maybe everyone hasn't fully understood the meaning of that term... twitter.com/Independent/st…

Yes. And as soon the rest of the money is received my foundation will donate that too. So far half of the prize money has been given out. In order to receive the other half I first have to travel to Lisbon - which is not possible today with school and the ongoing pandemic... twitter.com/Publico/status…

”Direkt pinsamt är att Sverige är betydligt sämre på att skydda skog än i länder där regnskog avverkas som Brasilien och Malaysia. Enligt FN ligger Sverige på 99:e plats, medan Brasilien ligger på 33:e plats och Malaysia på plats 73.”

"In other words, the Government has just committed to reducing less than 1 percent of the country's emissions by 2025".

“We need to step up our game” all our leaders keep saying.
Well then, please go ahead!
You don’t need UN summits, treaties or ”deals” to start lowering emissions.
Nor do you need to wait for anyone else.
You can start right this second!
No-one is stopping you.

At the #ClimateAmbitionSummit leaders celebrate their shameless loopholes, empty words, distant insufficient goals and
theft of present and future living conditions - calling it "ambition".
There are no climate leaders.
The only ones who can change this is you and me. Together.

The ”net” in ”net-zero emissions” could be among the greatest - and most dangerous - loopholes ever created. The fact that our governments are using the same language as the worlds most polluting fossil fuel companies really says it all... #FightFor1Point5

UK and many other nations targets have basically the same problems. Like baseline manipulation, heavily depending on technology that doesn’t exist at scale and likely never will, consumption not included. And completely ignoring the aspect of equity.

The EUs so called "55% reduction target by 2030" has got nothing to do with a real 55% emission reduction.
Our article from October explains why all the proposed EU targets are far from being in line with the #ParisAgreement

School strike week 121. Tomorrow marks 5 yrs since the Paris Agreement. 5 yrs of inaction and creating loopholes.
We can’t go on like this.
Time to move from distant ”net zero” targets to real zero with binding, annual CO2 budgets starting now.
