Greta Thunberg & Svante Thunberg - Straight Talk
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 ธ.ค. 2018
- Greta Thunberg, our little climate giant, is joined by her father, Svante, to talk about her path from an unknown Swedish school girl to an internationally recognized climate leader. If governments don't give a damn about her future, why should she give a damn about their laws! Svante discusses how Greta's passion for the truth about climate has changed the family's lives...and the world. Very compelling.

When I was a child we were told repeatedly that we were due for another ice age. As a teenager the world was told there were giant holes in the atmosphere and we were going to die. Now as a adult we are told that the world is going to end in 12 years do to CO2 . So which fear should I really be worried about? We should be more worried about is the loss of fertile land, forests, habitats, and the ever growing abundance of garbage, polluted lands and water.
JemDandi - Finally, some common sense in these comments.
It is all to distract you from the fact that you are being used as tax cattle, cannon fodder, and a consumer unit.
I agree with last sentence, and climate change will affect all these areas ( except perhaps garbage). The hole in the ozone layer is one of the success stories of international action and cooperation on phasing out CFCs. Now it only concerns parts of Australia. I used to live in Tasmania, and people are very aware of this! The critical aspect of climate change are tipping points of no return.
JemDandi overpopulation is the cause of all of our planets problems! If anyone truly gave a dam they wouldn't breed! But the "I wants" will never stop breeding! So this beautiful planet & all it's amazing species are doomed!
It's all connected.
Money controls everything
money destroys our planet!
always money
What ever happened to acid rain? That was a big thing in the 90ties
It’s still here and definitely worse
Cured by global warming!
Lol. I remember that.
I'm a retired window cleaner. Acid rain does etch glass.
I'll never figure out why the billionaires (you know, those people with a thousand million dollars) are not offering rewards or creating contests for innovative solutions to the mess we have made and they have grossly profited from. Guess they need to save their money in case of an emergency other than the one we are in right now.
You are right, there should be really big events, like the Academy Award ("Oscar") or big stadium spectacles where this topic is the most important thing discussed.
There is a difference between "worth" and accessible cash. Most of those billionaires have many restrictions placed upon them. They do what they can with what they have. I find comments like yours are made very often but the reality isn't like people might believe. It isn't all champagne and hookers.
cognitive dissonance. Bill Gates is doing that, but mostly in a for-profit capitalist way. he's never going to stop thinking in that way.
Quite simply, they are profiting from the earth's destruction. My guess is when it's ruined so badly they can't make any more money from it they will change directions and make money cleaning it up.
morninboy - Ask yourself, what is the mentality that drives your average billionaire?
Let's keep working on this problem. Failure is not the answer.
Interesting that on the panel only Greta had a reusable water bottle.
Yup and that’s the real rub: We need to all be acutely aware that all aspects of life need to be reevaluated in regards to their impact on the environment. It will differ by country, of course, but everything we are currently doing has repercussions.
Local Tv news should add the same amount of weather reports as they do with political !
Severe weather Europe has soo many reports and its ignored. You have to decide to go on their page and that is wrong.
It would be great if train companies would start improving timetables, routes, prices. Travelling through Europe on a train is still extremely expensive and the search engine is also limited to find tickets only 2-3 months in advance.
I was also depressed for many years - at the age of 26 - this was 1993 - I gave my useless diploma to my university and went to south germany to a "bio" i.e. "organic" goats - and cow farm and worked there one long summer in the mountains ("Alpe Sonnhalde, near Oberstaufen-Steibis) - after I was co-founder of the first german LETS (Local Employment and Trading System) in my hometown Halle/Saale. I did only "eco" stuff all the years after and slowly managed to recover. I think today that I was suffering the same pains like mother earth. When I started to help her - she helped me to give sense to my live - which made me healthier, happier I even became a father of two boys. Man of two women.... I understand what Greta wants and dreams and suffers....
So Fridays around the globe should be a National day for Change for our Planet for ALL life in every school or collage and Uni.
I love this idea!
Great idea
The total frustration Greta experiences with the inaction and tone deafness of the adults is expressed very well in this video. Thanks for posting it.
