Greta Thunberg Wants Changes In Farming And Food Consumption

"The climate crisis, ecological crisis and health crisis they are all interlinked," Greta Thunberg said in a video posted on social media for international biodiversity day.

Climate campaigner Greta Thunberg launched an appeal on Saturday for a change in food production and consumption in the face of repeated crises threatening the world. "The climate crisis, ecological crisis and health crisis they are all interlinked," Thunberg said in a video posted on social media for international biodiversity day. "Millions have died from Covid 19, Zika, Ebola, West Nile fever, SARS, MERS, HIV-AIDS," as viruses jump from animals to humans, she added. "The way we farm and treat nature cutting down forests and destroying habitats, we are creating the perfect conditions for diseases to spill over from one animal to another -- and to us," the 18-year-old said.
