Thunberg has been recognised for encouraging young people to fight climate change.
The magazine says she's offered a "moral clarion call" to those willing to act on climate change, and "hurled shame" on those who are not.
Earlier - at a climate summit in Madrid - she accused political and business leaders of looking for loopholes to polish their image in the fight against global warming.
“Well I am telling you there is hope. I have seen it.
But it does not come from governments or corporations.
It comes from the people.”Here’s a small part from my speech today at the #cop25 in Madrid. pic.twitter.com/Dg8pz969yS