Peter, then what do we do with that? What do each of us do with that information? What have you done? I'm happy to describe (or brainstorm) potential courses of action, should you be interested...
Chris I would also like to add to this that less driving and more flying along with vegan diet also helps.. this is what I currently do. We need to be doing things that are uncomfortable.. our westernized societies are addicted to comfort and instant gratification
Keeling curve: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keeling_Curve . "a graph of the accumulation of carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere based on continuous measurements taken at the Mauna Loa Observatory on the island of Hawaii from 1958 to the present day." Albedo is extent to which solar radiation is reflected.
Be the change.
I am off grid. I don't own a car. I recycle assiduously. I will continue this low impact lifestyle inspite of the fact it's just too late. My god I love this intellegent extraordinary young woman whose generation has been cheated out of their birth rite by unchecked capitalism and their little greedy lackies. Support and follow this old soul.
Well expressed.
Even though it is too late I think it is important to keep on acting daily with one's own convictions. At least we can shamelessly look ourselves in the mirror. So, keep (re)cycling, keep walking and taking public transport. You are not alone.
For what do you think it's "too late"?
For the insects, the birds, your nation?
Whoever got money, calls the shots. They have authority, like oil companies.
"One way for people to realize the consequences is if the media were to really write about it and treat it as a crisis"
That is absolutely true but telling the truth doesn't sell, fantasy does.
I agree - stop putting this news under the sub-heading "environment", next to "football" or "culture". The environment is the real news.
Go outside kids and planting a tree every day in wherever that able to do.
Letting the city yard go to seed, then scything it down and composting locally seems to make sense, but that may garner hefty fines from benighted governments salivating over more revenue to squander.
YES! That is Greta's message. DO SOMETHING! Plant something! :-) !Saludos desde Mexico!
great idea, but don't forget to take care of it once you have planted it.. most kids cant remember to make their beds before going to school let alone give a life long commitment to a tree that does not offer some kind of instant flashy return.
Is there a politician that even speaks the truth I really don't think so
When I was a child I was told that the earth was warming up, that was 50 years ago now. I’m not sure why you were told of another ice age when you were a child
Because scientists don't know as much as people think they do and theories are always shifting. Give it another 20 to 40 years and they'll switch back to climate cooling since we are about due for another ice age.
Yep, in the 1970s children were being told that we were approaching another ice age and that overpopulation was going to strip the world of all rhe natural resources and that we were all going to die. Whoops, guess the so called experts got it wrong.
Yes get out of your comfort zone. As Richard Oppenlander says we are Comfortably Unaware, the title of one of his books. Catch him speaking on line . ESP his speech to the E U parliament in Brussels. Also see Sailesh Rao at the same place.
I'm with you on most of this. But you can't drive cars? I have solar on my house which supplies 100% of my power including my electric car. THAT is how you can drive a car and still be responsible. I got a 26% rebate on my solar and a $7,500 tax credit on my electric car. I see people on a regular basis here in the USA driving big 4-wheel drive trucks to work, when they could just as well be driving a small commuter car. that same person will complain about gas prices going up by $0.50. they paid more for the truck than they would an electric car and solar. the real reason is not that they can't, it's that they just don't care! Such people ironically often have "trump" stickers on their vehicle. Makes me furious.
My family drives a big truck, we need it for our business, without it we couldn't feed ourselves or participate in society. An electric car couldn't function the way we need it to. You can't judge anyone you see by looking at them, especially their car. It sounds like your car is more of a status symbol to you than those people's so called unnecessary trucks you see.
Also, it's not that we don't care about electric cars, but they can't tow a trailer among many other things. Trucks are generally working tools, where your car isn't.
Not covering climate change breaches journalism's golden rule "if it bleeds, it leads."
Lets see. They want a carbon tax to be redistributed to offset the higher costs associated with renewable energy. I thought the cost of renewable energy was on par or cheaper that coal and Natural gas? Isn't that what they have been telling us??
Your mind works wrong. Any animal do it better than us.:They do not use fire and live with all consequences with nature.
and ships
we hope that the climate will not be completely ruined. The bees have also disappeared insanely. and so with the disappearance of the plants when the bees are not pollinating them
Very good but very sad too.
