I have difficulty understanding why Greta's first port of call wasn't Shanghai. :scratch: 8O


Maybe she doesn't speak Mandarin?
You are right, the young Caucasian girl should not have put her message to the world or predominantly Caucasian countries, she should have directed it mostly at China. I am sure China will change its mind purely from feeling like it is ganged up on rather than pushing for a global movement.

And it isn't like if you go by per capita for population, China is 12th, USA is 3rd and Australia is 2nd just underneath Saudi Arabia.

Discussing whether or not Greta is legit is an excellent way to distract from discussing actual climate change.

I think it's an issue with all kinds of activists.
Activists are not researchers, they typically don't present in-depth, multi-level analyses including many points of view and systematic scepticism required for good research. They usually operate on simplified, often very black-and-white models.



A lot of people miss this point.
A lot of people haven't developed critical thinking skills.
C’est la vie. <shrug>


Your underdeveloped critical thinking skills have led you to question why you need air to breathe. You can die a "free thinker" with everyone else if you're actually trying to win this one.

You can shove this back up where it came from, please.

Obviously you're here to hurt people or you might advocate for some air to breathe. Your jokes are all at someone's expense instead of being funny in their own right & you play it off like you're just kidding. You're getting a lot of kicks & ass pats for making fun of a kid who is actually trying to help you. You're distorting real political terminology into contrived BS to suit a worldview that's indifference to life & death in a nutshell. Reading your thread is like breathing from a tailpipe. As someone who actually conserves resources, I gotta say this is some sad BS.

Entertaining or not, this really has to be locked now.
