This does not change the fact that in Australia there are 48 million kangaroos and in Uruguay there are 3,457,380 inhabitants. So if the kangaroos decide to invade Uruguay, each Uruguayan will have to fight 14 kangaroos.

She's just regurgitating the tired anthem of the alarmists everywhere.
She's not offering sulotions nor ideas on how to solve anything.
If she was 36, people wouldn't give two shits about her or what she's saying.
It's sad though not surprising that adults now look to a sixteen year old for advice...
Why so much hate by the commentators?
Because they are naive, not very intelligent and maybe feel threatened. All this girl reccomends is to listen to the experts.
John John - she is supported and promoted by the elites, which makes a lot of people sceptical of what her purpose is and who benefits from her preaching.
I know
They live and thrive on bitterness and hatred.
Exactly.

@Jay See You are aware, of course, that the United Arab Emirrates produce solar thermal electric power more cheaply than with local gas and oil. Germany is generally cloudy but, multi spectrum solar energy is coming. Texas has banned Tesla car sales. I wonder why?
@Jay See So reducing is just as bad as going all out with your carbon footprint?
She sailed to US. Are you going to give her credit for setting the example you suggest?

Edward Bernays would approve!
I still don’t understand how stopping people going to work unifies society in a common cause.
It causes disruption and forces an issue to be confronted. No one expects those inconvenienced to be happy about it, just to look past their own nose at the wider issues at hand, and if possible effect positive change themselves.
What alternative effective strategy would you suggest, especially as it looks like we have very little time even to mitigate the worse effects of climate change? Extinction Rebellion (XR) do NOT want to inconvenience workers, but they are out of options.
If governments ignore even huge non-disruptive protests, ignore overwhelming scientific warnings from 97% of peer reviewed climate scientists, fail to meet even their too modest 2015 United Nations Climate Change Conference commitments, cut funding climate research, allow fracking, deregulate the fossil fuel industry that's known about this for decades, promote expansion of flying, legal review fails, etc, etc, then peaceful disruptive civil disobedience is the logical next step.
Obviously in every movement there are a wide variety of members, not all of which are great ambassadors for their cause (inevitably the only ones focussed on by much mainstream media & the fossil fuel lobbyists).
However, below is a quote from a protester posting his personal account of why he was protesting, and what happened when he was arrested. facebook.com/JNFClimate/posts/2047647838861263
"So this was my home for a few hours last night. [Photo of a prison cell interior].
XR advises people that they do not have to give their names and should say “no comment” to questions. My position is very different because I am retired, risk little by being arrested and I want my day in court. So I complied fully with all police requests for information.
When my time came, the police approached me and gave me the required number of warnings. I said that I would not move and so they told me I would now be arrested. They asked me to stand up, I didn’t say anything, other than to thank the person next to me for their support. It took 6 officers to pick me up and carry me out of the crowd.
On the edge of Oxford Circus, just getting beyond the main body of protesters, the police nearly dropped me. Head first. One officer was very concerned and asked for help from other officers. I reassured him by apologising and joking that I really need to lose some weight.
As I got to the police van the police asked me if I would walk onto the van. I agreed and apologised for being a nuisance but felt this was something I had no choice but to do.
On the police van there were two other Earth protectors. We all had different ways of handling the situation. Mine was to be quiet, answer all questions when asked and always add that I had no choice but to take this action. I had been forced to do it to prevent mass loss of life.
When I arrived at the police station my two arresting officers became very chatty. There were so many protesters being arrested that the processing would take a couple of hours. I spoke to them about their priorities and how I understood that they would rather be out on the streets protecting the public from knife crime; and they must see me as a real nuisance. But I had plenty of time to explain that: -
• I had never been arrested before;
• I read the science and I know mass loss of life has begun and it will get a lot worse;
• I have tried every lawful action I could possibly think of but none of it has worked;
• I have a 1 year old grandson & I do not believe the youngest members of the police officers’ families and my family can survive what is coming;