Sad in what way sam? What might be done to make the story less sad? Is it possible to alter the outcome? If so, what actions might lead to an alternate future? Should people begin to act in those alternative ways?
@@chris4973 It's possible to be sad AND take action, Chris.
As a kid in the 1970's, you would always see bees, wasps, butterflies, and many other insects in the summertime. IT IS VERY VERY FRIGHTENING how you rarely see these same insects anymore. The planet is dying. We are putting profit and big businesses before this beautiful planet. It is sad, but I believe that the human race will leave it to late to save the planet.
Yes, I remember taking road trips and having to stop to clean the windshield because of so many dead bugs. So sad how we've taken for granted the natural world. So disconnected. We need indigenous thinking and wisdom now more than ever.
Every Autumn, thousands of monarch butterflies still pass through my backyard on their way to warmer weather and the bees are everywhere thank God.
Bees and wasps and geckos in my garden.🐝🐜🐞🕷🇦🇺
We need to increase biodiversity in agriculture land!
Donald Sunny where do you live? Cause I still see all of that here.......
There are people who earn $ 1 million on TH-cam, but others who work hard and just make little money.
Rich people are getting richer and poor are getting poorer because they are less economically viable.
And instead of demonstrating there, so that the environment can be saved even more efficiently, you demonstrate ONLY for the climate. This brings ONLY one thing with it: The poor would be forced to give more money to rich people. And you are so blind and just do not see it. Or you do not want to have it true.
And:
The trouble with all these humanity saving proclamations is that corporate big business has no intention of reducing their massive profits. The airlines want more flying customers, as do the gas and auto companies that want to sell us more gas and more cars. They have no plans of making less money. These corporate CEOs are the ones these activists should be speaking to, rather than the general public that are forced to pay inflated gas prices so they can drive to work to pay more inflated bills from yet another wasteful, greedy corporation. Fabulous eye-opening book, The Waste Makers, by Vance Packard.
Bingo,,, and the solution is>>>>????
Absolutely
My dream is for Greta and David attenborough to have a conversation and an important dialog
I'd love to see those two talking.
Greta has been featured in one documentary narrated by david Attemborough
So would I -Margaret
Wouldn't that be wonderful! We can live in hope, but, like all of us, they can not work non-stop 24/24 - Margaret
I would really like to get some answers on what our energy supply will look like in the future.

And these children that you spit on as they try to change their worlds; are immune to your consultations, they are quite aware of what they are going through - David Bowie
(Breakfast club)
This is such a lovely accent.
Thank you!
Who are these people addressing? The greatest culplrits of increasing carbon footprint are the rich and industrialisation ...
They are addressing everyone.
If you want climate change YOU need to stop driving vehicles, wearing shoes, buying things covered in excessive amounts of plastic, don't use AC or heaters don't buy cell phones either. The point is we are all the issue, we're overpopulated and consuming too much.
The sad fact is, the media, with all its resources does not think that putting climate crisis on the front page will sell. That is the sad reality. It is all about the bottomline, money. For humanity to survive, peoples around the world to take it upon themselves to bring awareness and urgency of this crisis.
Not only that, if people buy it and wake up and act accordingly, then people will stop buying crap which the economy is making money off. THAT'S the real fear! The economy is making so much profit by selling us useless, unhealthy and double packaged crap and if we took the crisis seriously we would stop buying that shit, and they would lose their money...
Capitalism, it's fucking us all over
I guess it depends whether the media thinks its job is to actually inform people, or to make the most money it can. You are right that if it intends only to maximise income then (at least for a while) ignoring this some more will do that. But many journalists _do_ want to inform people - that's why they became journalists, and this is a huge story/movement.
Most of the people knows in one way or another what is going on, but we’re not ready to change our ways, change brings a lots of inconvenience, adjustments and sacrifice. We’re not in a hurry to face those challenges yet, for the simple reason that we’re not experiencing the full force of destruction that climate change is bringing to us. Many can argue that climate change happened before, but one thing for sure, adding fuel to the fire is never a good idea.
