This young lady really triggers the Maga crowd. It's pretty appalling actually.
Yes, she was dramatic. (Anyone been around any pre-teens/teen-agers lately?) Yes, she sees the entire issue in black and white? Repeat above question.
She sure does trigger them. She's quite a powerhouse. Look at the millions of young people this year who have marched as opposed to just her last year. She is hitting a nerve for sure.
This kid, left "suffering" with all of the conveniences of the modern world like cell phones, cars, first responders, computers, space research, vast amounts of knowledge on the internet. All of these things require carbon. Nothing was stolen, in fact she has been handed a silver platter and open book to a world where she has more knowledge and resources at the tip of her finger than in the history of the world to go out and create, innovate, lead, and educate.
And all of it, it appears, is totally wasted on her. Let her eat (flax) cake.

This argument is tired. I'm not part of the "MAGA crowd" by any means, but its the same tripe you folks rolled out to lamely attempt to counter any dissent towards AOC, David Hogg, and now this girl. Nobody is afraid, triggered, or having a nerve hit.
People have basic disagreements with the whole concept of whats going on with this girl, those are called opinions. They aren't any of the other silly, vapid, meaningless things you all try to deflect with.

Making no difference whatsoever. If she and the rest of the flakes are in panic, they can just go sit down, take a time-out and wait a decade. At the end of said period, all will still be fine.

I think she thinks the worry she's feeling with the dire threats that we will all cook or drown in next 5 years is ruining her childhood.
Welcome to the world, sister. We had our "childhoods stolen" sitting under desks with our arms over our heads, and my parents wondered if the economy would ever bounce back, or if humanity was headed for mass starvation during the depression.
For the most part, we're all still here, remembering that awful feeling that comes with the realization that we aren't bulletproof. One day, we'll all be dust.

I'm entitled to my opinion as well, eh?
Let's hope she doesn't get the death threats that David Hogg did.
Alongside youth from over 150 countries around the world, students have converged in BC's capital and plan to occupy the intersection of Government and Belleville Streets starting at 2:00 p.m. this afternoon for 11 straight hours.
The road closure is meant to represent 11 hours of action for the 11 years until 2030, the deadline for the planet to stop a rise of 1.5 C in global temperatures to prevent environmental catastrophes, according to the United Nations.
