Swedish environmental activist Greta Thunberg was adopted in the design of his country's postage stamps, and the postal company "reflected the present age facing environmental problems."

The Swedish postal company has announced that it will sell stamps with the motif of environmental activist Greta from the 14th.



Mr. Greta is known for advocating the need for measures against global warming and leading to a global movement centered on young people.



The stamp depicts Greta, wearing a yellow coat, standing on a cliff and staring at a bird.

In addition to one stamp for about 150 yen in Japanese yen, a set of 10 stamps including stamps depicting Swedish nature such as grasslands, forests and wetlands will be sold in addition to stamps depicting Mr. Greta.



In Sweden, people who are popular with the public such as athletes and writers have been selected as stamp motifs, but the reason why the postal company adopted Greta for the stamp design is "Sweden stamp motif is. There is a history of topics that reflect the times. It was a natural choice to choose environmental issues that affect our lives. "
