The mashup

This mashup which was played on the live show had originally made it to the internet on September 23 after musician David Scott from The Kiffness made it and further shared it with images of icebergs breaking up. This mash-up was also shared by Fatboy Slim on Facebook and Twitter. But he also played the set during his live show. The audience can also be heard saying the speech while the mash-up is being played and then dancing on the beats. This is also not the first modification of Thunberg's speech at UNGA.
