[15][16][17], At an April 2019 meeting at the European Parliament in Strasbourg with MEPs and EU officials, Thunberg chided those present "for three emergency Brexit summits and no emergency summit regarding the breakdown of the climate and the environment". Below is the transcript of the speech of Greta Thunberg at the COP24 in Katowice, Poland. "[29], The speech was incorporated in various musical performances. Thunberg told CNN she doesn't fly, doesn't eat meat (beef is a major contributor to climate change) and tries not to buy new things unless they're absolutely necessary in order to do her part. Even the negotiators know they're not doing nearly enough to reach that goal and avoid disastrous effects of climate chance, which include the end of coral reefs, rising seas, stronger superstorms and deadlier heatwaves. "[28] Thunberg did not directly comment on Trump's tweet but she did make a change to her Twitter bio wherein she described herself as "A very happy young girl looking forward to a bright and wonderful future. Young people were joined by adults for the first time since the strikes began. "[18][19], In May 2019, Thunberg met with Arnold Schwarzenegger, United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres, and Austrian President Alexander Van der Bellen at the launch of a conference organised by Schwarzenegger to speed up progress toward the Paris Agreement. "But the young people are starting to understand your betrayal. Thunberg’s mother was an opera singer, and her father was an actor. Greta hat uns allen gezeigt, was möglich ist, wenn wir für unsere Überzeugung einsetzen. [1] Her speech at the 2018 United Nations climate summit made her a household name. When she was eight, she started learning about climate change. But everyone is not suffering its consequences equally," Thunberg said in a statement.

Thunberg, who describes herself on Twitter as a "15 year old climate activist with Asperger's," said she was inspired by the school walkouts in the United States that followed the deadly school shooting in Parkland, Florida. Greta’s message to the world is simple: fine words about the climate are not enough. Thunberg stated. Speculating that her children and grandchildren would ask her why they had not taken action in 2018 when there was still time, she concluded with "we can't change the world by playing by the rules, because the rules have to be changed. Greta Tintin Eleonora Ernman Thunberg (Swedish: [ˈɡrêːta ˈtʉ̂ːnbærj] (); born 3 January 2003) is a Swedish environmental activist who has gained international recognition for promoting the view that humanity is facing an existential crisis arising from climate change. [3], On 24 November 2018, she spoke at TEDxStockholm. That led to more than 10,000 students walking out of classes, he told CNN. And if you choose to fail us, I say: We will never forgive you. [11], On 21 February 2019, she spoke at a conference of the European Economic and Social Committee and to European Commission chief Jean-Claude Juncker, where she said that to limit global warming to less than the two degrees C goal established at the Paris Agreement, the EU must reduce their CO2 emissions by 80% by 2030, double the 40% goal set in Paris. Greta was diagnosed with Asperger syndrome, which is now considered an autism spectrum disorder (ASD). A hearthfelt, harsh speech she gave with a calm voice, addressing the world’s leaders. You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words.