Excellent questions from the lady,
Härligt
Modern agriculture uses tonnes of chemicals made from oil and gas plus diesel in farm machinery.
To reduce your carbon footprint you must grow your own vegies.
Where are the new cheap recyclable batteries to make solar and wind usable.
coming. but RE is already "usable" without batteries. Putting solar on your roof will dramatically reduce your personal FF use and undercut the FF industry. We can go to high levels of RE on our grids before storage becomes economically vital.
Do something anything everyday and we can make a difference!
the lack of action from the rich and powerful is shocking. they HAVE to act now because very soon climate change will be irreversible
Andy Yep. We only have 10 years.
Do I detect hints that that Greta has shamed some of them to act?
What straight talk?
A dor, desespero e incredulidade que sinto há muitos meses e que, agora, sei tem voz activa e é ouvida. Começou a surgir a esperança. O desespero e o nó na garganta deram lugar à gratidão e à garra. Obrigada, Greta! Obrigada Svante e Malena. Obrigada Stuart e Victoria. Obrigada António Guterres.Sinto-me acompanhada. Sei como posso inspirar mais os meus filhos. Consigamos unir-nos e contagiar os corações mais impermeáveis.
Thank you for this video. It is so good to hear Greta and
her father speak. Great point about ‘we have no budget’
Perhaps you could do a couple of videos on that topic?
Or, perhaps you already have?
Greta, there were 10.000 people marching in Lausanne Switzerland on the 15 th of March. Thank you for having started this movement of raising the awareness.
Hi, couple of thousand people interested in the fate of the planet :) :/
thank you
Lots of respect from Belgium :-)!
Thank you for this interview, I will be sharing
we must all do what we can do spread the word of Greta Thunberg
It's all very well and good what she is saying but I'm wandering if she realizes when she says "practice what you preach"and then all these mass rallies taking place around the world for the cause of climate change, the amount of energy consumed for them must be colossal.
The only way any progress will be made is if we really feel it will effect our children.. The problem that needs to be talked about us that our jobs/economy now is based on a system that takes from the earth constantly. So what economy and jobs will replace it?
Or is the answer no jobs, just live your life with barter and trade?
So any job that is paper shuffling, those people need to get out and make some thing by hand ..
Once industrialization has come into play, the genie was out of the bottle
Plant some trees 🌲
A child misses a year of school because she is depressed and concerned with a ghost issue.
And never mind with the " climate change is real" tome. Of course it is. We exist on a living ancient stone.
Change is a function of all life.
Fly airlines that act to reduce their carbon footprint! Vote with your choices.
Stop flying is just impossible. This plant is SO VERY HUGE, how you gonna solve the problem?
I wanted to learn more about Stuart Scott, and a quick google turns up the following. This dedicated activist can use our help as he battles cancer. For those who can afford to chip in, now is the time! www.gofundme.com/f/fund-for-stuart039s-healing?+share-sheet
It's not THAT difficult to understand climate change - all you need to do is take the time - to READ / RESEARCH / THINK (it's all there on internet). ie you need to sacrifice some time away from time wasters like: social media; Reality TV; stupid TV programs like cooking / gardening (just for a short while). Devote a little time and energy to it. Get informed.
Thank you, Syzygy!
eating meat is not bad. its the quantity that each people consumes that is the problem. and also changing to electrical cars is not the problem. the problem is how often people change their car in nowadays. each car you dispose has batteries oils and many other staff that pollute the enviropment. so keep your old car until it becomes a piece of real junk. that is how we minimize our footprint. by recycling and consuming what we really need. you dont need a new smartphone every two years.
Eating meat is exactly the reason we are here. Our taste for animals and their byproducts has driven us into the mass production of "meat" and dairy. Animals don't grow fast enough so we inject them with steroids. Cows don't make enough milk and so we feed them hormones. We now have factory farms that produce more pollution than all the automobiles pollution combined. We can all start by changing out diets, that should be the first thing we do as a whole. I know most people are afraid to give up eating animals and drinking their milk, but we do not need to eat them or drink their milk. We do not need to mass produce animals for out food needs anymore, those days are over. We do not live in caves, we are not hunters anymore. We can farm plants we and the earth would be better off for it. Unless you are in a place on this earth where you need to hunt to survive. Eating meat, drinking their milk and eggs it is completely unnecessary and just cruel.
