Summary

This local protest in Uppsala, Sweden, demands immediate, large-scale, and global action to stop climate breakdown and addresses politicians, business leaders, but also each citizen.  The protest is inspired by the Fridays For Future protests, which were initiated by Greta Thunberg [Twitter, Instagram], and takes place in collaboration with the local Klimatstrejk Uppsala. This protest is organised on Saturdays to allow individuals who cannot participate in events on Fridays to express their opinion, share knowledge, and network. The protest aims to increase awareness of timelines and risks of climate breakdown as well and timelines, scale, and action to limit climate breakdown following the targets of the Paris agreement. General information will be provided as well as current events commented!

Everybody is welcome!
