Is Greta Thunberg different now? Ever since taking action for the people of Palestine she has been called a terrorist, an anti-semite, and someone who left climate justice behind.

As world leaders meet for the 30th time for the UN Climate Summit, this year in Brazil, Francesca looks at how the young Thunberg changed the world six years ago at COP24. Yet now that she’s turned her attention to the global wound that is the genocide in Gaza, she is being told she has become “political.” Sure, Jan.

What’s political is that countries DO NOT HAVE TO REPORT the emissions that stem from their military activity. That’s right. All the wars, conflicts, military exercises with heavy aircraft and artillery are not factored in when it comes time to calculate whether countries are in fact reducing greenhouse gas emissions. And military spending is increasing worldwide. Will leaders actually take responsibility for the climate chaos their aggression creates?

Not only are countries like Israel and the United States murdering Palestinians, but they are making Palestinian land unlivable, destroying the soil and water with chemical weapons. Greta consistently makes these links as part of the reason she fights for Palestine. So no, Greta Thunberg has not changed, she’s doubled down.
