Because young people are the future.
Our 16-year-old lord and savior Greta Thunberg has just been named TIME’s 2019 Person of the Year for her amazing work traveling the world and spreading the word about the effects of climate change and how to prevent them. Although this is a huge honor, I’m sure Thunberg isn’t too excited about the amount of paper that’s going to be used to put her face on TIME’s cover.
ADVERTISEMENT Of course, this not being the first time Trump has harassed her on Twitter, Thunberg knew how to respond to it: by changing her Twitter bio. This time, she described herself as “a teenager working on her anger management problem. Currently chilling and watching a good old fashioned movie with a friend.” If this was 2011, I would expect a “Text me” at the end of that, but we can’t have everything.
