I AM GRETA

The schoolgirl who took on the world

Before 2018, Greta Thunberg (left) was simply a Swedish schoolgirl with an interest in environmental issues. But that all changed when she went on strike from school in an effort to raise awareness of climate issues, inspiring others to do the same. Now 18, Thunberg has received international recognition for her efforts to change the world by confronting politicians and talking candidly about what we can all do to make a difference. This documentary follows her rise to prominence. BBC iPlayer, from today
