What big companies? You mean the companies providing the goods and services us consumers, us individuals, are consuming? Please elaborate.

Tell this twit to talk to China, not the USA. They are by far the worst.

Just more liberal garbage from the fake MSM.

I agree about her looks should not be an issue, but I do find it odd how they are purposely trying to portray her as if she is ten years old or something, I am sure it is on purpose as image in advocacy is an important factor, especially when trying to appeal to emotion.

I stand by another poster's point that she's ignoring 1/3 of the world's population, China and India.

Her parents probably just want to come over here to a non-socialist country and become rich from capitalism and fools who buy into this crap.

There is nothing wrong with a forceful appeal to an important issue, if people want to criticize her focus with intelligent comments fine but making fun of her looks is childish.


She said that she is working on her anger management issues, Trump should do the same.

Corporate America wanted the cheap labor, LACK OF REGULATIONS AND POLUTION STANDARDS that helped CREATE THE BEAST CHINA IS.

So to point at China. Still has other fingers pointing back at CORPORATE AMERICA RELOCATIONS that basically got the ball rolling in wanting cheap, CHEAP and NO POLUTION STANDARDS as they were costly required in the US past decades as they increased.

I'd stop some of this personal trait attacks on this Teen. She definitely has a future no matter what your personal view on looks are.

No one expected Trump chosen and be happy no Democrat was either running for office by Time. . China signed the Climate accord as they ALSO WANT TO CLEAN UP THIER CITIES.

Thankfully, our once smog-prone cities are clearer today. But much is Corporate America's moving out with its manufacturing too.

She wasn't ignoring anyone, she was speaking to the world and by the way and maybe you didn't know this but the US consumes more fossil fuels per capita than China or India, the only reason they exceed us is because they have a greater population.

If she did that, she couldn’t hang out with hypocrites like Leonardo, Arnold and Al Gore.

Who cares? We produce tonnnns of oil and aren't the largest polluter by a LONG SHOT.

Plus, half of Americans want to make love to trees.

There are wayyyy worse places to criticize than the USA.
