Climate activist Greta Thunberg told the world's political and business leaders Tuesday that the global movement sparked by her school strike was only the very beginning in the fight against global warming and much more has to be done.

"People are more aware now ... climate and environment are a hot topic now."

"Without treating it as a real crisis we cannot solve it, she said.
