Outside the Finnish Parliament, members of Isovanhemmat vaativat ilmastotekoja (“Grandparents Demand Climate Action”) stood proudly, wearing reflective vests and holding banners in Finnish, Swedish, and Spanish. Their message was clear: climate action cannot wait, not for themselves, but for the generations to come. With decades of life experience behind them, these seniors are raising their voices to protect the world their grandchildren will inherit.

Eduskuntatalon edessä seisoi ryhmä Isovanhemmat vaativat ilmastotekoja -liikkeen jäseniä, kirkkaissa liiveissään ja kylttien kanssa. Viesti oli selkeä: ilmastotoimia tarvitaan nyt, ei heidän itsensä vuoksi, vaan tulevien sukupolvien tähden. Nämä kokeneet kansalaiset käyttävät ääntään suojellakseen maailmaa, jonka heidän lapsenlapsensa perivät.

“There is no set list for Devo because they didn’t play that day. They got onstage and were ready to go, but we’re shut down because of the rain. Bummer that they didn’t even get to play one song. That’s the main reason I came to the show.”

In this scene: Itâs early morning November 04 2021 and mum and I are slowly gathering ourselves for the journey home from our time in London. As a side comment; we got upgraded to a suite with a window view spanning what seemed from within the whole width of Parliament. As I put the kettle on to make us a brew I turned the news on â BREAKING NEWS! Extinction Rebellion have blocked the road (a major route) into Westminster and The Houses of Parliament; a peaceful protest against crimes to the environment and a message to Government. I opened the curtains to find that what was being relayed on the TV news was developing in real-time (seen just right of Big Ben as you view this image) from our expansive hotel viewpoint. We sipped our tea, watched and listened. Stuck in a trance-like state of the moment I suddenly became conscious; âSh!t mum! Weâd better get ready our trainâs at..!â And so our scurrying began.
I donât actually recall capturing the scene. I certainly missed the glory of this burning sunrise. Sometimes youâre in the moment when youâre not really in the moment.
