Actor and politician Arnold Schwarzenegger, who has previously gushed of being “starstruck” by Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg, has now shared pictures of the two going for a bike ride around Santa Monica.
The former California governor posted images of their meeting to his Twitter account, showing them on a bike ride and meeting his daughter Christina.
He wrote: ‘It was fantastic to see my friend and one of my heroes @gretathunberg last week and go on a bike ride around Santa Monica together and I was so pumped to introduce her to my daughter Christina. Keep inspiring, Greta!’

Their day outside comes after the 16-year-old also met with Leonardo DiCaprio.
The pair have clearly built a solid friendship since last month’s revelation Schwarzenegger loaned his electric vehicle to the teen so she could travel to Canada for a protest without relying on fossil fuel-powered transportation.
As Breitbart News reported, Thunberg traveled in the vehicle with her father to Montreal.
That road trip was not the first time Thunberg has relied on the kindness of strangers to take her message of climate salvation to the world.
She is currently looking to the world for suggestions as to how she can re-cross the Atlantic after the U.N. climate summit in Chile was unexpectedly scrapped.
Thunberg made it from Sweden to California by yacht, train and electric car rides before Chile’s government announced it was canning the summit because of political unrest in the South American nation.
The COP25 summit will now be held in Spain and she is pleading for public help to make the 6000-mile trip back across the Atlantic through carbon-free modes of transportation, as Breitbart News reported.

“Schwarzenegger loaned his electric vehicle to the teen so she could travel to Canada for a protest without relying on fossil fuel-powered transportation.”
Ok. But, without relying on fossil fuel-powered transportation………..?? maybe Schwarzenegger’s EV is a “Hollywood” version with solar panels on the roof?
No. They even lie to themselves… renewable’s still supply a negligible amount of electricity to the grid.
Unless Schwarzenegger’s electric vehicle is charged by magical unicorn power or some other form of new “settled science” IT MUST be tethered for 8 hours to fossil fuel-powered electricity to recharge.
And it’s OK so long as the rest of use don’t have to subsidize there smug arrogance and they don’t try to force us to use a bicycle.
One question I have is how did that electric vehicle suddenly appear where St Greta of Thunberg was in order to get her to Montreal? It didn’t magically appear there. And as you say the electricity that charged the car was created by fossil fuels. But she gets to play like she traveled free of carbon-based fuels.
Won’t ask her how those bikes were made. Again, fossil fuels needed the whole way, including transporting them to Santa Monica.
To all those who tell us we should scrap our cars and switch to bicycles just ask them about hauling a months supply of groceries from the Super Market to home on a bike. I can still remember when i was still on grade school of this family who were all into cycling one of their girls was injured and had to come to school in a wheelchair after she was injured while riding a bicycle to big for her age
Why doesn’t she ride that e-bike all the way to Madrid?
Look look big dumb Barbarian rides bicycle whats wrong with the Horse Skreeet Skreet,
