To have a chance of minimizing further irreparable damage, we have to choose: either we safeguard living conditions for all future generations, or we let a few very fortunate people maintain their constant, destructive search to maximize immediate profits.

This is the biggest story in the world, and it must be spoken as far and wide as our voices can carry and much further still. Thank you for your support!
I will not earn money from this book as my copyright belongs to the Greta Thunberg Foundation, so all royalties go to charity.

It is getting even more impossible to ignore the climate crisis. The fact that people in power still somehow live in denial, and actively move in the wrong direction, will eventually be seen for and understood as the unprecedented betrayal it is. It is just a matter of time. twitter.com/IPCC_CH/status…

Today, after yesterday's #IPCC report, everything is back to normal – as always. We continue to ignore the climate crisis as if nothing happened. Our societies are still in denial, and those in power go on with their never ending quests to maximise profits. We cannot afford this.

Biomass burning is harmful to the climate, environment and human rights. In this existential crisis, we cannot afford the EU to further fuel the flames. #StopFakeRenewables

We need you to hold the line on no-go zones and forest biomass. Every safeguarded ecosystem and intact carbon storage matter. Stop incentivising expansion and burning, stop fake climate solutions! #ForestsAreNotRenewable
