Greta Thunberg Arrested Again in Climate Protest: A Continuing Call for Urgent Action

Climate activist Greta Thunberg faced her third arrest in six months as she and 400 protesters blocked the A12 motorway in The Netherlands.

Thunberg, emphasizing urgency in the face of a planetary emergency, was detained alongside others.

Video footage captured her removal by police officers amid chants of climate slogans. This marks Thunberg’s latest arrest following prior protests, including one outside the Swedish Parliament.

Since her impassioned UN speech in 2019, Thunberg has become a prominent figure in climate activism, engaging with world leaders and participating in demonstrations across Europe to raise awareness about climate change’s dire consequences.
