17-year-old climate activist Greta Thunberg went on a Zoom call interview with The Late Show’s Stephen Colbert and spoke about various issues from her ongoing school strike, her open letter to world leaders, as well as the iconic photo of her fiercely glaring at Donald Trump during the UN Climate Summit in September 2019.
Colbert asked Thunberg how she felt about world leaders who have used social media to tease and silence her activism on climate change, to which she responded, “In one way, it’s hilarious, as it shows they have nowhere left to go.”
“It also shows that we are actually having an impact because there must be a reason why they're trying to silence us,” she added.
Thunberg was also asked about the famous photo of herself where she was seen staring intently at Trump last year. Thunberg gave a blunt response, allowing the photo to speak for itself.
