Greta Thunberg's protest began with a tweet from @GretaThunberg: \"Vi barn gör ju oftast inte som ni säger åt oss att göra, vi gör som ni gör. Och eftersom ni vuxna skiter i min framtid, så gör jag det med. Jag skolstrejkar för klimatet fram till valdagen.\" Which, translated in English, reads: \"We children usually don't do as you tell us to do, we do as you do. And if you adults don't care about my future, neither do I. I will school strike for the climate until election day.\" In one Greta Thunberg speech, she says, \"We have come here to let you know that change is coming, whether you like it or not. The real power belongs to the people.\" In this Greta Thunberg interview, One Small Step host Lucy Biggers chats with the young activist to discuss Thunberg's experience starting a global environmental movement and to talk about what other ways we can all work towards combating climate change as we move forward into the future. #ClimateChange #Activism #Environment #OneSmallStep Connect with NowThis » Subscribe to NowThis News » Like us on Facebook » Tweet us on Twitter » Follow us on Instagram » Find us on Snapchat Discover What happens to everything we use after we throw it away?
