How did a 15-year-old high school student from Sweden become the world's most
famous climate change activist?
Greta Thunberg was born in Stockholm, Sweden, in 2003. Her mother Malena is a
famous opera singer, and her father Svante was an actor until he quit to look after Greta and
her little sister Beata. Greta was a shy girl who didn't say much at school, and this led to
bullying by some of the other kids. It got so bad that Greta became very depressed and even
stopped eating. She lost a lot of weight and could have died if her parents hadn't found
specialist doctors with a treatment plan that worked. Her mum and dad also found her a new
school, and making new friends also helped her to recover and become interested in the
wider world again.
Greta first learned about climate change when she was 8 years old. Even at that young
age she could see it was a serious problem, and the more she learned as she grew older, the
more worried she became. She learned that carbon dioxide (CO2) was one of the greenhouse
gases causing global warming and climate change, and that airline flights released many
tonnes of CO2
into the atmosphere. Nearly everyone she knew said the climate crisis was
very serious, but they also made it worse by flying all over the world for their holidays.
Everyone was saying the right things, but nobody was doing the right things. So Greta
decided to do something about it.
She had heard about workers going on strike to demand better pay, and imagined
students going on strike to demand more action against climate change. She told her friends
about her idea, but none of them seemed interested in joining her. Instead of giving up, Greta
asked her dad to take her to a building supplies store where she bought a board and some
paints. Then she made a big sign and painted the words "School Strike for the Climate" in
Swedish. She also printed flyers full of facts about the climate crisis. After breakfast on
August 20 2018, she rode her bicycle to the Swedish parliament where the government met.
Svante rode behind her, carrying the sign. After sending her dad home, Greta found a good
spot to set up her sign and sat down on her cushion with her flyers by her side.
She asked a passer-by to take a photo of her and posted
it on her Twitter account. Even though she only had
around twenty followers, it was retweeted dozens of
times. Within a few days she was being interviewed by
reporters, other kids had joined her, and she was being
supported by Greenpeace activists and others. Greta's
life would never be the same again.
In December 2018, just a few months after starting her strike, Greta was invited to speak at
the United Nations COP24 Climate Change Conference in Poland.
