Greta Thunberg the 16-year-old climate activist with Asberger has made the long train journey from Stockholm to Davos to speak to the worlds economic elite who are flying in by approximately 1500 private jets from all parts of the world for the yearly World Economic Forum. She is not shy to tell the participants straight to their face that she thinks they are to blame for climate change as they have made huge amounts of money from decisions on the cost of our planets environmental boundaries. Let us hope it gives them something to reflect upon.

On the Scandinavian talk show, Skavlan, Greta openly talks about having Asberger and how she has turned this diagnosis into advantage after first experiencing depression. To people with Asberger, she explains the world is either black or white, there are not many nuances, and when it comes to being a climate change activist that has become a strength for her.
