After more than four million people went on strike around the world to demand transformative climate action, Greta Thunberg, the 16-year-old Swedish climate activist, told world leaders how dare they.
In an emotional speech at the UN Climate Action Summit in New York on Monday, she said they would not forgive the world leaders "if you choose to fail us".
She and 15 other children later filed a complaint against five countries over the climate crisis.
In a passionate speech to world leaders, accusing them of betraying her generation by failing to act on climate change, Thunberg said: "We will not let you get away with this."
"And if you choose to fail us I say we will never forgive you," she said.
"Right here, right now is where we draw the line. The world is waking up. And change is coming, whether you like it or not."
Directly after her speech she, with 15 other children, delivered an official complaint on the climate crisis' impact on youth to the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child.
