Time magazine has named Greta Thunberg, a 17-year-old Swedish girl, the "Person of the Year" for 2019. Greta holds the record for being the youngest person to receive that name. One of the main reasons for her being named is that she is the youngest person in the world to fight global warming. The cover is titled "The Power of Youth".

Year" every year since 1927. Until 1999, it was named "Man of the
Year" or "Woman of the Year".It was changed to "Person of
the Year" after that year. The goal is to nominate the person or group of
the year that has impacted the world in a good or bad way.It is named
"Person of the Year", but it is also given to groups. That amendment
came into effect in 1937.
