Swedish teenage environmental activist who was selected by powerful interests to be the face of "climate change activism".

Greta Tintin Eleonora Ernman Thunberg is a Swedish environmental "climate change activist". In August 2018, aged 15, from the first day she held up a placard saying "School strike for climate", she received a wide audience on social media. She has been actively promoted by the WEF and commercially-controlled media since then and "celebrities and public figures played an essential role in amplifying [her] influence."

Official narrative

The World Economic Forum help her promote the idea of imminent climate disaster if the net zero agenda is not strictly adhered to.

Thunberg received blanket propaganda coverage from the Commercially-controlled media

Thunberg first became known for her activism in August 2018 when, at age 15, she began spending her school days outside the Swedish parliament to call for stronger action on global warming by holding up a sign saying (in Swedish) "School strike for climate". Soon, other students engaged in similar protests in their own communities. Together, they organised a school climate strike movement under the name Fridays for Future.

She has spoken both in public and to political leaders and assemblies, in which she urges immediate action to address what she describes as the climate crisis. At home, Thunberg convinced her parents to adopt several lifestyle choices to reduce their own carbon footprint, including giving up air travel and not eating meat.

In May 2020 CNN included her on an "expert" panel about COVID-19.

Thunberg was selected to receive center stage attention at the World Economic Forum 2020

On the occurrence of the deletion of this 2018 tweet in 2023, "fact checker" were brought in to explain away the circumstances.

In her own words, she was "diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome, OCD, and selective mutism."

Problems with offical narrative

The launch of the Greta Thunberg story had all the hallmarks of an organized PR-campaign to usher in a required consensus for the Paris Agreement, the Green New Deal and all climate-related policies and legislation written by the power elite – for the power elite.

On August 20, 2018 a tweet featuring a photo of "a Swedish girl" sitting on a sidewalk was released by the tech company, We Don’t Have Time, founded by its CEO Ingmar Rentzhog. Rentzhog’s tweet, via the We Don’t Have Time twitter account, was be the very first exposure of Thunberg's school strike. Tagged in Rentzhog’s "lonely girl" tweet were five twitter accounts: Greta Thunberg, Zero Hour (youth movement), Jamie Margolin (the teenage founder of Zero Hour), Al Gore’s Climate Reality Project, and the People’s Climate Strike twitter account (in the identical font and aesthetics as 350.org)

We Don’t Have Time reported on Greta’s strike on its first day, and in less than 24 hours its Facebook posts and tweets received over twenty thousand likes, shares and comments, followed by corporate media. As of the first week of the strike, at least six major daily newspapers, as well as Swedish and Danish national TV interviewed Thunberg. Two Swedish party leaders stopped by to talk to her as well.

International corporate media

In May 2019, Thunberg was featured on the cover of Time magazine, which named her a "next generation leader" and noted that many see her as a role model. Thunberg and the school strike movement were also featured in a 30-minute Vice magazine documentary titled Make the World Greta Again. Some media have described her impact on the world stage as the "Greta Thunberg effect". Thunberg has been the recipient of numerous honors and awards, including fellowship of the Royal Scottish Geographical Society, has been named as one of the 100 most influential people of 2019 by Time magazine, and has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. In September 2019, she addressed the UN Climate Action Summit in New York.

2019 Atlantic crossing

Her crossing of the Atlantic has been touted as a 100% zero carbon emission journey and much of it in the commercially-controlled media was spin and omission to make it look like that, but in reality it was very much the opposite.

Exploitation

In 2019, Vladimir Putin suggested that Greta was being manipulated.
