In twenty short books, Penguin brings you the classics of the environmental movement.

No One is Too Small to Make a Difference collects Greta Thunberg's history-making speeches, from addresses at climate rallies around the world audiences at the UN, the World Economic Forum, and the British Parliament.

Over the past 75 years, a new canon has emerged. As life on Earth has become irrevocably altered by humans, visionary thinkers around the world have raised their voices to defend the planet, and affirm our place at the heart of its restoration. Their words have endured through the decades, becoming the classics of a movement. Together, these books show the richness of environmental thought, and point the way to a fairer, saner, greener world.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring for us small people
Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2020

If all if us believed that we could make a difference, then all the small differences that we each make would add up to the global change we need. This selection of speeches written by Greta is inspiring. She has a amazing way of saying exactly what she thinks, and unlike many politicians, she doesn't pander to special interests, no matter how powerful they are.

Our culture is beholden to fossil fuels. As Greta says, reducing emissions isn't enough, offsetting emissions isn't enough, creative accounting around carbon budgets isn't enough, pledging to do something in the future and carrying on business as usual isn't enough, saying the right things with no action isn't enough.

We need zero emissions, and we need to start right now.

5.0 out of 5 stars Read/listen, then act
Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2019

Greta is an awesome young person. I saw her on the Daily Show last week and she impressed me even more. This book contains mostly brief speeches she has given over the last year. The book is short and there is some repetition, so it is a quick read. As for the repetition, she could well say what Rev. Gordon Cosby once said--he gave the same sermon two weeks in a row, so a congregant asked if he had had a busy week and he replied, No, but no one acted on the sermon last week, so I wanted to give it another try. Her message is simple and so it makes sense to repeat it until we hear and act. She occasionally inserts asides such as (p. 61) "Did you hear what I just said? Is my English okay? Is the microphone on? Because I'm beginning to wonder." She has great responses to questions, such as, Shouldn't you be in school learning, instead of striking? (pp. 11-2): "Why should I be studying for a future that soon will be no more, when no one is doing anything whatsoever to save that future? And what is the point of learning facts within the school system when the most important facts given by the finest science of that same school system clearly mean nothing to our politicians and our society?" Greta has an ability to focus that is unsurpassed. Read or listen to her, and act.

This small compilation of the Africa's speeches gives a good idea of her positions at this time. And it provides insight on her personal development as an an environmental activist. Worth reading.

I love Greta, and she's making a difference. A great short read of her public speeches. A wonderful conversation starter for our homeschool talk about climate change, civic service, and our role.

Inspiring version of her speeches... Great to get her voice out there. Time to act is NOW! She is a great example of doing positive things like reducing her carbon footprint by sailing and not accepting monitary awards... Recommended.

This short book is a collection of Greta's incredible speeches. She has the ability to look at the state of our world due to climate change and talk about it clearly and very directly. This is exactly what we need, since the vast majority of our leaders have reacted with denial and ignorance.

I like that they put Greta’s essays together and the price is so reasonable. I think it’s a great way to share vital information about our climate and makes a nice gift also to help educate others.

2.0 out of 5 stars Thunberg lacks science and life experience to be credible
Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2019
Verified Purchase
Greta Thunberg is a talented public speaker and writer, but she lacks a knowledge of science, and in particular meteorology and climate. Her speeches, reproduced in the book, are filled with hype and misinformation copied from other global warming alarmists. Greta is not old enough to remember the state of the climate more than a decade ago. She appears to have either not read any history, or chooses to ignore history. She is the world leader of a cult/faith that could easily have a profound affect on her followers, including the possibility of a sharp rise in teen suicide.
Her book is well-written from a literary point of view, but it woefully short on factual science. I recommend that all anthropogenic global warming skeptics should read this book. It will be their best piece of armory in the battle against irrational climate alarmism.

What Greta is urging us to do is action. This coronavirus can and should be our savior. What we have not been able to understand by yourself, nature bring it as a gift. Yes it bring the opportunity to reshape the world to face that next reality. Economy will be brought to halt with this pandemic. It is the perfect moment to start reshaping the way it has to be from now on. A world that accept the reality of a small and fragile earth with ecosystem that we have to integrate in our decision making process. No way Humanity can accept a new start going in the same deadly direction we have taken during the last 75 years.

5.0 out of 5 stars Vergonha de ser eu
Reviewed in Brazil on December 14, 2019

Fiz a opção em ler em inglês por causa da capa. Não sei se o livros que estão saindo no Brasil são traduções dessa versão. Pode ser lido em 15 minutos. O ativismo da Greta me fez ter vergonha dos meus atos, uma mulher adulta de 40 anos. Não consegui ser forte o suficiente para levar o veganismo adiante, e não deixaria de andar de avião para participar de um retiro de yoga. Esse livro me fez perceber como estou ultrapassada. Quando uma adolescente incomoda ao ponto de ser criticada por grupos antagônicos, atenção, ela pode e está certa. Recomendo a leitura do livro novo da Eliane Brum, lançado agora no fim de 2019, sobre a situação do Brasil nos últimos anos. São leituras complementares, assim como o pequeno grande livro do Ailton Krenak.

Lo compré para entender mejor todo el movimiento que se estaba generando respecto al calentamiento global y he de decir que no defrauda. El libro consiste en una recopilación (en inglés) de varios discursos de Greta Thunberg. Es fácil de entender y lo recomendaría a todo aquel que esté interesado en aprender sobre el calentamiento global como en conocer mejor a esta chica, además de aprender determinadas palabras técnicas en inglés. El libro es pequeñito, así que se puede llevar a cualquier sitio.

Parce que l'urgence climatique est au coeur de bien des débats, ce livre est à mon sens à lire comme un témoignage de cette jeunesse qui en saisit l'importance.
