Greta Thunberg mocks world leaders in blah, blah, blah speech BBC News
The Swedish climate activist, Greta Thunberg, used her speech at the Youth4Climate conference in Milan to mock the words of world leaders, including UK PM Boris Johnson. The 18yearold used soundbites from Mr Johnson, such as expensive bunny hugging and build back better, to highlight what she called the empty words and promises of politicians. Later in the speech, she urged people not to give up hope, saying that change is not only possible, but urgently necessary. Many countries have announced ambitious targets to reduce their emissions to tackle climate change. The UK, for example, has pledged to cut 78 of its emissions by 2035, from a 1990 baseline. But the government s current plans are projected to deliver less than a quarter of the cuts needed to meet the goal. Please subscribe HERE , GretaThunberg, ClimateChange, Environment, BBCNews
