When it comes to environmental issues, young Swedish environmental activist, Greta Thunberg is undoubtedly, a fantastic role model but at the moment, her £24,000 statue installed at a university in her honour, has sparked anger among students.
The students have branded the sculpture a “vanity project” but the University of Winchester according to a BBC News report, believes it is the world’s first life-sized sculpture of the “inspirational” Swedish environmental activist.
The students’ union opined that the funds used for the production and installation of the statue, could have been better spent, even when the university said “no money was diverted” from student support or staffing for the project.
