    ten-day protest outside the seat of the Environment Ministry

    Environmental activists began a ten-day protest, organized by the Fridays for Future (FFF), Universities for Climate, Extinction Rebellion and We Are the Limits (Limity jsme my) groups, outside the seat of the Environment Ministry today, on Monday, November 16, 2020, in order to make the Czech coal commission members recommend the soonest possible date to phase out coal mining and burning, Fridays for Future spokesman Petr Doubravsky said. The coal commission is to recommend the coal end date on November 26 and the Czech government is to decide on it by the end of the year. Doubravsky pointed out that the end of coal mining in Czechia proposed for 2033, 2038 and 2043 are insufficient with respect to the commitments of the Paris climate agreement.
