Greta Thunberg I have a lot of mixed feeling about her.
She has a important message and if she can get the job done im ok with it but we have had loads of people before her talking about climate, pollution and change and load along here some people even younger but they did not get plastered all over the place, what made greta different? was it because of the key time, age or something else.
She is not the first or only person talking about pollution but acts that way which can be annoying.
I feel she and her family are more interested in the fame then the message,
Does she really need to miss school to get her message across.
I would have liked her to actually do something, maybe plant a few trees, work with people bring to promote and roll out schemes. Do something usful.
she reminds me of the annoying youtube stares that jump on a message to get a few likes.
The first thing I saw when I opened this thread, I almost fell over.
you do have a point, UK could become 100% clean but it wont make a lot of difference if places like India and china dont do the same but we need to try and get other to do the same.
Most governments are just lazy and wait till its too late or just cant be bothered unless forced.
Recycling for example, 25 years when I was a kid I use to watch a show called captain planet and would wonder why the local council does not have a scheme recycling or anything in place to reduce pollution, guess how long it took to put something in place a child was thinking about. 24 years is how long it too the local council to put something useful in place.

lolOh, absolutely. Imagine how many NHS workers' jobs depend on the tobacco, alcohol and fizzy drinks industries
One can only applaud Greta Thunberg and Sir David Attenborough for not criticising them.

Or it may be people just shrug there shoulders and think why bother when there are countries like India and China polluting the hell out of the planet and we dont see any real change taking place there.
Which is why i think we need to start with science and engineering.
Cheep unlimited power would be like cream donuts to a fat kid for developing countries and those with the best part of 3 Billion people between them. If we could move the planet over to cleaner energy then thats a lot of the battle.
But we would rather pump trillions into the war machine that keeps the middle east so much of a pleasant place!!
