                from NO ONE IS TOO SMALL TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE
We can’t save the world by playing by the rules. Because the rules have to be changed. Everything needs to change.
And it has to start today.
Greta Thunberg
  In 2018, at the age of fifteen, Swedish schoolgirl Greta Thunberg went on strike from school to protest against her government’s inactivity on climate change. She inspired the world with her activism and is now a global leader. She has twice been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. When she addressed the United Nations, she expressed rage at adults who call her inspiring. “How dare you”, she said, to those who leave it to children to clear up the environmental mess.
I include these powerful words in the belief that we must all act now.