• I had helped to launch and helped to pay for a Judicial Review of the government’s CC policies, but the courts had refused to protect my family and the world’s most vulnerable populations; so
• I was left with no other choice but to take this action.
There was a lot of paperwork and questions involved when we stood before the duty sergeant at the desk. Most of it is about the arrested person’s welfare.
During the questioning process I again apologised for the inconvenience & time caused to the police but I had been forced to take this action. In between questions and answers I took appropriate moments to repeat the reasons why I felt I had to do what I did. I was not abrasive; I was polite, respectful and made sure I conveyed the basics of my reasoning.
The sergeant offered me my chance to make the one permitted phone call, which I did to Anita, my wife. Before doing so I confirmed that it would be impossible to say, at this moment, how long I would be detained. The Sergeant said that if he was coming off duty at the same time as I got out he would buy me a pint.
The female arresting officer was free to leave and thanked me and wished me well before she departed. A few minutes later the male arresting officer was told he could then leave and he too wished me well.
I was then off to the cell. The chap who put me in the cell asked if I wanted water and anything to eat. I said I really needed a drink of water but didn’t want to make a fuss by asking for food. He insisted it was no fuss at all, got me the water and later came back with the hot food. Very polite and considerate indeed.
After 30 minutes I was called out to see my appointed solicitor. Bindmans. I reminded the solicitor that he [and] I had worked together before - on the Plan B Earth Judicial Review application. The solicitor told me that all those arrested today were going to be released, “pending further investigation”. He suspected that no further action would be taken and I would probably merely receive a letter through the post with no need to be interviewed, charged or spoken to again. If charged, he would represent me.
I explained that I had done everything lawful I could possible do to try to avoid catastrophic loss of life: - petitions, letters to MPs, government ministers, The Queen, issued tens of thousands of campaigning leaflets, and even tried a Judicial Review, through Plan B Earth & Bindmans. My defence would be that I acted through “necessity” - I know the magistrate’s house is on fire and I need to act to save the lives of his grandchildren on the top floor. I am no different to the fireman who turns up at the scene of the fire, breaks down the front door to go upstairs and save the lives of the children on the top floor.
I want my day in court to explain that to the magistrates, and make the point that I asked the judiciary to act, but it refused to protect my family and the world’s most vulnerable people.
The solicitor thanked me for the actions I have taken in the past and the action I took today to hold Oxford Circus. He was genuinely grateful to all protesters.
At around 11pm I had to see the appointed nurse to be given my medication (I took my blood pressure medication and asthma inhaler with me in case I was arrested). In the presence of the nurse I then took the medication.
I went back to the cells and lay down hoping to get a little sleep. Unfortunately ( ! ), just I was settling down, the police officer returned and said I was to be released.
I went back to the sergeant’s desk where all my belongings were returned to me, I was asked if I could get home (yes), taken down the stairs and released into the loving arms of the XR volunteers who hang around police stations all night, in the cold, waiting for people to be released.
I wanted to get home to Anita so thanked the volunteers for their offer of accommodation in the XR flat and headed to Liverpool Street. I caught the last train and by amazing coincidence I bumped into my son who had to work insanely late in the City. But there was a rail bus replacement service from Shenfield to Southend and so I didn’t get to my station until 02.39 and home by 03.00. So it would have been more sensible to take up the XR offer of a bed at the flat.
I did the March for Life on Sunday, followed by three full days of protesting on the streets, so my joints, particularly my knees, are very painful. I am in quite a bit of pain. I will rest today and return to the streets tomorrow."
It has forced the public's attention on climate change! That is the point.
Research rhe aerosol masking effect. Your ignorance is your shield. GRETA IS DOING WHAT SHE FEELS IS RIGHT. We are in the middlle of the 6th mass extinction on this planet and you're worried about how you're going to get to work.
At least they got the goats to be aware of what waits them
Many are worried about human extinction while ignoring the killing of human life in the womb. I'm all for taking care of the earth, but I believe they are being extreme.
Abortion is not killing. It is saving the woman's life. And climate change is more real than anything else

