The streets of the Netherlands have once again witnessed the arrest of Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg on Saturday at a protest after she helped block roads near the parliament.

Extinction Rebellion demonstrators attempted to block the A12 highway in The Hague, when police prevented the activists from doing so, but then protesters sat down on the road and one of them was Thunberg.

Thunberg told Dutch broadcaster RTL Nieuws, “We are here because we’re facing an existential crisis...We are in a planetary emergency, and we are not going to stand by and let people lose their lives and livelihood and, of course, become climate refugees when we can do something.”

Last month, Thunberg and four others charged with public order offenses during a London protest outside the InterContinental hotel were cleared after a judge ruled that the prosecution had failed to present compelling or sufficient evidence.

Thunberg, along with Christofer Kebbon, Joshua James Unwin, Jeff Rice, and Peter Barker, had faced charges of "failing to comply with a condition imposed under section 14 of the Public Order Act" during their demonstration outside the Mayfair hotel. The protest coincided with the Energy Intelligence Forum (EIF), a summit attended by fossil fuel industry leaders and government officials.
