Doesn’t that Swedish person ever go to school or does she think she knows it all already?


She’s off to Davos now for a world summit.

sorry but I don't feel berated by Greta, I feel deeply sorry for her.
So long as she understands that she is being used and is a willing participant then that's fine.

So do I. She’s got to suffer what we’re failing to address and undo.
I find her a rather unlikable young lady who is quite rude in her approach. She has very little respect. I haven't read through this thread. I have had enough of her and the publicity she is getting. she needs to grow up - most 17 year olds I know are far more mature than her.
She’s 16. She doesn’t have to go to school.
Ok, 17. So still she doesn’t have to be in school.
Grommit; In my opinion, Mr Chia did the right thing to protect his property, there is no evidence that he did it for any other reason.
In future, attitudes will change because of this, if not man-made, but man-helped disaster.

Please note; Mr Chia's house is still standing.
She makes uncomfortable watching but not because of the message she’s promoting. She’s naive, prone to hysteria, and she’s being used.
Anyone tell me what qualifications she has regarding climate change.

\\This means that if his network reaches its planned 100m users, his 500 investors can expect to start to make a good profit on the 23 million kronor ($2.5m) they have put into the company, he said.

"Our goal is to have 100 million users and if we achieve that we can. like Facebook, earn money from ads." .//
She has Aspergers and OCD and climate change is her fixation which is typical of the disorder. If it wasn't climate change it would be something else (train spotting etc) Instead of indulging her, her parents should be encouraging her to have a decent childhood if it is not already too late.
gromit.
exactly, which is why ill ignore her.
Attenborough is qualified though. Willyou listen to him ?
More so than Greta.
//I’ve never really understood why people stick their heads in the sand about this issue. Is it guilt? Stupidity?//

I think it’s neither of those. I cannot speak for everybody, only for myself and a few acquaintances whose views I have canvassed. I have no doubt that global temperatures are increasing slightly. I’ve less confidence that it is entirely due to human activity. However, from my point of view it doesn’t matter because whatever is done will make no difference. In this country we are poncing about with light bulbs, windmills, solar farms and encouraging people to adopt a plant based diet to “save the planet”. At the same time, large shops are seen with their doors wide open in January and February, heating the street with their 25Kw curtain heaters. Meanwhile, the USA and China, responsible for 45% of the world’s greenhouse gases (compared to the UK's 1.1%), have absolutely no intention of jeopardising their economy and will continue to produce emissions at the same or increased levels.

The idiots that planted a boat in the middle of Oxford Circus for a week and followed this up by gluing themselves to underground trains are simply becoming extremely boring. They should take their protests to Tiananmen Square and Pennsylvania Avenue and see how they get on there. Hopefully Ms Thunberg will join them.
As the population continues to increase, so will the pollution, deforestation, if we want to deal with this we need to successfully implement birth control globally.

Specifically re. "climate change", who has? But at least they both have education & life experience, viz;

'Trump was born and raised in Queens, a borough of New York City, and received a bachelor's degree in economics from the Wharton School. He took charge of his family's real-estate business in 1971, renamed it The Trump Organization, and expanded its operations from Queens and Brooklyn into Manhattan.'

'Johnson was born in New York City to upper-middle class British parents, and was educated at Eton College, then at Balliol College, Oxford, where he read Classics and was elected President of the Oxford Union in 1986.' [Then Journalist, Mayor of London, British Prime Minister.]

Greta should delve into the so called evidence, as I did, and concluded that it is hogwash.
