Greta Thunberg

[Old Greg]

Even in General, generally speaking we leave each others' kids out of it. Cheers.

They're not your kids anyway.

She will err at some point, teenagers always do. Drugs found in a car she's in or something. Then the press will want to talk about that, not her views on penguins and rainforests.

Then the predatory politicians that have been screaming "THIS CHILD IS THE FUTURE!!" for the last 2 years will be like "Greta who?" and this whole thing will be over. She will not have the skills to deal with that sadly. People will occasionally say she couldn't deal with the pressure, as if 16 year old kids with neurodivergence are born with the ability to deal with world fame.

Any politician who has jumped on this bandwagon should be told to grow the feck up;

I hope you accept that something SHOULD happen on climate change?

I just can't see anything will change.

The press gives coverage, and the world goes on...

I read one article (might have been the times) pleading to be allowed to keep foreign holidays (while cycling everywhere and going vegetarian) as they provide great memories.

I assumed the reason travelling by plane was being targeted was due to its effect on the environment. I don't think eco-warriors are in this trying to be kill joys.

Its going to need a black swan event for humankind to survive beyond the next couple of hundred years.

That look she gave when Trump walked in to the UN:



Was she practicing her Paddington hard stare?

Yes, if Climate Change is "man made" the obvious solution is to eradicate the human race.
