Gretatude
There is a new phenomenon sweeping the globe that I'm calling Gretatude - immense gratitude for Greta Thunberg. Like millions of others around the world, I am grateful for the Climate Strike Youth for Climate movement that this 16-year old Swede has ignited. I am grateful for her honesty, bravery and clarity in exposing the false promises of politicians and fake rhetoric of business leaders who fail to act on our ecocidal climate emergency. I am grateful for her holding up a mirror to adults who say they love their children while doing nothing to protect their future. Do you share my Gretatude?
