This week saw a fresh wave of global climate protests including in Canada, where thousands took to the streets in cities across the country. Among those taking part in the rally in Montreal, were the Canadian prime minister and teen activist Greta Thunberg. At a meeting between the two, she urged Justin Trudeau to do more to save the planet.

On Monday, Thunberg delivered an impassioned address to the UN Climate Action Summit. The Swedish campaigner rebuked world leaders for failing to tackle the destruction of the biosphere. Thunberg also scowled at Donald Trump when they almost crossed paths. But the US President paid zero attention to the headline-grabbing climate activist. She then left the room accompanied by security guards – while Trump went to attend a meeting on religious freedom.

While she’s been widely praised for her impassioned address, there are those who say she’s leading a ‘cult’ for the younger generation. Murad Gazdiev looks at the thin line between ‘activism’ and ‘fanaticism.’
