These people cannot think past the nose on their face. They are burning down the bridges in front of them, without thinking thru how they are going to build the replacement bridge, now that they are trapped, surrounded by a steep gorge on all sides.

Maybe Greta should be told about babies being aborted, anti rape courses for asylum seekers in her country, increased crime on women and elderly in her Country. Enough for her to be concerned about and not to seek the higher stage and scare the crap out so many people as she looks like a person from one of the horror movies. Either she need an award for playing the scary part so well or she needs to be getting help.
Maybe they should treat her like the kid she is and not seek to use her for political purposes.

When they put her out there as a main voice, the science argument just went out the window.

This is not about science... it's marketing. People want to make money off of this climate hoax. Never lose sight of that.

But..... if you are one of the anointed political elites, then you can fly around on private jets all you like. And you can own multiple homes, and enjoy a giant carbon footprint that's equal to hundreds of the useful idiots you've created.

Great analogy. We all want a cleaner environment , but it is an extremely complex problem, with no clear , feasible solutions as of yet. As one poster mentioned, if we are willing to roll back the clocks to the pre industrial era, we might impact change. Are we all willing to do that ?

LOL..the only people making money on the climate crisis and denier junk science are the fossil fuel companies that continue to rake in billions of dollars as well as autocrats that depend on that money.

The fossil fuel industry junk science propaganda machine has worked so well that Deniers still rely on this junk science though some of these fossil fuel companies acknowledge the reality of anthropogenic climate change.

Despite all this, Deniers continue to be useful idiots to many in the fossil fuel industry and gladly do their work hampering all efforts in halting climate change.

Come on, my G6 puts out much less of a carbon foot print than an A380 that the morlocks of society have to fly around in does !

How do people think Al gore became a multi-millionaire? People get filthy rich off the man-made global warming hoax. Politicians gain the power and influence over people and industry, which they desire, by using the man-made global warming hoax.

Better one is DiCrappio renting the TOPAZ!

https://moneyinc.com/leonard-dicaprios-yacht/

>The super yacht measures a total of 453 feet in length with a cost of more than $200 million in USD to build and an estimated value of $678 million. This isn’t the biggest yacht that Mr. DiCaprio has chartered, but it’s likely to be one of the most luxurious. The yacht is powered by four M90 diesel engines which generate approximately 48,000 horse power. The ship made its maiden launch in 2012 and according to sources, DiCaprio also rented it in 2014 just 2 years into its service run.<

How much fuel do (4) 12000 horsepower engines burn going from the Med to Brazil?
