How does Greta Thunberg and Sylvia Stults explore climate change?
Elena L [17]

Answer and Explanation:

Sylvia Stults explored climate change through poetry and literature. She was able to write a very influential poem, where she was able to point out in an incisive way the negative impacts of environmental pollution, where climate changes were associated. Sylvia Stults, in her poem, shows how nature has been negatively modified over the years, causing degradation, dishonest and excessive exploitation and contamination of what is essential for our life, nature.

Greta Thunberg, on the other hand, approaches environmental changes in a more political way, drawing the attention of directives of great leaders and political organizations so that they can fix the environmental problems they have created, thus guaranteeing a future for children who are not responsible for pollution, degradation and climatic changes that are being submitted.
