Greta Thunberg

Greta Thunberg, a Swedish environmental activist born in 2003, has rapidly become a
symbol of global climate change awareness. Despite her young age, she has captivated
the world with her passionate speeches and dedication to combatting climate change.

Thunberg's journey began in August 2018 when, at age 15, she started skipping school to
protest outside the Swedish Parliament, demanding stronger action on climate change.
Her solitary strike quickly gained recognition, which started a global movement known
as Fridays for Future, where students around the world protest for climate action every
Friday.

Her approach has earned her both admiration and criticism. Thunberg does not shy away
from calling out world leaders for their inaction, famously stating, "I want you to panic. I
want you to feel the fear I feel every day", Despite facing skepticism and criticism from
the population, Thunberg remains determined. She has addressed numerous world leaders
and international forums, including the United Nations Climate Action Summit, where
she gained attention.

Thunberg's impact extends beyond activism; she has inspired millions of young people to
join the fight for climate justice. Her influence transcends borders, cultures, and
generations, making her one of the most recognizable and influential figures in the global
environmental movement. With her determination and commitment to raising awareness,
Greta Thunberg continues to be a source of hope for a more sustainable future.