The Tesla robotaxi will be a reality soon. One robotaxi will be equal 10 private vehicles as most vehicles are only driven 2 hours a day.
Es gibt ein Gerichtsverfahren, was alles entlarvt.
finally, the first audience question puts the 'stop eating meat' and' keep fossil fuels in the ground' messages in one sentence. They are the same message, totally interlinked.
Lycka till fina Ni!
🍃❤🍃❤🍃❤🍃
Uma saudação à jovem Greta grande lutadora do Ambiente! Deus a abençoe e guarde pela sua luta! Todos nós precisamos de salvar a biodiversidade do Planeta.
And noone ever talks about population control as a solution. why can't people just stop breeding so much!
As our numbers & our consumption increase the life chances & health of many children are compromised. Education about & access to modern methods of family planning is essential. A girl with 12 years of education will have up to 5 fewer children in her life-time. - Margaret
Unfassbar, wie wir verblödet werden!😱
For of one with Greta thunbert love my beautiful spirit sister n family peace as we fight hate love all thanks for everything your doing 🌳🌱❤3
Stopping flights or not eating meat is not a sustainable solution by itself.The solution is simple, DECARBONIZE the climate. Help African and southern hemisphere countries to forest their lands abundantly cos their climate allows the trees to be evergreen throughout all seasons and the trees can then sink the carbon down. And Make those countries rich in an exchange for their huge forest reserves and their contribution for the climate. Meanwhile replace the fossil fuel based technologies with renewable energy sources and subsidize those technologies.
Thank you Joe
Stopping flights and not eating meat is just a way for people to feel like they're contributing while still going on about their normal lives.
Maybe that seems small but I love her reusable water bottle, it may seem small but you can start small JUST DO SOMETHING!
I agree too :-)
Many good points.Air travel and vacations overseas are for the well off.Grey hound bus is what the common man uses in the USA.My family is lucky to own one old car.It is easy for the haves to pontificate on giving up what they don't really need like extra cars and eatting meat.

embarking on the road "The budget is spent. There is no carbon budget. We are borrowing from future generations. We are making their lives much more difficult."
This means stopping technology. Technology taught us about climate change. Throw the baby out with the bath water?
I found the vegan diet every hard
"We do not inherit the Earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children." Iroquois Proverb
Nice way to look at it from a different perspective. I get the point. Though I choose to not have children. And that also makes my footprint smaller. But it does not mean that I don't care about the next generation
Terminate all nuclear weapons, remove your ego, the greedy ones has to look them self in the mirror and ask themself " what the hell am i doing" with this mindset by doing what is right will save the world. Humanity needs to wake up before it's too late. Being unselfish and spread love and peace..no more wars is from my perception the right thing to do. Adult people are acting like they have no brain..braindead? Bullying a little girl. Hate will feed more hate. I think this child is brave.
Totally agree.
You remind back in the 1960 PEACE LOVE AND ROCK& ROLL. Like John Lennon and Yoko Ono. Peace baby.peace.
GOD is in control I believe he will not let it get to that point but haven said this it we should not bring it to that point we should all strive to make the environment cleaner that is common sense .😲
Very impressive grasp of the facts. I'm a massive climate nerd and have spent a lot of time educating myself, but I couldn't tell you off the top of my head which year we passed 350ppm. Greta knows :-)
I love her zero bullshit approach. I have slowly been getting blunter over the last decade, increasingly questioning people's behaviour to their faces, but I still aspire to Greta-level blunt. We still have an awful lot of people to push over the 'personal conversion' line. Too many have no sense of urgency.
Proud daughter to proud parents
I feel inspired by Greta. I will have to take my own steps towards change and show the route myself. For sure , I don’t know , people don’t know how crucial the problem is . Greta ´s commitment will be talked about with my students in the E nglish classes . What can I do ? This Is the question I get stuck in my mind. It would be a shame if I like appreciate then forget. Greta’s photos are memorable . I feel little by her side. I’m over 50 . I´m entering an era of deconstruction of bad habits. Besides Greta I have the pictures of the kogis in my mind from A moving and an alarming documentary : rendez vous en terre inconnus. I thank all the people who do their very best to wake us up.
