Well no surprise to see the American taliban old bastards agreeing on something. She is talking about climate to her own generation, not trying to be your re-imagined college girlfriend boomers. Stop making people into things they ain't. This demonizing of females is why your relationships failed into loveless shells. If someone you choose to troll is too reasonable to really hate on, just shamelessly invent a characeture version and ignore all evidence to the contrary.
Nah, I'm pretty sure she's speaking to the older generations... "They also rely on MY generation sucking hundreds of billions of tons of YOUR CO2 out of the air with technologies that barely exist...!" Etc blah blah blah. The older generations of CO2 made her. Wish she would realize that. All the meat, biomass and fossil fuels her parents consumed to be able to produce her as a baby, she has not calculated. She should have a steaming hearty cup of STFU and be thankful she exists. Her mind is too fragile and unsophisticated to understand her own existentialism. She'd need to eat a lot of meat and stay warm by a CO2-producing heat source to understand her own reality.
I used to think you just don't engage brain before putting mouth in gear so much but lately I read you more as a Seinfeld type character in my head and it seems more normal. OK maybe not real life normal, but something recognisable at least. She is caught up in a whirlwind of fame however I think in 20 years when all childlike spoilt whiner boomers are dead (not still trying to compete for attention with their grandkids) and the technology vs planetary thermodynamics battle results are historical fact, she will be well regarded. Probably will have a meltdown on the way but who hasn't had one. I spent several years of my 20s shooting the arse off elephant etc. poachers mostly. I achieved little for elephant numbers (though a fair bit of banked DNA) however anyone who actually gets out front instead of back seat driving has my vote. Go Greta.
Well, I'll take that as a compliment then. for whatever non-worth it brings. Teehee. Indeed... Caught up in a whirlwind of fame, not in a whirlwind of reasonable and well-thought-out intellectual masturbation. You CANNOT have a world of zero carbon emissions with the way humanity lives! So stop trying! We're NOT destroying the planet with carbon emissions! If people would study geological records, they would see that the earth has been going through these cycles thousands of times in it's history! The poles have shifted hundreds of times over it's lifespan of BILLIONS of years. People have no concept of time. Even a man-made nuclear winter would not kill this planet, and this is evident for two reasons. A.) Mass-extinction events. They have happened before, they will happen again. Greta, read geologic history. B.) Chernobyl. Worst nuclear accident in history. Now look at the site. All the flora is flourishing again. The earth will continue. And Greta is so proud of "carbon neutral" travel, and refuses to fly on airliners. God forbid she buckles and travels back to Europe on a container ship, which burns heavy crude (diesel), instead of the much cleaner Jet-A.
