Greta Thunberg is a Swedish environmental activist who gained international recognition for her work to combat climate change. She began her activism in August 2018, when at the age of 15, she began protesting outside the Swedish parliament, demanding stronger action on climate change. Her protests inspired students around the world to join her in a global movement of youth-led strikes for climate action, known as Fridays for Future.
Thunberg has been invited to speak at conferences and summits around the world, including the United Nations Climate Action Summit in New York City in September 2019, where she delivered a powerful speech in which she criticized world leaders for their lack of action on climate change. Thunberg has continued to speak out on the issue and has been named as one of the most influential people in the world by Time magazine.
Thunberg has also been the recipient of numerous awards and honors for her activism, including the Right Livelihood Award and the Amnesty International Ambassador of Conscience Award. In 2021, she was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize for her work on the Climate Strike movement.
She is known for her strong speeches and her ability to raise awareness about the Climate change and its effects on the world, encouraging people and leaders to take action to mitigate it.
