One of many, the Youth for Climate Luxembourg demonstration is taking place in tandem with protests outside Brazilian embassies worldwide.

'I want you to panic': European demos held over Amazon firesSince Luxembourg doesn't have an official Brazilian embassy, the protest took place in front of the Schueberfouer on 23 August at 5pm. The Facebook post announcing the protest highlighted that they will 'scream loud and clear that political inaction is bringing us to nature’s literal death.'
