Greta Thunberg

[Penfold101]

Does she need to be qualified? It's hardly like anyone listens to the people who actually are.

Sadly I can't argue with that

Whilst this is depressingly true, from my own POV I’m not going to take advice from someone who is purely an activist with no actual qualifications in the subject they’re activisting for.

I agree with the message and the subject and that CC is real and human influenced, I’ve just no idea how she’s managed to become the person she has by parroting what we already knew.

There was an empty slot in the worldpic for an Angry Climate Child. Greta filled the slot.

Though if she isn't careful she'll decay into the Maid of Moans.

She’s basically just turning into a Karen at this point.

She always was.

It's sad what her family did to her, but I guess it's one way to aimlessly drift through life.

I remember someone in America posting photos of the car she was using to travel across america and it was full of plastic bottles and fast food rubbish...

I can't find the video... oh wait this video has clips of it

Someone should do a kendrick lamar parody or "not like us" and call it "just like us"

What has this got to do with climate change et al?

All those bombs going off, and tanks really are not built for economy and low emissions.

Rebel News, jesus wept.

What are we supposed to be shocked at here? That someone needs to eat and isn't tidy?

 

[D.P.]

My biggest problem is that she isn’t qualified to talk about any more than I’m qualified to talk about neural biology.













Which I’m not, BTW. I fix planes.

She isn't proposing new hypotheses or disputing established research, she is merely repeating scientific facts and trying to spread the warnings that the actual experts are publishing. The scientific consensus was reached decades ago so it's not like she is even siding with some potentially contentious issue that has any uncertainty.

Exactly - like most reality TV stars, she’s become famous simply for being famous and nothing actually useful.

no just another hypocrite pretending shes all about saving the world, but consumes plastic as much as everyone else and sets no example for others to follow...
It's just like a cult for grifters

 

[VincentHanna]

Pretty hard to road trip from New York to Canada and Mexico and not buy something with plastic I imagine.

 

[imtoooldforthis]

Yet you participate in society meme

 

[builder22]

the meme? with her in the yellow jacket and the clown is one of the best hilarious, don't think can post it as it has a bad word!

I'm sure there's loads of fruit, vegetables and places to fill up a water bottle on the way

Yikes, it's the plastic cutlery in the tin that does it, sat in the cup holder

Lets be honest here if she was absolutely perfect with her behaviour it wouldn't even matter would it?

I do find it bizarre the amount of time particularly grown assed men spend being annoyed with her.

And yeah, even if she was able to live a completely 100% non-impactful life there'd probably be a whole host of other reasons people would find to obsess over her and complain.

Grünheide: Tesla factory protesters clash with police in Germany

Protesters opposed to the expansion of the site have clashed with police.

www.bbc.co.uk

This one tickled me, environmental campaigners are protesting the expansion of an electric vehicle car factory in Germany claiming it will damage the environment. Taking hundreads of thousands of ICE vehicles off the road every year is somehow damaging the environment.

It’s almost as bad as the numpties trying to stop new transmission lines from connecting to offshore wind farms around my way because of the environment.

Burning gas in gas fired power is better right?

ehh, no, she is famous for actually having the balls to stand up to politicians and business elite, raising awareness that hzr future is being threatened by their purposeful inaction due to short term profits.

She has done far more for humanity than most. Which is why some incredibly weak people hate her do much

No hate here, just bemusement.
