15-year-old Greta Thunberg from Sweden is setting higher standards for us all. She is a climate activist who has garnered immense praise for her strong stance on climate change. She's vocal in criticising policymakers for paying a mere lip service in addressing this plaguing issue. She has been championing the cause asking powerful world leaders to take seriously the impending consequences of climate change and do something about it. She has now urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to take action.
"Dear Mr Modi, you need to take action now against the climate crisis, not just talking about it because if you keep going on like this, doing business as usual, and just talking about and bragging about the little victories, you are going to fail. And if you fail, you are going to be seen as one of the worst villains in human history in the future. And you don't want that," she said in a video shared by Brut India.

In December last year, she blasted world leaders at the UN Climate Summit.
"You are not mature enough to tell it like is," she said at a UN climate summit in Poland that ended Sunday. "Even that burden you leave to us children."

"Our biosphere is being sacrificed so rich people in countries like mine can live in luxury. It's the suffering of the many which pay for the luxuries of the few," she went on to add. "You say you love your children above all else, and yet you're stealing their future before their very eyes."
She also grabbed headlines earlier for ditching school to go on strike for two weeks, just before Sweden's general elections.
Following the country's hottest summer ever, she sat in silent protest on the pavement outside the parliament building in Stockholm, with placards and leaflets that read, "I am doing this because you adults are shitting on my future."
