Youth environmental activist Greta Thunberg’s passionate speeches and call for action have roused many people to work towards climate conservation.

However, she’s now made it to news for a reason that is as strange as it is unexpected. A 120-year-old photo of a young girl has surfaced online, and the girl in the photo looks exactly like Greta Thunberg.

The photo, which is reportedly from 1898, shows three children around a gold mine. And the girl right in front of the photo is being compared to Greta, because of how similar the two look.

From their facial structure to their hairstyle, the two girls could pass for twins, or in Twitterati’s opinion, this is a case of ‘time-travel’:
Greta the time traveler revisiting to help us save the planet ….

If Greta Thunberg is 121, she must be a vampire not a time traveler, but probably not. Lol

People are really believe that @GretaThunberg is a time traveler but don’t believe climate change. Ok

Logically, it just appears to be a crazy coincidence. But, a part of me can’t help but root for time-travel!
