A rebellious referendum in the pool before Sara Sjöström
Elin and Malin stopped Sarah Sjöström in the final of the Swim Open Stockholm
“I’ll do everything I can to ensure a ‘no’ vote on peat extraction in the referendum, even if it means sitting in a wet cell for eight hours. With the climate spiralling out of control, we must dismantle the fossil fuel industry step by step,” says Elin Sjöholm from Återställ Våtmarker
Why resistance?
It is about much more than just wetlands.
Science indicates that we are heading towards a global civilisational collapse and mass extinction, yet politicians are allowing continued destruction to take us to the brink.
DonateWho are we?
We exist because our politicians have long since betrayed all of humanity. It is now up to the people to do what those in power refuse to do - protect life and each other.
We do this by acting peacefully and effectively.
Our vision
We want the people to decide through citizens' councils how to make Sweden a great country that cares for its people.
Through an unprecedented transition, we will achieve a society free of greenhouse gas emissions and toxins, where the world's children can grow up safe and healthy.
Listen to the ‘Restore Wetlands’ podcast
In the sixth episode (a special episode, released on 15 May 2026), Tina and Lior chat with Klara Lindell, an allotment holder and soil specialist from the Stockholm Allotment Gardens’ ‘Skip the Peat’ campaign. Learn about peat-free gardening and how you can make your own soil
Listen to the podcastResearch about us
Research confirms that our disruptive actions have had an impact
The UK-based Social Change Lab has published a research report on the Restore Wetlands campaign.
The analysis, which spans from the movement's inception in 2022 until the movement declared victory for its wetland restoration demand in April 2024, provides strong support for Restore Wetlands' strategies and tactics and identifies a series of successes.
Supreme Court acquits protesters of sabotage
On 9 July, the Supreme Court delivered its judgment in the now famous sabotage case.
An almost three-year-long legal process has come to a conclusion. All members of Restore Wetlands are now acquitted for the demonstration they carried out in August 2022 on the E4 motorway in Stockholm.

collective action or collective suicide.

Give 1% of your salary for the climate
According to a study in Nature, 69% of the world's population is willing to give 1% of their salary to the fight against global warming. If you are one of them, you can easily give a gift to the fight.
Take the chance and support Sweden's most radical climate movement.
We have a plan on how to stop emissions and reach our vision.
For this we need enough money.

You are in a revolutionary time
The elite and those in power have forced you into a revolutionary situation. Because if our societies collapse, this century is the last chapter of humanity.
Humanity has reached a tipping point: the odds are against us and we need to do the impossible to save our civilisation and life on Earth from unimaginable suffering and global collapse.
But an act of love is performed no matter what the odds. Because without love, we can neither live nor survive.
Humans have defied the odds before with their will and co-operation - we can do it again. History has shown this, time and time again.
Which side of history do you want to be on?
