Greta Thurnberg BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Greta Thunberg is making headlines again with a whirlwind of activism and high-profile initiatives that underscore her enduring influence on both the climate movement and global humanitarian affairs. Just days ago, according to Catalan News, she was confirmed as a leading participant in the largest humanitarian mission to Gaza set to depart from Barcelona on August 31, joining artists and activists on the Global Sumud Flotilla 2025 effort—an action described as the biggest of its kind since the blockade of the Gaza Strip was implemented. With over 28000 registered participants, hundreds are set to sail and Greta’s inclusion signals not just her commitment to climate but to broader human rights issues. Organizers have kept port and ship details under wraps for security, but have said there will be specially dedicated vessels, including one crewed only by women and another by US Army veterans, projecting both symbolic and practical significance in the international response to Gaza.

Thunberg’s activism in Norway has also been relentless. As reported by The Daily Star, she and more than 100 climate advocates blocked Oslo’s main avenue and a major bank branch to demand the shuttering of Norway’s oil industry—part of a dramatic 36-hour protest at the Mongstad oil refinery, the country’s largest. With support from Extinction Rebellion and Reclaim the Future, Greta was at the frontline, highlighting the violence fossil fuel industries inflict on the planet. Her protest last week with Norwegian pop star Aurora at Mongstad was widely circulated on social media, amplifying the message and attracting both local and international press.

On the digital front, HypeAuditor calculates Greta’s Instagram presence at over 15 million followers, placing her at #1940 among global influencers in August 2025, with monthly earnings estimated around thirty thousand dollars. This social capital has translated into a steady stream of attention and financial support for campaigns.

Recent speculation online about Greta’s celebrity connections, like the continued mutual admiration between Greta and Leonardo DiCaprio, as covered by IMDb, has been reignited but remains purely in the respectful domain—despite online trolls’ attempts to distort the narrative.

Also making the rounds are video snippets of Greta speaking strongly about Israel’s oppression of Palestinians and the need for global pressure, further connecting her climate fight with intersectional advocacy. Much of this is confirmed by her own posts and appearances in international media.

All told, in just a week Greta Thunberg has gone from publicly challenging Norway’s fossil fuel infrastructure and banks to gearing up for a historic Gaza aid flotilla, all while maintaining a digital footprint that not only drives engagement but also shapes ongoing global conversations around both climate and human rights.
