Description While I was spending some days in Helsinki I came across this quite original (well at least for the Greek standards) protest concerning the environmental laws. All the people were wearing blue garbage bag - looking costumes and were singing a song in Finnish. It was a very peaceful event, you could see people of all ages, mainly around 20-30, some of them even carrying their babies and toddlers with them!

A very interesting event, indeed. Especially for someone living in the always-so-rough Balkans

Bored, bored people.

While we here struggle for the basic human rights, they're having funny protest about environment. Haha.

Hot-blooded people have all gathered in the Balkans. It cannot be explained in any other way.

Δε νομίζω ότι πέφτει ξύλο εκεί πάντως. Και για το περιβάλλον που ήτανε, εσύ έχεις δει ποτέ διαδήλωση με τραγουδάκια και κουστούμια, τόσο οργανωμένα; Πολιτισμός, παιδί μου!

Seems like a protest.

Haven't really seen those that much... but the place looks a bit familiar.

By the way, 'ihmistulva' means 'human flood' xD

Thank you for the word "protest" I was striving to remember it and I couldn't What are they claiming/protesting about? Can you properly translate what it says? I used google translate and it said something like "Nature Climate Law" or something...

No problem.

It says: 'Demand the climate law now'

According to the webpage, it's about getting rid of harmful emissions. There should be a law that would help lowering the grades to avoid catastrophic climate change...

Yup, it was right :]
