Greta Thunberg gives speech to 7 year old cobalt miners in DRC
"Climate change has ruined my childhood!" Greta Thunberg shouts during her speech to 7 year old child miners in the Congo.
Greta Thunberg made a surprise appearance at an unregulated cobalt mine in the Democratic Republic of Congo on Wednesday. The 20 year old climate activist spent over an hour speaking about climate change and it's impact on the planet. The audience, which consisted mainly of 7 year old child miners, seemed captivated by Greta's speech.
"The children were humbeled that Greta took time out of her busy schedule of travelling all over the world, to talk to them about how climate change has completely ruined her life and stolen her childhood. Luckily the children aren't provided any personal protective equipment, so we were able to see them smiling at Greta as they choked on cobalt dust." stated a spokesperson for Ms.Thunberg.
After her speech, Greta visited the local village where the child miners reside. "The river running through the village was contaminated by discharged waste from a mineral processing plant, which means they have no clean drinking water. It was awful, I was so thirsty but luckily I had clean, bottled water on the jet" stated Greta.
