The activists, mainly teenagers, lay outside the ministry entrance holding Sami flags and a poster reading “Land Back.”
The protesters from organizations called Young Friends of The Earth Norway and the Norwegian Sami Association’s youth council NSR-Nuorat, said “the ongoing human rights violations” against Sami reindeer herders “must come to an end.” Several of the activists donned the Sami’s traditional bright-colored dress and put up a tent used by the Arctic people.
In October 2021, Norway’s Supreme Court ruled that the construction of the wind turbines violated the rights of the Sami, who have been using the land to raise reindeer for centuries. However, the wind farm is still operating.“It is absurd that the Norwegian government has chosen to ignore the ruling,” said Thunberg, who joined the protest early Monday.
Over the weekend, the protesters had occupied the ministry’s lobby but were evicted by police early Monday, according to Norwegian broadcaster NRK. They shifted their protest to chaining themselves outside the main entrance to the ministry, prompting authorities to urge employees to work from home.
Dealing with climate change is super-urgent! But less urgent than… reindeer farming?
What kind of power does that bullhorn run on? Methane from bull shit.
My God....she's really just annoying at this point...
West Texas is now dotted with large expanses of wind turbines and that the ranchers there don't seem to have any problems grazing cattle amongst them
Professional protester shows up at protest. And now the weather
climate change scam

yikes. Hope that GretaThunberg realizes that climate change is a much more serious threat to indigenous life than *checks notes* ... a wind farm
For MANY progressives, protest is their art and hobby. No real dedication to a cause.
Weird how the ethnic European farmers don't seem to be classified as 'indigenous' for protections from these state-backed climate panic initiatives 🤔
Career activism without any thought to pragmatic solutions. News outlets have a hard on for the type of response that can get.
Windmills are destroying the planet! Thank you Greta for your efforts in stopping these bird chopping eyesores which are destroying the natural beauty of our planet and killing our whales. Now let's smash these emer effers to hell and grind them into dust!!
The environmental activist industry has gone from pro-environment to anti-human.
Greta wants to go back to the Stone Age.
The West is inherently unserious. The other half of the planet is strip mining and polluting without criticism, and we can’t even build fucking windmills.
Is this the Onion!?
Lol. Always funny when the left eats itself.
They aren't letting the reindeer play in any reindeer games?
To think, one nuclear power plant could produce the energy of that wind farm on a fraction of the land and not be totally dependent on the whims of nature.
Whatever will be her agenda ….she’s actually fighting to stay relevant
Does she just live in a cave then? How does she justify electricity at all?
They just wanna bitch
What is she in favor of besides being a carbon emitting hypocrite?
Shouldn’t this little clown be in school?
JesseKellyDC The communists are fighting each other.
So “greenies” are boycotting “clean energy?” Guess it’s not so clean, huh, Joe, John, and Al🧐
But Greta- they are not like rudolph, these reindeer don't need airspace. The can simply walk under the windmills.
I think it would be a great idea for media to start ignoring Greta Thunberg.
Good. Drill for oil save the wind!!
Is this because Santa would crash into the blades?
I hate wind farms!
They're starting to eat themselves. Get out their way and let them do it.
I’m concerned that we have outsourced our climate messaging to retarded teenagers in Europe
Good, ban windmills and solar panels.
What's funny about this is all the rest of the Norwegians are indigenous too.
Greta who?
i mean are they right? is it a big problem?
I think we’ve lost the plot
😂😂😂
Tell me climate change isn’t really an existential threat in one article.
Dozens.
Wow plot twist
Love all the white people in these comments completely shitting on any concerns for Indigenous people. More 'progress' by destroying people's land and their culture. Bravo.
Lmao that poor girl will be so irrelevant
Lol... she is just an activist. Expects all of us to suffer the burden of radical change, except if you check some demo box.
Pure 🤡energy yet again
Man I need to find me some reindeer, I hate those ugly windmills
Lol, wut
What's powering the megaphone?
Lets revert to sustainable Scandinavian gdp of 800-1000 AD. Wait, not sure that worked so well for Europe... hmm...
Offs
She knows the reindeer don’t actually fly, right?
And just when I was starting to respect Thunberg an an effective, focused environmentalist.
They want a massive structural shift towards renewables without any negative externalities. Seems doable.
degrowth is a cancer
Correction…dozens of children who have no grasp of the real world
Doom Pixie protests...(checks notes)...clean energy?
Fix it bring back oil .
Is she just anti energy or what
We've come full circle.
Wait until she finds out those reindeer herders actually eat most of those reindeer.
I'm beginning to think she just likes to complain.
How will the indigenous people get clean energy equity without these windmills.
Ultimately, people like GretaThunberg (or more so her parents) will continue to attack all forms of energy because it's all part of the grift. On the exterior, they feel they are building a legacy, while inside, they are building a fortune
She's a child and is just always taking temper tantrums.....how deep can she really speak to climate change, economics etc......seriously......
someone needs to drop this spoiled brat off into the tundra with just the clothes on her back (petroleum-based fabrics unfortunately) and let her live like it's 1700's. Maybe then she'll see how great we have it now due to petroleum use.
She's a willing pawn in her demented parents game.
She used to be just a tool. Now she's an addict as well.
Protesting non-fossil fuel energy sources?
Make up your mind greenies. Either you want miles and miles of inefficient wind and solar or you don’t. You Should’ve been asking for more nuclear power the entire time, but here we are.
