Climate march turned into a pro-Palestinian action on Greta Thunberg's initiative

Climate march turned into a pro-Palestinian action on Greta Thunberg’s initiative The largest climate march in Amsterdam’s history took place on Sunday 12 November, with 85,000 people taking part. The event was led by Swedish activist Greta Thunberg, who gave an emotional speech and passed the microphone to PAX Peace Dove 2023 winner Sahar Shirzad. In her speech, Shirzad uttered the pro-Palestinian slogan “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free!“ several times. This angered people on stage and in the audience. One participant attempted to take the microphone away from the speakers with the words “I came for a climate march, not a political debate“. The event took place ahead of the main annual climate forum, COP28, which will be held in Dubai in late November/early December. “The goal of the Paris Agreement (2015, signed by 194 countries) was to curb the increase in global average temperature “well below 2°“ above pre-industrial levels and to “endeavour“ to limit the increase to 1.5°. It has now warmed by 1.1° to 1.2°. At the current rate, multiple projections suggest that this target will fail“ - Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. #3 Our channel: Node of Time EN Источник: Node of Time EN
