Greta Thunberg Detained By Police Twice At Coal Mine Protest

Vegan climate activist Greta Thunberg was briefly detained by German police after participating in a protest against a proposed new coal mine expansion. Thunberg, along with around 6,000 other demonstrators, protested the decision to demolish a village to make way for the mine project, instead advocating for renewable energy sources.

During the protest, Thunberg called out Germany for being one of the world's largest polluters and expressed the need for accountability for its contribution to climate change. Thunberg has been a vocal presence at the protest site, participating in multiple demonstrations before being detained twice by police. Despite the altercations, Thunberg remains dedicated to her cause, stating that "climate protection is not a crime."
