Around 35,000 people marched for climate on Sunday in the center of the Dutch capital Amsterdam.

The march started at 1 p.m. local time at Dam square and ended at the Museumplein square. Some participants, including kids, held banners reading "Dinosaurs also thought they had time" and "What would the world look like if I am as old as you".

The protesters demand more action from politicians to combat climate change. The march was organized by several civil organizations.

One month ago, over 10,000 schoolchildren had their own protest with a march through the city of The Hague.
