Greta Thunberg UNFAZED During Arrest Following Oil Protest In London

Greta Thunberg continues to prove she is not afraid to fight for the environment even when the law is against her!

The environmental activist took the world by storm in 2018 at 15 when she held the first "School Strike for Climate" outside the Swedish parliament. Five years later, the Stockholm native remains steadfast in her mission to save our planet and recently faced off with authorities in London without breaking a sweat.

The Swedish activist joined other aggrieved protesters outside the InterContinental Hotel on Park Lane, which hosted an oil industry summit. However, the 20-year-old's mission to influence the minds of these corporate bodies did not go as planned.

In a viral footage of her arrest shared on YouTube, the climate change advocate was seen rocking a badge with the slogan "Oily Money Out." Thunberg remained calm despite being flanked on both sides by police officers, who spoke to the young activist.

Although their conversation was inaudible, the media personality looked unfazed by the situation, showing zero resistance when being led to the police van. Other protesters could be heard screaming "Well done" and "Thank you, Greta" alongside other words of encouragement while authorities tried to keep the crowd away from the vehicle.

Thunberg flashed her supporters a warm smile, proving her will to fight against environmental destruction would not be broken by her arrest. Before cops rained on the Stockholm native's parade, she bravely stood on a podium outside the InterContinental Hotel, calling oil executives to change their detrimental practices. In the climate activist's words:

"Behind these closed doors at the oil and money conference, spineless politicians are making deals and compromises with lobbyists from destructive industries, the fossil fuel industry."

"People all over the world are suffering and dying from the consequences of the climate crisis caused by these industries who we allow to meet with our politicians and have privileged access to," Thunberg claimed, stressing the dire state of the world.

"The world is drowning in fossil fuels. Our hopes and dreams and lives are being washed away by a flood of greenwashing and lies. It has been clear for decades that the fossil fuel industries were well aware of the consequences of their business models, and yet, they have done nothing," the 20-year-old lamented.

According to the environmental advocate, the oil industries have done the opposite over the years by delaying, distracting, and denying the causes of the climate crisis. Additionally, these companies "spread doubts about their own engagement in it."

As stated, the Nobel Peace Prize nominee's name took over the world in 2018 following her "School Strike for Climate" movement. The then 15-year-old activist held a solo protest outside the Swedish parliament to call for more action against climate change.

To Thunberg's surprise, her move sparked the involvement of more students in the fight against climate change. These children skipped school every Friday to protest, labeling their movement “Fridays for Future.” The protest gained millions of participants, making Thunberg an international name.

Over the years, the Stockholm native's activism has earned her numerous recognitions, including being named Time Magazine’s Person of the Year in 2019. She has also received three nominations for a Nobel Peace Prize.

One of her most remarkable feats might be the arrest of the infamous misogynist Andrew Tate. In 2022, during a heated exchange between the duo on social media, the former professional kickboxer unwittingly shared a video of himself eating pizza and smoking.

However, his clapback at Thunberg's criticisms of his car emissions helped the Romanian police discover his location in their country. Following the media personality's arrest, the Stockholm native fired back: "This is what happens when you don’t recycle your pizza boxes."
