Greta Thunberg Gets A Tesla Model 3 From Arnold Schwarzenegger

Sixteen year-old Swedish climate change activist Greta Thunberg, who has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, was in the United States and Canada for the past two weeks demanding immediate government action to combat climate change.

In line with her cause, the young advocate got around on a Tesla Model 3 loaned to her by a self-confessed fan named Arnold "The Terminator" Schwarzenegger, who was once governor of California and is also a vocal climate change activist.

The climate change fighter has breathed new life into global campaigns against climate change by adding the voice of outraged children. On Sept. 18, Greta who also has autism delivered an eight sentence statement before the House of Representatives Select Committee on the Climate Crisis.

Two days later, she spoke before young people and adults that joined the Global Climate Strike in New York City. On Sept. 23, Thunberg addressed assembled world leaders at the 2019 UN Climate Action Summit held in New York City. She blasted the stunned world leaders for their apathy as regards climate change.

"You are failing us," railed Thunberg. "But the young people are starting to understand your betrayal. The eyes of all future generations are upon you. And if you choose to fail us, I say: We will never forgive you."

On Friday, Thunberg made the long ride to Montreal, Canada for the country's Global Climate Strike by riding in a Tesla Model 3 provided by Schwarzenegger.

Both these European celebrities first met in May in Austria, Schwarzenegger's home country.

At this meeting, the stronfman turned actor arranged for Thunberg to use a Tesla Model 3 to ferry her to various protest events around the U.S. and Canada in September.

Schwarzenegger had asked Thunberg to call "if she needed anything," according to Arnold's spokesman, per Car and Driver.

But Schwarzenegger then felt that since Thunberg would have have to travel by car around North America, he volunteered to help arrange for Thunberg to travel in a Model 3.

"Greta can travel fully electric through the United States and Canada," said the spokesman before Thunberg began her North American tour.

Oddly, Schwarzenegger doesn't own a Tesla. Instead, he owns a Kreisel Electric modified H1 Hummer, said to be the world's first electric version of the massive SUV. This huge EV is Schwarzenegger's "favorite car to drive," according to the actor's spokesman.

Schwarzenegger also owns a Kreisel electrified Mercedes-Benz G-class. Tesla CEO Elon Musk should probably convince Arnold to own a Tesla.
