Ah, a nail and joining me Today's Catherine.

Today's story is about Greta Ton Berg's speech to the United Nations.

Yes, okay, so let's hear a clip from that speech that Greta Timberg made to the United Nations.

We are in the beginning, off a mass extinction, and all you can talk about is the money and fairy tales off eternal economic growth.

So, Greta Totenberg there now she's the 16 year old Swedish climate change activist.

She expressed her frustration at world leaders for, as she says, their failure to act on climate change.

She thinks that Maur interested in making money than they are in dealing with environmental issues.

Okay, well, you've been looking across the various news websites and you've picked out some really interesting vocabulary that go with this story.

Fairy tales Death stare And how dare you?

What's the headline headline is from Yahoo News?

Emotional Greta Totenberg denounces fairytales off eternal economic growth at U.

Okay, fairy tales stories people have invented which disguised the truth.

Now that's a bit different to the fairy tales I know.

What's this got to do with economic climate?

So, yeah, fairytales are those Children's stories Snow White, Little Red Riding Hood, All those stories where there's usually a princess who is in love with a handsome prince and the prince has to kill a monster or fight somebody or something bad happens.

But always at the end, the prince marries the beautiful princess and everybody's happy forever.

They all live happily ever or live happily ever after, but we kind of know it's not true life.

It's lovely to believe fairy tales As a child.

It's a sort of model of the way we would love life to be.

So what Greta is saying, the way it's used here is to say his life is not a story.

And she's saying that the politicians are telling us there will be a happy ending with that with their economic plans and policies.

But it's actually it's not really yes, Ally, it's a fantasy is a fantasy.

Ah, as a sort of as an adjective to mean a very positive.

You can say that's a fairy tale when you think somebody's lying to you or they're selling you a fantasy.

But you can also use it in a positive sense.

If you have a fairy tale romance or a fairytale wedding, you actually do marry your handsome prince or your beautiful princess in real life s Oh, it's when you've got, you know, the cake and the flowers, and everybody's happy and crying that convey, actually, for once the dream comes true way.

Also hear this about teams or sportsmen, sports people who do very well despite not being that great or no, Not normally performing to that Lear recently.

In the last few seasons, Leicester City won the English Premier League.

Nobody expected that Croatia went got to the World Cup final.

The very small and very new nation fairy tale.

When something amazingly, wonderfully good happens with a brilliant ending that nobody expected.

Okay, let's move on to our next headline.
