(Via the DailyDot)

I Am Greta shows how Greta Thunberg has become the popular kid, but in a much different capacity. She’s still a teenager, no doubt dealing with the insecurity that comes with that. In one scene, she worries people are “tired” of her. Elsewhere, her worried father meets up with a security expert after she starts getting death threats.

The film only scratches the surface of the horrific and hateful comments she’s endured, for simply trying to get people to care about the dying planet. While it ends on a more uplifting note, it’s still a damning document of inaction. As a passive viewer, does that extend to us?
