‘Grown-ups Have Failed Us’
Conversation: Greta Thunberg
MAUREEN NANDINI MITRA
WINTER 2019
Greta Thunberg is a troublemaker. A rabble rouser. A movement builder. She’s also all of 15 years old. Thunberg might look small for her age, but this pigtailed teenager from Stockholm has been packing quite a punch on the international arena ever since she went on strike for about three weeks leading up to Sweden’s September 9 elections by refusing to attend school. Instead, she parked herself outside the Swedish parliament to protest her country’s inadequate action on climate change, handing out leaflets to passersby that said: “I’m doing this because you adults are shitting on my future.”

“Why should we be studying for a future that soon will be no more and when no one is doing anything to save that future?” Thunberg asks, in a widely circulated letter explaining her action.
Thunberg first heard the words “climate change” when she was eight and it didn’t take her too long to figure out how serious the situation was and how little was actually being done to address it. At first, she started with making changes at home, convincing her family members to learn more about the issue and make major lifestyle changes in order to cut their carbon footprint. Her mother – the well-known opera singer Malena Ernman – gave up her international career in 2015 because of aviation’s huge carbon footprint. But over the next few years, Thunberg came to the conclusion that making personal lifestyle changes wasn’t enough and that developed nations, Sweden included, needed to do more to address the climate problem. Hence her solo protest outside the corridors of power. “Why should we be studying for a future that soon will be no more and when no one is doing anything to save that future?” she asks, in a widely circulated letter explaining her action.
Once the elections were over, Thunberg returned to school for four days a week but is usually back at her protest spot on Fridays. Her dogged action has struck a chord in Sweden, which has just suffered through heatwaves and wildfires during its hottest summer in 262 years. Many Swedes, including some of her friends and school teachers, have joined her at her post from time to time. News of her campaign has reverberated across the world as well, making international headlines and even inspiring hundreds of high-schoolers in Australia to start planning similar “school strikes.” She’s also been invited to speak at climate events in Finland and London. (She drove to these, of course!)
In early November, Thunberg was nominated for the Children’s Climate Prize by Swedish renewable energy company Telge Energi, but in true Thunberg style, she declined the nomination, writing that she was honored but “the idea that all the finalists are to be flown in from all over the world, to be a part of a ceremony, has no connection with reality.”
When I spoke with Thunberg over Skype recently, she called on all young people across the world to join the #FridayForFuture movement and push their governments to take more urgent action on climate change. “The grown-ups,” she says, “have failed us.”
How did you first learn about climate change?
It was in school when they said save water and turn off the lights, don’t throw away food and paper, and so on, and I asked why. And they said because there’s something called global warming and climate change caused by humans, by our way of living.
How did you come to be so concerned about climate change?
I am a person who doesn’t like it when people say something and do something else. And I found that was the case with the climate issue, because they keep saying that it is an existential threat but do very little about it.
I thought it was very weird because if the climate crisis was as serious as it was then people would be talking about it all the time. It would be our top priority and you would never hear about anything else. And then I started reading about it and … the more I read it the more I realized how urgent this issue was.
Were any of your classmates as concerned about it as you were?
No.
What did they think when you started talking to them about it?
Nothing.
Did they think it was strange?
(Snorts) I have always been a little bit different. So yeah, I think so.
Is there any specific thing about the impacts of climate change that you’re most worried about?
Every one of them, but I think specifically that we might soon, if we haven’t already, reach a tipping point and then there’s no going back. Then it doesn’t matter what we do. That is scary.
