Please take five minutes to watch Greta speaking to the UN Climate gathering this morning. This is history in the making and, I pray, the future in the making. As world leaders gather to talk about how they are trying to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement, sixteen-year-old Greta Thunberg asks, “How dare you?”
Meanwhile, the American so-called “President” and his profile-in-courage Vice-President staged a walkout after making sour pouty faces for about ten minutes. And no, I’m not kidding.

This rude child is an off-shoot or re-run of AOC, not any smarter and not any more informed. She is a good speaker and that’s about it. She can get a role in hollywood which is probably what she is aiming for. Sad that she seems to have fooled everyone, with the media’s help. Give her credit for public speaking, and for acting, this is where her skill is . As for saving the planet, she has done absolutely nothing. As the saying goes, “talk is easy”.

I don’t understand people who would rather trash-talk a young woman who is overcoming the barriers of autism to become a world leader on a problem of unprecedented proportions than to hold multibillion polluting corporations accountable. That just doesn’t make sense. Do your research. She has turned down every award and recognition and formal position they have tried to foist upon her. She knows what she can do well, and it isn’t Hollywood. Her articulate and intelligent plea has turned out millions all over the world. That ain’t “absolutely nothing.” Ever heard the saying, “If the people lead, eventually the leaders will follow?” We finally have a leader, in the form of a child. You can stay behind if you want to, eventually history will hold us all to account.

I was impressed by this key sentence. “We are in the beginning of a mass extinction, and all you can talk about is money and fairy tales of eternal economic growth.” Here she’s talking about the religious-like cult which totally dominates our society preaching that economic growth is always good and bigger is always better.
So I sent it to my liberal/progressive Democrat General Assembly delegation which is totally devoted to this cult and to trickle-down economics.
Nothing short of revolution unseating the cult and their two political parties will do.

Me too. That fairy tale line took my breath away.

This child is amazing. She has helped children all around the world to stand up for their right to a world they are going to inherit.
