Greta Thunberg is getting a huge mural in downtown San Francisco (calculating, prices)

Re Tesla: I love everything about the sw and autonomous drive assist, but I can deal with the BORING interior of the 3.
I like the huge touchscreen, though. I am keeping my eye on the truck... that could be my Greta-mobile.

Re Greta, it's shocking how many people fall for cult of personality. Yes, Tulemutt, I know what you are thinking, but you're going for the easy assumption.

I find it funny she has a mural, Global Warming although not scientifically proven is basically a religion of San Franciscans rather than the real God.

didn't you get the memo... it's no longer Global Warming, it's now Climate Change.
The news is, the climate is changing.

By the time Dinosaurs stopped using fossil fuels it was too late, let’s not repeat their mistakes!

The Left's mistake on environmental issues, climate change, etc., was to make it a divisive political issue.
As if the rest of the world doesn't care about the same issues.
There are ways to present without the attitude and hypocrisy that gets us all behind what we all want to solve.

Why not just plaster her face over the nearby hidden murals of George Washington?

I read the Greta mural took over 700 cans of aerosol paint to create.

That is some real forward thinking there.

You “read”, eh? Perhaps from “... the right-leaning website The Blaze ...” ?

Um: FALSE

Did a Mural of Greta Thunberg Use 700 Gallons of Spray Paint?
A right-leaning social media activist grossly exaggerated the environmental impact of a San Francisco mural in honor of the climate change activist.

“ Some folks have been asking about the environmental impacts of the Greta mural. Read on for some details. The vast majority of the paint is water-based acrylic exterior paint that was rolled onto the building by hand. The finishing details can only be done with spray paint, but we are using spray cans without CFCs. (CFCs are tremendously damaging to the environment). We are using low pressure cans with a minimal footprint. The cans and the boxes will also be recycled, although many of the cans will first have a second life as part of a separate art project.

The cans have been picked up and delivered in an electric vehicle, and the artist and organizers have been travelling almost exclusively by way of electric car, electric scooter or on foot to the project site. The lift being used is also electric, not diesel. We are doing our best to Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, in that order!”

Some lack of any kind of thinking there. Maybe next time you “read” something you’ll take a moment’s effort to check it out through multiple credible sources?
