Another April Fools' Day come and gone, another time Greta Thunberg proved to us she's a social media master.

Thunberg, known for her snappy comebacks and witty posts on her Twitter, made a post on April 1st where she said she'd compiled a video full of resources and ideas that everyone can do to slow down the effects of the climate crisis.


When you clicked the link, what do you think you saw?

Well, some of the older folks among us weren't quite sure at first.





Mostly people were absolutely floored at how funny and quick Greta Thunberg is over her social media.





It's a rite of passage for anybody who has ever been on the internet to be "Rickrolled," aka, tricked into clicking a link of "Never Gonna Give You Up" by Rick Astley.

The phenomenon made its way outside of the internet, too, and even made it to the likes of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and the Disney film Ralph Breaks The Internet.





Thanks, Greta, for your work. We ALL must do our part to prevent climate change and a climate crisis.

Including Rick Astley.
