#GretaThunberg :
"We are never going back to normal again because ‘normal’ was already a crisis.
What we refer to as normal is an extreme system built on the exploitation of people and the planet.
It is a system defined by colonialism, imperialism, oppression and genocide by the so-called global North to accumulate wealth that still shapes our current world order.
If economic growth is our only priority, then what we are experiencing now should be exactly what we should be expecting.”
