    Default Greta Thunberg donates prize money to new foundation

    Teen climate activist Greta Thunberg is using her prize money from an award known as the alternative Nobel to help set up a non-profit organization in her name "to promote ecological and social sustainability."

    Thunberg, 17, who won the Right Livelihood Award in December, will use the 1 million Swedish crown ($100,000) prize to establish the Greta Thunberg Foundation in Sweden.

    The Swedish teenager said in January that she was establishing a foundation to handle the money she gets from book royalties, donations and prizes.

    "We are convinced that Thunberg's new foundation will have a great impact and empower much-needed change," Ole von Uexkuell, executive director of the Sweden-based Right Livelihood Foundation, said in a statement on Thursday.

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    So, she's established "a foundation to handle the money she gets from book royalties, donations and prizes."
    Quite the little capitalist. Must have taken non-profit foundation lessons from Hillbag.
    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    A stark contrast with Donald Trump who was fined for misusing his charity to advance his own personal interests.

    "A judge ordered President Trump to pay $2 million to charities as a fine for misusing his own charitable foundation to further his political and business interests."

    I suspect they're as intimidated by her as they were by Algore. Not at all. Algore was kind of a joke and as time went on he became a joke even to his cause. Greta is more someone to pity .
