'Get organized and get everyone to vote': Greta Thunberg endorses Biden

Source: Washington Examiner

Teenage climate change activist Greta Thunberg has thrown her support behind Joe Biden.

Thunberg, 17, made the presidential endorsement on Saturday morning. She said that while she doesn’t like to get involved in party politics, Biden is the best choice to protect the climate.

“I never engage in party politics. But the upcoming US elections is above and beyond all that. From a climate perspective, it’s very far from enough and many of you of course supported other candidates. But, I mean…you know…damn! Just get organized and get everyone to vote #Biden,” the Swedish environmentalist said.

She made the endorsement by quote-tweeting an article by the Scientific American, which broke 175 years of tradition by endorsing a presidential candidate, Biden, for the first time.

Especially regarding Climate Change.

Nothing will get done unless one engages,deals with, and promises to try to influence politicians of every nation.

Good Luck and thanks for working so hard for this issue Greta.
