About this eBook

In twenty short books, Penguin brings you the classics of the environmental movement.

No One is Too Small to Make a Difference collects Greta Thunberg's history-making speeches, from addresses at climate rallies around the world audiences at the UN, the World Economic Forum, and the British Parliament.

Over the past 75 years, a new canon has emerged. As life on Earth has become irrevocably altered by humans, visionary thinkers around the world have raised their voices to defend the planet, and affirm our place at the heart of its restoration. Their words have endured through the decades, becoming the classics of a movement. Together, these books show the richness of environmental thought, and point the way to a fairer, saner, greener world.

Ratings and reviews

I love this little girl. I’d have her as President of Earth if I could. For me, she is on the same level as two old men I love: the Dalai Lama, and Pope Francis. This tiny book is an extract of quotes from her many public appearances. As such, there is considerable repetition: naturally, one tends to use the same words when facing a succession of audiences. However, this doesn’t detract from the message, which is inspiring, 200% scientifically accurate, and is a call to action all of us must follow. I have a friend who has bought many copies, to give away to people. He didn’t need to give me one: I’ve already bought it, if for no other reason than to support this wonderful young lady.

would suggest buying this book from a company that hasn't recently been revealed to be funding climate change denial groups (i.e. not Google)

Speaches and thought provoking writings from one of the worlds fastest rising environmental influencer.