Salvanovitch Rosa allow your students to strike and talk with other teachers about the crisis. Live sustainable and low carbon (for example eating a plant based diet). Pressure political leaders by for example joining a group like extinction rebellion.
She's Absolutely correct, now the actions will begin at an individual level.
an open solution for every human being on the planet : to reduce our carbon footprint and toxic footprint of any kind to zero, we should plan a living in 100% self sufficient, regenerative and sustainable Eco-village communities. This is completely possible if we have a will. It is practical.
this is great but we also need to organise on a local town village n city level.
create some sort of concerned citizen climate crisis council to work with local authorities to make our communities more resilient n eco friendly.
get the farmers involved. talk about how biodynamic farming for all its criticisms is superior to organic re refertilising soils. uk has 30 to 40 harvests left. worldwide mass starvation in 10years.
we need to grow our own veggies a la ww2 dig for britain mentality.
community gardens for struggling families dependant on foodbanks (cereal jam n bread doesnt give a child nutrients to support normal development)
if we plant food forests now, they will b producing in 10yrs when we will need them.
uk only produces 40% food it consumes
we wont b getting the other 60% from other countries in 10yrs^^
the poorest 60% of uk will be starving in 10yrs time if we dont act now to secure food security
#savegreta
I like eating meat, driving my car, and flying to vacation spots. Most people do. Why should we have to sacrifice our comforts that took thousands of years of hell on earth to gain? All we have to do is drastically reduce the population. Our planet was conveniently engineered to filter fossil fuel waste. Just not in the quantities we produce it, because of so many people. So many mouths to feed are cleaning out the oceans, the forests, etc. The real issue isn't even on the table. If it isn't soon we don't stand a a chance of averting the ecological catastrophe on the horizon and the unimaginable suffering that will come with it.
Is it such a sacrifice to eat less meat, drive less and fly less? - Margaret
The problem is we would need a mass movement to change the action of our politician, and every mass movement in the past was for more, more job money, more liberties, more justice.
This time it has to be for less, less meat, less kids, less car's, less phones, less holidays oversee, people will not go to the streets to demand to have less.
Exactly. Obviously what we UNPAID activists HAVE been DOING and SAYING since 1980 (at least *I* have).
More meat, faster cars, and less BS like climate change hoaxes for the gullible and naive.
I have heard Gretas message and I have changed. I no longer eat meat/dairy. My car sits in my driveway. My bank account is growing because I am not participating in excessive consumerism. I’m doing my best. However, I would like to see the beautiful world I live in. I am willing to take the train, but I would also like to see Europe, Asia, and Africa. Is there a practical alternative? I am not asking in a sarcastic way. I really want to know. I want to do my part.
By Sail Boat!
Make your contribution but dont limit yourself to go to the extreme edge. If you have to travel via plane/train, do it with no regret
Going by boat may not seem practical, but you might actually enjoy the journey and time on the ocean much more than anticipated.
The way we farm animals AND plants is the problem. Factory farming - even if you are vegan - is not going to work. We need to grow plants AND animals together LOCALLY. This is how nature works, and we have to live within nature.
Grasslands are huge carbon sinks - if we have large herds of herbivores roaming around every year or two. Grassland has more carbon per acre than forest - grass is 80% root. th-cam.com/video/wgmssrVInP0/w-d-xo.html
So true
Neil Blanchard 1st time i seen another say this
thankyou
You are for a hollistic approach, which i think is good, but take into consideration that most of the humans are already vegetarians or pescetarians and it would make a huge negative impact if they started eating as much meat as the western world.
A strong message. Daughter and father together. Greta who educated her father.
2:40 emotional story
Thank you Greta, with love and support.
Actually, my dads local church mentioned miss Greta Thunberg!
OK good to know
Your dad is attending a good church.
