In a social media post this week, Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg announced to followers that she’d applied to trademark her name and the words on the sign that she carries during strikes: Skolstrejk for klimatet, or school strike for climate in Swedish.

The 17-year-old catapulted to worldwide recognition last year, just two years after she began her now-famous climate strikes outside of the Swedish parliament. After inspiring classmates, teachers and parents to join her, the strikes became a weekly commitment.

Fridays For Future grew to 17,000 participants in 24 countries by November 2018. Thunberg began receiving invitations to speak at climate conferences around Europe and was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize last spring. In August 2019, Thunberg sailed from the U.K. to New York to speak at the United Nations Climate Summit. In December, she was named Time Magazine’s Person of the Year.

This is probably so horrid politicians can’t use and abuse her name. Imagine republicans in the US naming a product after her. Who knows. This prevents that.

Okay, this makes a lot of sense. I feel like its wrong because there are gonna be at least another woman with the same name but she is a very easy target for the  right wing doing something like what you said.

It's actually a smart move because it gives her legal powers against use of her image and story.  Companies that may be unethical could be using her image and story out of context to sell their products and without a trademark she can't act with as much strength.  Other reasons too.

Okay I’m really starting to wonder how much of what we see of Greta is Mr., and/or Mrs. Thunberg. I mean have you seen her Twitter/insta? And this?
