After more than four million people went on strike around the world to demand transformative climate action, Greta Thunberg, the 16-year-old Swedish climate activist, told the world leaders her generation would not forgive them if they “choose to fail” them. She and 15 other children later filed a complaint against five countries over the climate crisis.
In the UN climate summit that was held on Monday, Greta Thunberg said, “We are at the beginning of mass extinction, and all you can talk about is the money and fairy tales of eternal economic growth. How dare you! My message is that we’ll be watching you.”
“You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words, yet I’m one of the lucky ones. People are suffering, people are dying, entire ecosystems are collapsing.”
In August 2018, Greta Thunberg started a school strike for the climate outside the Swedish Parliament that has since spread all over the world and now involves over 100,000 schoolchildren. The movement is now called ‘Fridays For Future.’
