Greta Thunberg: Swedish climate activist goes back to school

"It feels great to finally be back at school!" Greta Thunberg is back in the classroom after a year off.

The Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg (17) has returned to school after a year off. It feels great to be "finally back to school!" Wrote the 17-year-old on Instagram. She also posted a photo of herself with a school bag on her bike.

After the end of her school year in June 2019, the young Swede traveled around the world, including crossing the Atlantic in a sailing boat. She wanted to take part in the UN climate conference that was to take place in Santiago de Chile. The event was moved to Madrid at short notice due to unrest in Chile, so Thunberg sailed back to Europe from the USA. In the USA, she previously spoke to the United Nations, met the former US President Barack Obama (59) and stars like Arnold Schwarzenegger (73) and Leonardo DiCaprio (45).
