I was born and raised in the area where theese windmills are. The 18 years of me living in that are i have never seen a single sami person, and at worst maybe a couple reindeer. The windmills are closer to the coast, and the thing they are complaining about is that some reindeer might occasionally wander close to that area. But of all the people in Oslo having a protest. Not a single one of them is from that area.
My view on the matter is that im pro windmill, im pro progression of the norwegian infrastructure and renewable energy. Norway is going through a energy price crisis because the government decided to sell more energy to neighbouring countries. But that part of norway and further north still has relatively cheap power because it is not connected to the same powerlines as south norway, and most of the power generated is from wind and water.

Reply to Norway: Thunberg joins Indigenous protests against turbines. The young environmental activist says green energy cannot come at the expense of human rights. A court order has deemed the turbines' location in Norway illegal, as they disrupt Sami reindeer-herding traditions by DoremusJessup
