STOCKHOLM -- Teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg is back where her campaign started - on her perch outside the Swedish Parliament.
After months of travelling by train and boat to different climate events in Europe and the United States, the 16-year-old Swede is raising her concerns back home, just as she did over a year ago when she skipped school to begin her climate protest, a stance that proved an inspiration to kids around the world.
Thunberg, who last week was named Person of the year by Time magazine, posted a photo of herself on social media Friday holding a sign with the accompanying text of "School strike week 70. Stockholm!"
Thunberg told Swedish news agency TT that she hoped to encourage more climate activists beyond those she has already inspired.
"Perhaps it also means that the word climate activist is no longer seen as a belligerent word and that more people are praised," she said.
Thunberg is back in Sweden after attending the UN climate change conference in Spain.
