Greta Thunberg arrives at London court for oil protest trial
Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg went on trial on Thursday for a public order offence related to a protest outside an oil and gas conference held in London last year. Thunberg, who became a prominent campaigner worldwide after staging weekly protests in front of the Swedish parliament in 2018, was arrested on Oct. 17. She and others had been protesting outside a hotel where the Energy Intelligence Forum was hosting oil and gas industry leaders.