Is no one else going to point out that she's occupying a foreign country and engaging in cultural appropriation? CancelGreta
She should be boycotting fetal alcohol syndrome.
It's all a scam, all lies, none of what she says means anything. Stop reporting on her. Relegate her to a card table in front of a train station, where she can rant all she wants.
She is being used, and her parents don't care. Shame on these leeches
And the winner for 2023 Least Diverse Protest Group goes to ...
This poor creature is steered anywhere her parents and handlers think they can get attention. Does anyone think she determines any of this activity herself?
She, and so many others, are nothing more than aggrieved conflict junkies.
Her again? Greta, concern yourself w your pronouns & tofu. Thanks, ALL OF US.
theomniliberal i don't think Greta is a very good climate activist... i don't think she's a good activist in general and she seems more concerned about mugging the camera
If you could alert GretaThunberg to what is happening on the East Coast of the US, we'd appreciate the help. Using sonar to map the ocean floor to install wind turbines is resulting in endless beached whales and affected sea life.
Gosh, turns out energy production is a complicated process.
But she hasn’t given a fig about the countless Ginsued birds lying dead at the base of these wildlife blenders. As someone else strongly suggested, ‘get a job’.
When you've been raised to be a professional victim, you can find offense in anything.
Commies gonna do what Commies do....
Ole Greta is like an angry chihuahua,barking at everything and not knowing why.
'Dozens'? How is this newsworthy?
Block heads, look at em it’s uncanny
Amazingly confused people. They should not be allowed to influence legislation...
And in true ecoalarmist fashion GretaThunberg has gone full NIMBY, soon to transition into BANANA then into her final for as a CAVE member.
That fight was already won. Now they're bitching because nobody knows what to actually DO about the 151 turbines and miles of road that are in place. Any ideas on the ACTUAL case, GretaThunberg ?
How DARE she! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Professional protest actress. Would have thought her 15 minutes was up by now.
I suggest all of these people volunteer their land for one of these wind turbines.
Cool story, bro.
How about the wind farms killing the whales in New Jersey & New York.
White on white crime's never pretty.
First it was climate change, now it’s reindeer, next will be foot fungus disparities between the northern and southern Hemispheres. I’m starting to think this girl just doesn’t want to be happy
But how will they charge their electric cars then? 🤡🤡🤡🤡
She's downright hapless.
'sami indigenous people' 😜
All women in the pic
lol
Greta and her buddies need to take their unrealistic expectations & go live in a bubble far away from everyone else. Every single thing we do has consequences, and there's no way to avoid all of them.
Your regular reminder that most climate activists are hard leftists that use climate change as a skin suit to advance an anti-capitalist, anti-liberal agenda aimed at the curtailment of individual liberty and the authoritarian redistribution of economic & political power.
'WE NEED SUSTAINABLE ENERGY NOW!!!' 'Nuclear?' 'NO, NOT THAT!!' 'Wind?' 'NO, NOT THERE!!' 'Jesus christ' Clown show 🤡 🤡🤡🤡🤡
I’m with Greta on this one.
Lol
Wow. Dozens, you say? Also, lmao at Greta protesting wind farms.
Does this compete with one of Ingmar Renthog’s own green profiteering ventures, or did he ditch her and let her go rogue finally?
Environmentalism is just a cover for being anti-White
The wind farms are a gigantic waste of resources and land! Terrible idea to put them in the ocean as well as it is recking havoc on the whale population as well as birds
up is down, reindeer fly and greta will be there...
Is this not indigenous?
Greta is protesting every source of energy production now, yes?
Pick a lane little lady, pick a lane.
Proving once again how the biggest names in the environmental movement are unserious frauds.
Cc iMac_too . Global aandolanonjivi.
Lol.
Lol this is hilarious
Lol
The Norwegians were there first. Being 13% Asiatic does not make you 'indigenous'.
thunberg in controlled opposition
Indigenous sapmi my ass. Us Norwegians have lived in these lands thousands of years before those ching chongs even crossed the urals and came here in the first century. Go back to Asia, tartar scum.
Another group of Indigenous people (Norwegians) want that wind farm though
Is this from the onion?
haha what
It's a fucking wind farm, I thought those weren't going to pollute. This little snot nose brat needs to be in the headlines once a week or she gets arrested at a German mine.
Bunch of weirdos
Reindeer only fly Christmas eve, they should be fine.
人類不該為了自己利益電力！去對待原住民及動物棲息地。這不道德！上帝不允准。
So now she’s boycotting clean energy?
Who runs this person?
Can’t have it both way Greta……..
I didn't think a wind farm could be a problem for reindeer, it's not a closed space
Wonder how much she got paid for that
But reindeer can fly! They could build nests on top of the turbines, and watch for Santa's safe return. He'll have a sack full of feigned rage and imagined offence.. Enough for all! This is absolutely possible, as the reindeer identify as geese now. Who wants to try to stop them?
Where does Rudolph stand on this issue? Are the other reindeers making fun of his fear of wind farms?
Nature lovers and friends 🙂🙂🙂
I am over the teen twit
I would think reindeer could just go around the poles. There's plenty of space for both to coexist.
Spoiled teenager says what?
Greta, you need some consistency here. This makes it look like you're protesting because you like to protest.
Put them on some other person's land.
So you want green energy... just where exactly is it supposed to go? Get a job.
