Greto Thunberg izgnali iz Benetk, potem ko je v kanal zlila zeleno barvo

Mladi podnebni aktivistki Greti Thunberg so po velikem protestu v Benetkah začasno prepovedali vstop v mesto. Dogodek se je zgodil pretekli konec tedna, ko je Thunbergova skupaj z aktivisti gibanja Extinction Rebellion poskušala opozoriti javnost na nujne ukrepe proti podnebnim spremembam.

V središču protestnega dogajanja je bil Veliki kanal v Benetkah, ki so ga aktivisti – po vzoru irskega praznika svetega Patrika – obarvali zeleno. Po trditvah organizatorjev protesta so v vodo zlili okolju prijazen barvni dodatek flurescein, ki je biološko razgradljiv in netoksičen, piše Unilad.

Za svoje dejanje je Thunbergova prejela globo v višini 150 evrov ter začasno 48-urno prepoved vstopa v Benetke. Enako kazen je prejelo še 35 drugih aktivistov.

Guverner beneške regije Luca Zaia je dejanje označil za »neprijetno za zgodovino in ranljivost mesta«. Po njegovih besedah gre za gesto, ki bi lahko imela posledice za okolje. Dejal je tudi, da gre aktivistom za selfije in ne za iskanje rešitev. Kljub temu pa so nekateri uporabniki družbenih omrežij izrazili podporo aktivistom in upanje, da bodo takšni protesti prispevali k večjemu ukrepanju v boju proti podnebnim spremembam.

Aktivisti so s sloganom »Ustavite ekocid« želeli opozoriti na škodljivo podnebno politiko italijanske vlade.

Skupina aktivistov je v sporočilu za javnost pojasnila: »Uporabili smo fluorescein – netoksično, biološko razgradljivo spojino –, s katero smo želeli opozoriti na ekocid. S sloganom 'Ustavite ekocid' obsojamo škodljivo podnebno politiko italijanske vlade in opozarjamo ljudi na uničujoče učinke podnebnih sprememb.«
