Greta Thunberg is a Swedish climate youth activist who sparked an international

movement to fight climate change beginning in 2018. With the simple message "School
strike for climate" handwritten on poster board, Thunberg began skipping school on
Fridays and protesting outside the Swedish Parliament. Thanks to social media, her
actions have spread and influenced millions of young people all over the world to
organize and protest. Thunberg has also traveled the world, meeting with global leaders
and speaking at assemblies to demand climate solutions and a recommitment to the
Paris Agreement. Recently diagnosed with Asperger's, the activist has publicly shared
her views on her disorder, referring to it as her "superpower." Thunberg was nominated
for the Nobel Peace Prize in March 2019, and a few months later she became the
youngest individual ever to be honored as Time's Person of the Year.

Four years without Big Ben’s bongs? It can’t be right, says UK PM May

LONDON (Reuters) - Prime Minister Theresa May said on Wednesday it could not be
right for “Big Ben”, the bell in the British parliament’s clock tower whose bongs
(1)_______, to fall silent for four years during renovations.
May joined other politicians who have protested at the news that the great bell, which
has rung every hour for most of the past 157 years, would cease its bongs to ensure the
safety of workers carrying out renovations on the tower.
“Of course we want to ensure that people are safe at work, but it can’t be right for Big
Ben to be silent for four years,” May told reporters.
“I hope that the Speaker (of the House of Commons) ... will urgently look into this and
ensure that we can hear Big Ben through those four years.”
Big Ben’s bongs, which are heard marking the start of some of the BBC’s flagship
news bulletins, are part of the soundtrack of daily life in the British capital and beyond.
Officially known as the Elizabeth Tower, the clock tower that houses Big Ben is
believed to be the most photographed building in the United Kingdom. May’s
comments were more restrained than those of her Brexit minister, David Davis, who
said on Tuesday that (2)_____.
Another Conservative politician, member of parliament Nigel Evans, suggested earlier
on Wednesday that the bongs could be switched back on every evening when the
workers carrying out the renovations of the clock tower finished for the day.
Steve Jaggs, parliament’s Keeper of the Great Clock, had announced this week that Big
Ben would stop its regular chimes at midday (1100 GMT) on Monday, Aug. 21, inviting
members of the public to gather nearby to hear the final bongs.
The bell will still toll for important (3)_____ but will otherwise remain silent until 2021.
