"Greta Thunberg" (2003 – ) Environmentalist activist

Greta Thunberg is a Swedish environmental activist who has gained international recognition for her work in promoting climate action. At the age of 15, she began to protest outside the Swedish Parliament to draw attention to the inaction of government leaders on climate change. Her efforts raised awareness around the world and led to a global movement of youth activists advocating for climate justice.

The story of Greta Thunberg began in August 2018 when she started her school strike for climate. On Fridays, she would sit outside the Swedish Parliament in Stockholm and demand that the government take action on climate change. Despite the cold weather and criticism from some people, Greta continued to protest every week. Her actions quickly gained media attention and inspired other young people to join her in her fight. Greta's message also reached the global stage, with her speaking at the United Nations Climate Action Summit in New York in 2019. Her passionate speech called on world leaders to take immediate action on climate change. She said, “You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words. And yet I'm one of the lucky ones. People are suffering. People are dying. Entire ecosystems are collapsing. We are in the beginning of a mass extinction, and all you can talk about is money and fairy tales of eternal economic growth. How dare you!” Greta's actions have inspired many people to take part in climate activism. She has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize and has received many awards for her work. She has also been featured in documentaries, books and magazines. Today, Greta continues to be a strong advocate for climate action. She has called for global leaders to take responsibility for their actions and make necessary changes to protect the planet. Her message is simple: we must act now to stop the climate crisis. Her efforts have made a difference and will continue to do so in the future.
