In reality, the trademark should be property of those that created the brand. Namely, We Mean Business in partnership with the #UN & partner, World Economic Forum.

Callum Grieve: We Mean Business architect. Thunberg handler. #Branding expert.

We Mean Business: 1,176 corporations rep. 24.8 trillion market cap.

Aside from how ridiculous it is to feign disapproval that a #brand created by/serving the most powerful institutions/ corporations on the planet is being misused, I want to touch upon a couple of things.
Jan 29 2020, GT: "I apologize to anyone who has been contacted - and even misled - by this kind of behavior."

I would hate to miss #FridaysForFinance

Let's start with this.

Oct. 15 2019, Thunberg:

"I have never said that we can’t have economic growth. I have just said that instead of focusing on economic growth & talking about money, we should talk about human lives & ecosystems."
That sounds a lot like this from Klein:

"But I have never said that we need to "slay" "ditch" or "dismantle" #capitalism in order to fight climate change."



@empathiser
@empathiser No wonder Susan Rockefeller (pictured), Angel Gurría, The Guardian etc. etc. - all love Klein so much.

Isra Hirsi, daughter of US congresswoman Ilhan Omar, is co-founder of US Youth Climate Strike. When it launched (2019) it essentially mirrored Thunberg's campaign. Today it is a MoveOn for youth.

@JohnStauber can tell you all about MoveOn - a front party for the US democrats.
I can tell you about MoveOn too. It is a co-founder of Avaaz, an NGO that I have researched & written extensively about since 2012.

Avaaz: Imperialist Pimps of Militarism, Protectors of the Oligarchy, Trusted Facilitators of War:

As we peel back the layers of an orchestrated movement that serves to protect the ruling classes & the suicidal capitalist system itself, we need to look at Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate and Energy. This will be a long & important thread. #FridaysForFinance
The Compact of Mayors officially merged w/ the Covenant of Mayors in 2016. The Global Covenant of Mayors [for Climate and Energy] unites more than 9209 cities (already committed) in 132 countries across 6 continents. This represents the world's largest coalition.
The Board is co-chaired by European Commission Vice-President Maroš Šefčovič and former New York City Mayor and U.N. Secretary-General’s Special Envoy for Climate Action Michael Bloomberg. Former UNFCCC Executive Secretary Christiana Figueres serves as Vice-Chair.
