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.

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/…

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

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

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/…

The movie “I Am Greta” is now steaming on Hulu (USA), ARD Mediathek (Germany), DocPlay (Australia), Crave (Canada) and SVT play (Sweden).
In early 2021 also on BBC, NRK, DR, YLE and approx 70 other countries including China, Russia and India.

There's a myth that young people get anxious or depressed when people talk about the reality of the climate crisis.
My experience is the opposite.
The worst part is denial, looking away, downplaying or spreading false hope saying ”we'll fix this” without taking sufficient action.
92
Preliminary data show that the 2020 7% emission decrease is erased by a slightly weaker carbon land sink.
This is almost impossible to grasp... twitter.com/Peters_Glen/st…
93
Den förväntade CO2 utsläppsminskningen på 7% pga COVID-19 raderas troligtvis ut för att sänkor på land (tillfälligt?) försvagats. När kolsänkor försvagas eller blir till utsläppskällor ritas kartan om.
Men, vi har förstås fullt upp med andra nyheter... 4c-carbon.eu/sites/default/…

This is the place we call “normal”. But ”normal” was also a crisis, and it’s no place to return to after the pandemic. It’s a place we must leave to safeguard future living conditions. We must start to move towards a zero carbon society while leaving no one behind in the process.

This has been pointed out over and and over again throughout 2020 by leading experts and yet it has been pretty much completely ignored in the debate. twitter.com/swetac/status/…

My deepest gratitude to everyone fighting to wake people up to the climate and ecological crisis.
The reason we're still in this mess is because we're outnumbered by those telling us to go back to sleep, saying sufficient action is taken when it's not.
In 2021, let's change this!
99
But, hey! Our leaders have set up some vague hypothetical targets decades into the future full of loopholes and based on incomplete numbers - so we can all continue to ignore the consequences of our actions, pretend everything is all right and go back to sleep! twitter.com/tveitdal/statu…

Jag har avstått väldigt många flygresor under den här klimatkrisen, men den här resan tyckte jag var nödvändig.
