Popular climate activist has never hesitated to call out bigots on social media. She recently took down Andrew Tate who targeted her on Twitter.
The controversial media figure is known for making misogynistic and far-right remarks. He directed his latest comment to Thunberg and wrote: "I have 33 cars. My Bugatti has a w16 8.0L quad turbo. My TWO Ferrari 812 competizione have 6.5L v12s. This is just the start. Please provide your email address so I can send a complete list of my car collection and their respective enormous emissions."
He also tagged her in the tweet.
Thunberg seemed unfazed by his attack and wrote back: "yes, please do enlighten me. email me at [email protected]."
However, Tate appeared to be riled over her response because he said: "How dare you" to the teen activist.
Many Twitter users backed Thunberg and praised her. Some even joined in on making fun of Tate. One user wrote: "Newsflash. He’s already sent his list of cars to that address ten times and can’t figure out why he’s getting bouncebacks in his inbox."
Another imparted information and wrote: "Clever quip, but sadly it is factually misplaced. In the case of high-end cars, it is the production process that emits a lot more carbon -- because of the use of bespoke techniques and materials and global sourcing at any cost."
