Greta Thunberg on Friday took part in her last school strike, signing off after 251 weeks of demonstrations with a warning that 'the fight has only just begun.'
"Today, I graduate from school, which means I'll no longer be able to school strike for the climate," Thunberg said Friday on Twitter.
Just as she did in August of that year, Thunberg marked her final school strike by protesting with a handmade sign that read: "School strike for climate." "Today, I graduate from school, which means I'll no longer be able to school strike for the climate," Thunberg said on Twitter. "This is then the last school strike for me, so I guess I have to write something on this day."
