Greta Thunberg is Time Magazine’s 2019 Person of the Year.
The 16 year-old Swedish teen became a worldwide superstar after she launched a movement to fight climate change. She is the youngest person to be chosen by the magazine in a tradition that started in 1927.
Last year, the teenager started an environmental strike by missing lessons most Fridays to protest outside the Swedish parliament building. It sparked a worldwide movement that became popular with the hashtag #FridaysForFuture.
Since then, she has become a strong voice for action on climate change, inspiring millions of students to join protests around the world. Earlier this year, she was nominated as a candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize.

Apple‘s new Mac Pro desktop computer is out. And if you want to get the best one possible and max out all of the specs, prepare to pay.
Because if you max out the new Mac Pro, it’ll cost you $52,599. The cheapest model you can get is $6,000.
And by the way, that price doesn’t include Apple’s new $5,000 monitor or its $1,000 stand.
