Environmental superstar and one of the most lauded teenagers on planet Earth, Greta Thunberg, is known for fighting for what she believes in, no matter what criticism she might get.

Well, the 16-year-old climate change activist Greta from Sweden is making headlines once again, this time for showing that she’s got a great sense of humor and is able to turn other people’s criticism around and make it a strength. When the US President mocked her on Monday by sarcastically noting that she “seems like a very happy young girl looking forward to a bright and wonderful future,” Greta took that quote and proudly put it in her Twitter bio.

Trump’s criticism of the well-known teenager, who is the face of the climate justice movement, occurred several hours after her speech at the United Nations on Monday. There, Greta strongly criticized the world’s most powerful leaders for not doing enough to fight climate change, save the world and ensure a bright tomorrow for future generations.

Greta’s expression says it all, doesn’t it?

The teenager criticized world leaders

“I shouldn’t be up here. I should be back at school on the other side of the ocean,” Greta lambasted politicians. “Yet you all come to us young people for hope. How dare you! You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words.”

Greta’s speech at the UN was well-received by many who believed it conveyed the urgency of global warming, however, some people accused her of pretending to be outraged for better effect. The teenager’s critics previously called her a ‘guru of the Apocalypse,’ while others rose to defend her, highlighting the fact that her goals are what’s best for the world.

The girl sailed to the UN summit across the Atlantic Ocean on a 60-foot (18-meter) long environmentally-friendly yacht, the Malizia II, with three other people, including her father Svente.
