Greta Thunberg on COPs

 “The Cops are mainly used as an opportunity for leaders and people in power to get attention, using many different kinds of greenwashing,” she said.

The Cop conferences, she added, “are not really meant to change the whole system”, but instead encourage gradual progress.

“So as it is, the Cops are not really working, unless of course we use them as an opportunity to mobilise.”

 Thunberg called for more people to get involved in climate activism, saying the time had come for “drastic changes” to the status quo.

“In order to change things, we need everyone – we need billions of activists,” she said.
