Luisa Neubauer, approx. 1 million euros, climate protection activist
Luisa Neubauer is without a doubt the face of the German climate protection movement. As a member of the “Fridays for Future” group, which was founded by the Swede Greta Thunberg and consists mainly of schoolchildren, students and other young people, Luisa Neubauer was able to make a name for herself.
She not only organizes strikes and protests, but also serves as the face of the movement on talk shows, interviews and question and answer sessions. The media attention that Luisa received also helped her financially. Although she does not receive any compensation for her activism, she was able to build up an estimated fortune of around one million euros through book sales and as a publicist, among other things.
