Police talk to Greta Thunberg as they move climate activists from the organization Ta Tillbaka Framtiden, who are blocking the entrance to Oljehamnen in Malmo, Sweden, June 19, 2023. REUTERSPIX: Swedish climate campaigner Greta Thunberg is set to go on trial on Monday charged with disobeying police at a rally last month, in which activists blocked the port in the city of Malmo.
The rally, organised by environmental activist group “Ta tillbaka framtiden” , tried to block the entrance and exit to the Malmo harbour to protest against the use of fossil fuel. Thunberg shot to global fame after starting her “School Strike for the Climate” in front of Sweden’s parliament in Stockholm at the age of 15.
In addition to her climate strikes, the young activist regularly lambasts governments and politicians for not properly addressing climate issues.
