And in Greta style, she's hitching a ride on a sailboat with two Australian YouTubers.
Doyle RiceSwedish teen climate activist Greta Thunberg is heading back across the Atlantic Ocean. She's hitching a ride on a sailboat with Australian YouTubers after nearly three eventful months spreading her climate message across North America.
In August, the teen activist sailed across the Atlantic Ocean to the United States on a zero emissions sailboat. She has been a vocal critic of flying because it contributes to the greenhouse gas emissions that accelerate global warming.Greta scolds the United Nations: 'I shouldn't be up here' She also testified before the U.S. Congress in September before a joint hearing of two House committees on the global climate crisis.Instead of planning a lengthy opening statement to start the hearing, Thunberg simply offered a copy of the 2018 global warming report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change that emphasizes the dire threat that human-caused global warming poses, along with the climate and economic impacts.
"We teenagers and children shouldn't have to take the responsibility but right now the world leaders keep acting like children and someone needs to be the adult in the room," Thunberg said."The world is waking up. We are the change and change is coming whether they like it or not."While in Canada, Thunberg participated in climate protests in Montreal, Edmonton and Vancouver.
