Greta Thunberg is a 16-year-old Swedish student who is really pushing our leaders to act about climate change. Every Friday she stands impatiently on the threshold of powerful institutions making the case for zero carbon. She has convinced 100,000 fellow teens around the world to follow her example in striking for the climate.
“At Davos, people like to talk about success, but financial success has come with a price tag, and on the climate we have failed. And unless we recognize the failures of our system, there will be unspoken suffering.”
She was able to make a presentation to the World Economic Forum.
Was this a PR bit by the Forum? Or, will some thing really happen?
Thanks to a fellow Duncaster resident for making me aware of Thunberg's work.
