Highlights: Uppsala was one of about fifty cities around the world where "Rebel mothers" gathered on Saturday to demonstrate for the climate. "I want to give my child everything, but what does it matter if the earth becomes uninhabitable?" says Annie Mattsson. "We are here with our emotions and hope that it opens its eyes to what is happening. We have already drawn the arguments," says Mattsson in the video clip above. In the clip above, she tells us more about the demonstration.

About 50 "Rebel Mothers" sat down in a circle next to Stora torget – singing about how climate change must be stopped. "I want to give my child everything, but what does it matter if the earth becomes uninhabitable?" says Annie Mattsson.
