Your thoughts about Greta Thunberg

[squatz1]

When it comes to causes, timing is everything.  She truly believes in her cause and that there is already sufficient data but world leaders are not acting on it except with rhetoric.  Why should she waste 4 years in school if the time to act is now?

How did a 16-year old girl get to speak at the UN?
What knowledge can she possibly possess in order to change world politics?

Do we want a 16-year old to guide the worlds deciosions?
Is this just a kid to target emotions in order to influence people for your agenda or is it a climate change expert who read through the literature?

-----------
My opinion is terrible.
Someone is using this girl for his interest.

I agree, and while I think it's important that we bring awareness to the issue of climate change, I did not think this was the proper way to do it.
As soon as I saw Greta making her speech I couldn't help but wonder... who is this girl? and what makes her special enough to get up on that podium and speak in front of the world? If someone is to speak to the nation on an issue that important, it should be an expert in that field, not a little girl, who I would presume has some background in acting or the performing arts, reading off of a script.

I have no problem with the message she was trying to convey, and while a little extreme, it definitely caught the world's eye. However, I would presume that most sensible people watching this speech would realize that SOMEONE had to have put her there, and put her there only to target emotions and push an agenda, as you said. To me I couldn't get over the fact of how childish this seemed to play the sympathy card on such an important issue, and it in many ways de-legitimize a very real argument.

Would have to agree here.

She's without a doubt a little girl that probably does have these opinions about Climate Change, yes. But who propped her up to give her this stage, this isn't something that people her age are typically able to do by herselves.

How is she able to be taking off from school and travelling the world for this long. She's obviously being supported by left wing groups to be able to do this, and all her ideas and speeches weren't all made by herself. She's a puppet, and she's being used to spread ideas.

And she just becomes the Person of the year...

I don't know what to think now, she is been used as a marketing product.

The backstage authorities specially gave Greta Thunberg to us to discuss and argue whether she was right or not. But the bottom line is that you need to look at the root of the problem, and not what is shown on TV.

This girl leaves school to start his fight against global warming, but i do not agree with her way to fight. I think the right way to fight against big things like this is with a big preparation in school and not with ignorance.

I have read a lot about the topic and there are lot of extremist attacking or deffending this girl, so, what are your thoughts?

This girl makes me think what I was doing when I was of her age. I appreciate her concern and her PR too to raise her voice against behemoth like Trump and put her point across international platforms. She has her research right when she states her points to support her speech and is a good orator.

Anyone can agree that environment will be more toxic due to what we have done in the past and we shall start worrying about it. The only we can do is to regulate what we are doing at home not to contribute the destruction of the environment.

To whom should Greta address these issues? If they seek China to agree with it, the countries from EU and US has to pull out the manufacturing companies that contributes the haze in Asia.

[SinisterS]

I mean it's cool that she cares, assuming it's not just something for attention. But I just can't take the strong opinions of most teenagers too seriously since in general they are lacking so much

[BADecker]

The sad thing is, most of us would be tempted to care in the same direction she does, if we were funded like she is. No funding, we go to the next best thing. Our morals.

Clearly Greta Thunberg is being exploited by her cynical puppetmasters, but equally clearly she’s a tiresome, bizarre Marxist scold whose exploitation of the hapless dummies who buy into the climate change hoax is part of what is an increasingly violent plot to undermine capitalism and freedom. Recently, the cretins at TIME, which shockingly still exists in 2019, named her “Person of the Year.” That’s appropriate, since 2019 has been a very annoying year.

In 2029, after the world hasn’t ended but her usefulness has, she’ll be a Jeopardy question and probably shacked up with an unemployed performance artist named Björn in an Oslo suburb. Fun fact: “Greta Thunberg” is Swedish for “Cindy Sheenhan.”

But today, we’re all supposed to fall over ourselves over Pippi Longnagging – at least that’s what our betters command – yet it’s unclear why. Teenagers are notoriously ignorant, and ones spewing recycled Marxism are the worst of all. But the idea is not that this tiresome truant is some visionary thinker. The idea is to leverage her youth and awkwardness to keep you from speaking the indisputable truth that she’s a weird brat who presses for an ideology that butchered 100 million people in the last century. And now, she is hinting she wants to run up that score.

Trump mocked her and a zillion pearls were clutched. How dare you…criticize the Luddite pest who presumes to tell you how to live, leveraging the full benefit of her nearly 17 years of experience to explain to you how stuff should be. How dare you!

Oh, shut-up. Pound sand, you scowling urchin.

The kid is a fanatic, and though that’s no fault of her own – she’s a victim of her pinko exploiters – she is still spewing bloodstained poison.

Bloodstained poison, really? Isn’t she just a nice Eastern Norwegian who wants a better world with love and hugging? Or is she yet another aspiring fanatic ready to kill for the kreepy kommie climate kult?

The other day, this malignant muppet “told cheering protesters … 'we will make sure we put world leaders against the wall' if they fail to take urgent action on climate change.” Now, maybe her English is bad, or maybe she’s just ignorant, but then again the murder of opponents is the Marxist way. Marxist? St. Greta? Well, let’s take a look at what was carved on the tablets she recently brought down from Mount Socialism:...

There are numerous things Trump did and are commendable in my own personal view, but his way of addressing Greta has been very undiplomatic for a head of state no matter how you look at it. I get that America has a lot to lose from slowing down its industry for environmental purposes and it makes good sense to stall more even if the entire world calls for measure to protect the planet. And maybe even Trump truly, deep down from the depths of his heart, honestly doesn't believe in climate change and global warming. But I think it'd be safe to say that calling a girl names isn't the way to go. And that's without any exaggeration. In my view, his stance would deserve to be scrutinized even more.

If his goal is dismissal at least remain silent IMO. It'd help save face.

My thoughts on the young lass.  Go protest where it's needed. China. India.   Not here. Go away kid.

directly or indirectly many other countries are also involved , no one thinks about climate and environment ,what you have did is blaming others for the cause every one should take responsibility towards environment ,

I think everyone should let everyone else take responsibility for the environment... at least when it comes to climate change.

But the tactic of raising up a child as a shield, angling that no one will criticize the child, is quite transparently only a tactic.

Did you see that? This is like a wolf wearing a sheep's wool. This is why you just can't trust anyone  who just suddenly get the spotlight without big monster behind it and they are willing to take down world leaders. Imagine destroying a country because of a lie that being spread. Climate change isn't even real at all. The lies behind it are known to the big leaders and which is why Trump just mock her for believing one something.

I like her audacity to come at international stage, face the behemoth like Trumps and also raise hot concern of climate change. I don’t how true her facts are but indeed she is supporting a very important cause and deserves an honor for raising her voice on behalf of youth of the world. 10 on 10 on her oratory skills and 20 on 10 for her mocking trump through twitter.

Kudos to the girl to come out on world stage & stick to her point inspite all the backslashes and mockery even by behemoths of the world. She indeed talks about the topic which is need of the hour and is needed to be addressed to save our planet for future generations. Beside her war with trump on twitter , I compliment her on her oratory skills , her speeches are all the time supported by facts and numbers. Stay strong ,Greta !

Justin Sun also took part in appreciating a woman who was claimed to be a "poster child" by several crypto communities, by giving a donation of $ 1 million. I agree with what he did, but that does not change the fact that Justin is still limited to a true business opportunity seeker so far, this step also raises the pros and cons in the tron ​​community.

She's doing what needs to be done - popularizing such a crucial and urgent topic (and, of course, backlash would be inevitable at this point)
