In 2018, a group of Swedish celebrities, including Ernman, publicly announced that they would stop flying. In that same year, Thunberg founded an event, " Fridays for Future. " In this event, Swedish students skipped school to protest climate change outside government offices. The movement quickly spread around the world, and Thunberg became a star at the age of 15. In 2019, Greta Thunberg took flygskam to the next level when she traveled by sailboat across the Atlantic Ocean to attend a United Nations meeting.
