Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg has revealed she will not be attending the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Egypt in November, branding the forum an opportunity for “people in power... to [use] greenwashing, lying, and cheating.”

Thunberg, 19, made the comments at the London Literature Festival at the Southbank Centre on Sunday, which she attended while promoting her new book, “The Climate Book.”
