Climate activist Greta Thunberg is taking matters into her own hands by applying for a trademark for her name and the Fridays For Future climate crisis movement she created.

The 17-year-old said her"name and the #FridaysForFuture movement are constantly being used for commercial purposes without any consent whatsoever," according to an Instagram post Wednesday. Thunberg's environmental activism gained recognition worldwide when she started a school strike for the climate outside Swedish parliament in August 2018.

With her trademark, she wrote that she plans on taking the necessary legal action against people or corporations that try to use her name and the Fridays For Future name for causes that don't align with what the global movement stands for.The teenager said this has happened in marketing with products being sold and people collecting money in her and the movement's name.

Awesome!!!!

Like The Godfather of climate change, Al Gore, Greta is ready to cash in on climate...

She is so fake,

why? Aren't we all going to be dead in 12 years?

Sywert You nutcases. She is already expose!!!!!! Climate change the biggest lie ever. It is all about Money for the Elite!

Put this kid in school

Good for her homeschool arse

Is it just me or does she look like she could be Putins daughter in that pic.

'How dare you use my name without paying royalty?!'- Greta

ohhh greta dont want to share her super power:) hahahaha disgusting person

She went full Gretard.

Sksksksk save the turtles

She’s about to drop her new rap album.

What if someone else out there is named Greta Thunberg?

True colors showing. Yike$!

Oh most probably her showbiz/celebrity parents, relatives created such under the guidance of a top notch public relations company and lawyers so they can all make money

Makes me want to gag!

Logical, if you control the name legally you control the message.

All these fragile people feeling threatened by a girl who is only reminding us of what we should already have learned in school; climate change and crisis are real, and science is real, not your MAGA Cult slogans and deeply disturbed senses of reality.

Nothing says environmental activism like branding yourself and protecting your name with a corporate and trademark!

Go back to school already!

Give her a mask and go to China. They need her there.

Climate Change Dance Mix

There you go. Money. Power. That's what her advocacy is about.

That SHE CREATED... lol!

Such greed. Her unemployed parents have made millions using their autistic kid. Now these scoundrels want to corner the market.

I cant wait for the nickname people will invent...

I knew she would monetize herself soon, less than a year. Good job Greta

Wow,arrogance has shown it's true face.

And there it is folks, it’s ALL ABOUT THE MONEY!!! Not like there was ever any doubt.

Good

I suppose if anyone is going to cash in massively ...

There is already a trademark for insanity:

Can you one time show her picking up a piece of trash. She's on a yacht, hotel, lecturing, but not once has she coordinated a clean up or effort to suggest a project all people can agree with. Till then, FAKE CLIMATE CHANGE

She should go back to school. Doesn’t seem too smart. But has embraced capitalistic views.

She's racist!! She cropped out a Ugandan activist from her photo!!

And she came up with the idea herself...right?

Poor kid

Of course. St.Greta the Martyr.

Cash in on it Greta! Who needs an education when you can be the next Al Gore!!!

Imagine Mother Theresa did the same. You know, the first she thought of when she tried to help the poor was to register a trademark.

Nice! Get her business going and make some money 👍🏾

How many trees are killed to make the protest signs to save the trees?

Fixed it!!!!! 'Greta Thunberg's dad is taking matters into his own hands by applying for a trademark for his daughter's name and the Fridays For Future climate crisis movement he created.'

Yeh because everyone wants to use her name FullOfIt

Lol. Money maker. I knee her family wanted something but it ain’t public good. It’s greed. Busted. Greta you should be ashamed of your parents.

Go to China...now please lol 😷

For first, she must finished a school

Climate scientists just declared there was no emergency to tackle the climate crisis Check Zeke Hausfather profile. Everything will be fine all activists can go back to school or university... We can mitigate (please note updated climate models all state we will die soon)

What a brat

Global warming can’t be real, she wearing a coat, scarf, and hat?

Ahh... Shame that she's so shallow I suppose in her little mind it will help the environment.

Sad to see a little girl become a puppet
