Week 291. Today for the fifth day in a row, young people blocked entrances to the Swedish parliament to draw attention to the climate crisis and all those suffering from it today. Today it is also the fifth anniversary of the first global climate strike, when we filled the streets in our millions and striked for climate justice.
We are not going anywhere. This fight has only just begun.

This week, for four days in a row, young people have been blocking the entrances to the Swedish parliament – the Riksdag – to demand climate justice. We will be back tomorrow morning and hope to see you there outside the parliament!
We cannot be bystanders in a planetary emergency that is threatening both present and future basic living conditions, and where people are sacrificed to benefit short term economic profits for the rich minority. The science is clear, and the most affected people have long been sounding the alarm about the consequences of today’s business as usual, but they have been ignored and actively silenced. When injustice is norm, resistance becomes duty. We urge everyone to join us in the fight for climate justice!

Week 292. Today we are several people and groups protesting in Sundsvall, outside @scaskog AGM. Forestry is Sweden’s single largest emitter of greenhouse gases, and the main driving factor behind loss of habitat and species. SCA is Europe’s largest private forest owner, and we are demanding an end to their systematic clearcutting of irreplaceable natural forests with high importance for climate and biodiversity. After the demonstration, some of us went inside their AGM to ask the uncomfortable answers they don’t want to answer and demand accountability.
SCAs forestry is built on systematically expanding into the last remaining natural forests, forests whose conditions are vital for many species and which have stored carbon for up to thousands of years and thus both slow down and act as protection against the climate crisis. These ecosystems are then destroyed to make place for the replanting of environmentally harmful monocultural tree plantations. Often, these monocultures consist of invasive lodgepole pine, which is devastating for indigenous Sámi reindeer herding.
Clearcutting is also a climate bomb. The carbon that is emitted during the clearcuts takes many decades for the replanted trees to reabsorb. This is time we do not have in an escalating climate emergency. After harvesting, the vast majority of the biomass goes to short-lived products and bioenergy with a higher carbon footprint than burning fossil fuels.
The level of awareness around these issues is almost non-existent today. In this knowledge gap, false solutions to the climate and environmental crisis flourish. False solutions that lead to increased exploitation of nature, continued emissions of greenhouse gases that destabilise the planet and cause the death and suffering of countless people, and continued colonisation and destruction of lands that we all depend on.
We demand protection and restoration of forest ecosystems, an end to clear-cutting and the planting of lodgepole pine as well as a transition to making long-lived products.
