Swedish activist Greta Thunberg criticized the environmental policy of United States President Joe Biden. She expressed her opinion in an interview with the American television channel MSNBC.
Thunberg said the US authorities are treating climate change as another political issue, and not as a problem. She believes that the Biden administration is not doing enough to take care of the environment and is dealing with this issue more like a political issue rather than a global crisis.
“Treat the climate crisis like a crisis,” she urged.
In February, it became known that the United States had officially returned to the Paris Climate Agreement. The Biden government has pledged to drastically cut emissions in the coming years. The country was previously withdrawn from the agreement by former head of state Donald Trump.
In October, Thunberg urged Americans to vote for Biden in the US presidential election. The 17-year-old activist stressed that she has never been involved in politics, but the upcoming US elections are “above all this.”
