16-Year-Old Climate Activist Greta Thunberg Is TIME's Person Of The Year

On Wednesday, on the Today show, TIME magazine editor Edward Felsenthal unveiled the TIME Person of the Year. And it is none other than sixteen-year-old Swedish climate change activist Greta Thunberg. Greta, who suffers from Asperger's, has risen as an important person in international climate crisis activism after she took time off school in 2018 to protest outside the Swedish Parliament, inspiring others to join her cause.

Each year, TIME magazine does a feature on some of the most influential people, groups, movements or even ideas that have made an impact in that year. Last year's cover had 'The Guardians', journalists who had been targeted for their work. In 2017, inspired by the #MeToo and #TimesUp movements, the cover had 'The Silence Breakers', a bunch of women who had stepped forward to report sexual assault.

This year, with the threat of climate change getting more real than ever, and her "How dare you?" speech from the UN Climate Summit in New York still ringing in our ears, Greta Thunberg's selection doesn't come as a surprise.

Other nominees shortlisted included The Whistleblower, the protestors in Hong Kong, Nancy Pelosi (Speaker of the United States House of Representatives and the first woman in American history to hold this position, she initiated the impeachment inquiry against Donald Trump in September 2019. ) and POTUS Donald Trump.

Two months ago, Thunberg also was one amongst four laureates honoured with the Right Livelihood Award 2019, also known as Sweden's Alternative Nobel Prize.

She is the reason the world will pay a new climate tax.  She is part of the globalization drama!
