At noon, the activists of the last generation drew attention to the current climate crisis and caused chaos in traffic. Around 13:00 they remained on the street at the Salztorbrücke/corner of Schwedenplatz and again caused traffic congestion in the inner city.
After causing a stir in the morning with their mega protest, Monday afternoon was far from over. Several participants blocked the streets with banners (“We’re racing into climate hell!”).
concreted in by hand
Their message has remained the same: 100 km/h on Austrian roads and a ban on fracking. The action was broken up by the police after 30 minutes. An activist caused a stir in the morning after she concreted her own hand on the north bridge.
As recently as Monday morning, the climate activists had blocked several streets and bridges throughout Vienna by holding out on the streets. The result was a mega traffic jam. Traffic on the Floridsdorfer Bridge in the direction of the city was paralyzed. The Noordbrug, the Reichsbrug and the Praterbrug were also affected by the actions.
Radical forms of protest
To draw attention to the climate crisis, the last generation uses radical forms of protest, such as sticking to the street or pouring soup over well-known photos. They also disrupted the Vienna Marathon this year to draw attention to their demands. They also accept sanctions for this.