It's wonderful to see Greta's father being so supportive of her decision to speak out for the environment. While not all parents are able to take time off work or alter their careers to reduce their carbon footprint drastically due to financial necessity, those that can should take a page from what the Thunbergs are doing. And everyone should do what they can to learn more about climate/environmental issues and change their lifestyle as best they can. I don't see a parent manipulating his daughter at all. It is apparent to me that Greta herself is in charge --- getting her parents to become vegetarian/vegan, stop flying in airplanes and instead take trains, subways, buses. At the end of this video we see her helping her father make the point "practice what you preach".... what a determined, smart young lady. I'm glad she energizes current activists as well as the ordinary public. I hope she presses on, continues to pressure the powerful with her straight forwardness and doesn't take to heart all the cruel lies being thrown at her.
The world have to be change, humanity have to be change. The concept of money don't work at all. We need to build and live toghetter as one nation without the concept of money, just like humanity once started. We need just have to build very hightech creations and transportation in a new way with solar, rain and wind energy but windenergy from strings who turn the vibration of the wind into energy without windmills, just like they would do with the Dutch Windwheel Rotterdam (Google is your friend). We need more nature, also in city's. No animal murder or captivity, and stop animal breeding.
We need stop flying on fuel, and we need to build very save Hyperloops around the world which will travel on levitation faster then a plane as soon as possible. Make it happen, we have the technology, we have the possibility and we have the knowledge. All we have to do is put the hands together as one world nation. Build it, don't buy because money only destroy humanity and the world. The whole world needs to be treat equal. No poor poeople, no rich people, all equal! Ban money from the world.
And maybe my English is not good enough, it is good enough to understand my message and that last thing is what counts.
For Public (and NGO) News Media : you need heros, solution stories, equip readers for action. We have tons of teen hero stories and guidance on the full scope of citizen powered action. Book w heros: charity.youth-leader.org, citizen climate action : www.cgrising.com/climate-crisis-resilient-regions/ We have hero speakers live meetings for schools, education programs, for self-organized badass high impact student clubs etc ... the solutions and support are available. What's needed is the DEMAND. You ppl talk only about the problem and industry solutions and advocacy. You offer no tangible YOUTH & ADULT ACTION SOLUTIONS transforming school, community, society. You don't even have the right antenna to DETECT the solutions, since you keep ignoring mega youth leadership that's already in 12,000 schools, and the transfromative approach described for climat crisis resilient regions above. You still think on the Operating Syste of infantile voters on the unsustainable society. To shift to the new society, you have to act on the Operating System of the new ABLE, ACTIVE, CARING CITIZEN... displayed by the teen heroInes in our stories. That ignorance of yours is even more frustrating for us folks with the SOLUTONS & SUPPORT.
is Greta's father describing a divine revelation? Isn't Greta the new Joan of Arch

wish adults would join the children in these strikes and take a day off work
Watch this space Sunday will become a day of rest for everyone
Ich kann kaum glauben das ein fünfzehn-jähriges Mädchen das alleine schafft auch mit der Unterstützung der Eltern. Das ist so heftig. Diese Rede von der Kleinen, ich habe sie mir mehrmals angehört (einfach großartig), sie liest ab, ja aber wie sie diese Rede trotzdem rhethorisch vorbringt, ist unglaublich impressive. Und dann hat sie auch noch zu hause diesen Streik organisiert an ihrer Schule. Respekt an dieses Kind oder diese junge Erwachsene.
@14:53 "...I think humanity has to rebel against the regime of money". I absolutely agree. For me it seems that using money, as the abstract system of value it is, makes it easier for us to alienate ourselves from the consequenses of our actions. It mimics the darwinian mechanics from which we arose: I think we can do better. This is why I support the state/public media like Svante is referring to, for instance SVT or NRK. The state can be an ideal organization, the corporate has a harder time in this respect as they would be outperformed in the pursuit of money.
It's so easy to critisize but a pointless and unhelpful exercise unless you are going to offer a viable alternative.
@@jonathan1391544 Yes, I agree, but I am also pointing out a direction: We can organize our efforts to make a better society for everyone. International organizations like the UN can do it, and states can do it. That's why I pointed out the state media SVT (Sweden) and NRK (Norway), since money driven media was the topic.
