Greta Thunberg’s UN addressbecame the speech heard ’round the world this week. Thunberg addressed hundreds of global leaders and while one,President Trump, seemed unimpressedby the 16 – year-old climate activist, another US politician wants to help her.

Thunberg said this week that former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger offered to lend her his electric car. In clip from the Scandinavian talk show “Skavlan,” Thunberg reveals the governator’s offer.

In the teaser clip, Thunberg speaks in her native Swedish and tellshost Fredrik Skavlanthat many people have offered to help her. “One of the funniest offers I’ve received is that Arnold Schwarzenegger has offered me to lend his electric car if I want to,” she said, according to a translation by Newsweek.

In 2017, Schwarzenegger partnered withelectric mobility company Kreiselto develop an electric Hummer. CBS News has reached out to reps for Schwarzenegger for more details about his offer to lend the car to Thunberg.

The teen will continue her climate crusade in Montreal, and we may just see her cruising there in an electric Hummer.

This is not the first time Schwarzenegger hasshowed support for Thunberg. In 2018, the actor-turned-politician tweeted about how Thunberg inspired him. The two finally met in May 2019 at a climate conference in Austria. Schwarzenegger shared a photo of himself with Thunberg,saying he was “starstruck.”

“He could feel the eyes on the back of his head,” Moore said as the audience laughed.

“I was stopped because suddenly he came in and security went, ‘You have to step to the side.’ And suddenly he came in, “Thunberg explained. “I think I was very shocked.”

Skavlan also asked Thunberg aboutMr. Trump’s tweet about her. The teen agreed that of course Mr. Trump was being sarcastic when he called her a “very happy young girl looking forward to a bright and wonderful future.”

“I knew that sometime he was probably going to say something about me,” Thunberg said. “It was like, it doesn’t make any difference, in a way.”
