She announced she will be taking part in climate protests in Glasgow next week, also inviting Glasgow workers who plan on striking to join her in the march.
The 18-year-old activist confirmed she would be in Glasgow during Cop26 to take part in the protests on Friday, 5 November.
What has strikers got to do with Climate change? I mean, I admire her stance, but she isnāt doing herself any favours with this.
She can shout and scream about climate change as much as she likes. Until she gets herself off to that part of the world where the major polluters live and shouts at them Iāll ignore her. Sheās no better than those other idiots who keep blocking the bloody roads and the other group who are at this moment causing problems at an oil refinery. The sooner these work shy waste of space get out of peopleās lives the better. The climate has probably changed more times than we could possibly know and no amount of protesting will change a thing. What we seriously need to look at is the unrelenting growth of the human race.
At least sheās out there doing something about it.
Something has to happen and why shouldnāt our generation have to put up with a bit of inconvenienceā¦.we caused the mess the worlds in ā¦.we are the throwaway generation .
Yes Greta fight for your future.
Before you all start shouting I donāt expect many to agree with me going by whatās already been written on this thread !
I do agree somewhat, Rippleā¦I do like Greta, and think she is doing good things in making people sit up and take notice. Certainly annoying those that ācouldā do something about it anyway. I just donāt know what her point is when she is marching with the strikers. These are people looking for a better pay deal, which is an entirely different kettle of (unclimatised) fish. Its almost like she is protesting for the sake of it and thereby diluting(?) the point of her being there.
That is true, yes. If I wasnāt such a wuss about crowds right now, I would like to go along to one or two events. But itāll be pelting down now doubt
It didnāt even occur to me that she would be worth anything because she is so youngā¦howeverā¦this site
Saysā¦In 2020, the Right Livelihood Foundation awarded Greta $102,062 for the Alternative Nobel Prize. Similarly, the Swedish teenager received $1.15m from a Portuguese rights award.
The last time I looked, we as a nation weāre among the lowest in contributing to global pollution. So I say again, why donāt these work shy protesters go to where the problem is and march down their streets. The simple answer they would get moved on very quickly and very harshly and they know that. Plus I see the motorway suicide squad is on duty again. It appears that whoever is directing these idiots is determined to get one of them killed to keep them in the headlines.