Even the great Ivan Lendl was not so poker-faced.
We should judge her arguments based on there content not her age. The first end of the world I encountered was the population bomb. The scientific consensuses was that billions would die of starvation in the first world and we would run out of materials like copper and oil. I remember the coming ice age. It is like the little boy who cried wolf. It was a short speech but I did not hear any facts or arguments presented to cause me concern about this new environmental apocalypse.
We should take her age into condieration god dammit. She is 16. She has her life in front of her that we are helping to destroy. I mean i do my bit but there has to be a global consensus on solving this isues and i mean now. Not tomorrow. Not 40 years from now. NOW.
This is a speech to the protestors and not a speech to convince the public. She has reminded us of the facts all the time in her speech such as when addressing the EU. But what she always remind us is to listen to the scientists and not just her for facts and research.
@@brid101286 I understand that it was a speech to other believers. Since I made that comment I have seen several more by her. I still have not seen anything I thought would prove the case to a fair minded skeptic.

Excellent point👍
What is your point? Am I missing something here?
Here's some silly myths and how to counter them. The stuff being posted on this thread is laughable and ancient. The points being made were disproved 20 years ago.
skepticalscience.com/argument.php
George Monbiot is one of my favourite writers on the subject of scepticism (which I'm very guilty of):
"The commonest current excuse is this: “I bet those protesters have phones/go on holiday/wear leather shoes.” In other words, we won’t listen to anyone who is not living naked in a barrel, subsisting only on murky water. Of course, if you are living naked in a barrel we will dismiss you too, because you’re a hippie weirdo. Every messenger, and every message they bear, is disqualified on the grounds of either impurity or purity."
Monbiot is right of course, although I disagree with our chances of adaptation. It is undoubtably good to do what you can in the time we have left. Hopefully you'll feel better, even if it makes no difference in the end.
"There is no going back: the alternative to capitalism is neither feudalism nor state communism. Soviet communism had more in common with capitalism than the advocates of either system would care to admit. Both systems are (or were) obsessed with generating economic growth. Both are willing to inflict astonishing levels of harm in pursuit of this and other ends. Both promised a future in which we would need to work for only a few hours a week, but instead demand endless, brutal labour. Both are dehumanising. Both are absolutist, insisting that theirs and theirs alone is the one true God."
Let's smash capitalism, the evil system that has brought us to this terrible moment. I can't see us developing as a species until we put our animalistic selfish instincts away. We can end it calmly and sanely, even if that's too late for the bio-diversity of this planet. Let it go.
As modern Star DREK is proving, Gene Roddenberry's vision of the future is going to be ignored instead.

Extinction Rebellion's strategy is set up to fail. Responsibility doesn't just fall on the government. Falls on all of us. People complain about the government not doing enough (yes, that's true). However, this is a case of taking things into your own hands and making those changes in your own lives while holding the government's feet to the fire.
Maybe instead of making ridiculous demands, this group should propose introducing workshops into local communities and schools and educate the public on some basic changes that can be made in our own lives. Not this bullshit nostalgia hippie image they're so set on portraying. The 60s were a different time.
Set up to fail because it has been orchestrated by the globalist elites.
They always use middle class actors to push these protests, never the working classes.
It has already partially succeeded Elliott. The objective of declaring a "climate emergency" has been won. The gov't can't undeclare that point unless it accepts that the conditions leading to it have been resolved. That means that further actions can legally be taken by "climate protestors" in future citing the parliamentary vote. It is no small victory, though what happens now is uncertain.
@@remf4519 Thanks, I sometimes post something worthwhile amongst my usual nonsense 😊
@@jorgeborges7707 What happens now is uncertain. You're quite right. I just hope that what is put forth are real pratical steps like the one I mentioned (workshops in local communities and schools). Actually educating people face to face and hand in hand.

You lie - accurate data shows only slow warming since the end of the 'Little Ice Age' era circa 1750AD, the cool era that drove Viking farmers out of southwest Greenland. Basic science of Greenhouse gases shows that carbon dioxide can have only a small effect on climate temperature, because of overlap of spectra with dihydrogen monoxide vapour. Earth's climate was stable in the warmer Medieval Warm Period. The land is greeing, there's more food per person now than ever - but distribution is blocked by tyrannical regimes, life expectancy is higher than ever except under the worst of tyrants. Why is she blathering anti-human nonsense?
if she doesn't save the world there will be nothing left to revolve around her.
1st2 ❤️
See what she thinks when she is 45 yrs old and everyone is still here.
Why couldn't she talk to the people using video conference rather than "travelling" , increasing carbon footprint.
Richard Coeur DeLion - the bigger your carbon footprint the better it is for the planet - CO2 is plant food - the optimum level of CO2 is 1700 parts per million - we are presently only at 400ppm - far too low - we need more plant food not less to improve vegetation.
That's a reasonable point Richard. She did attempt to do it by train which is better than anything else currently.
fr ze ??
Because less people would listen to what you have to say
So how did Greta get to London? Did she walk or cycle to the coast and then swim across to the UK, or did she come over in a rowing boat? Or, more likely, she was driven to an airport, where she boarded a jet airliner which flew her to the UK, where she used a taxi to bring her into London. How much greenhouse gas was discharged into the atmosphere to bring this little preacher over to lecture us? If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem!
Train
Eric Y
She lives in Sweden. There must’ve been some form of air or sea transport involved.
@@jamesblade6684 She refuses to fly.
Eric Y
Good for her. However, she got to the UK somehow. If she travelled by train, boat or taxi, then she created greenhouse gases. Electric vehicles produce emissions indirectly by utilising electricity generated by power stations. Please don’t come back with a lot of guff about wind power - most electricity is still generated by gas or coal. Nuclear is the only truly clean energy source, but l’m sure Wee Greta won’t like that either. Personally l don’t want to be lectured by a preachy little kid, by wealthy gap year students or by virtue-signalling ‘celebrities’. Emma Thompson flew over from LA to take part in the Extinction Rebellion, travelling 5000 miles to tell the little people not to drive to the shops.

She is incorrect. The 1973 oil crisis provoked a massive response to energy usage and there were widespread "appropriate technology" and ecological movements. This was later endorsed by the Carter administration. If we had switched course in those times, mitigation would remain a viable trajectory. Now though, we can only prepare for the extinction of our way of living. Most animal life will not survive and human civilisation could easily end. This phase of hydocarbon use is done, any actions we take now are futile. But thanks for playing!

@@mister2628 This is so blatant! I mean, today she was addressing MPs as if they haven't got enough on their plates. WTF can a 15 year old bring to the conversation that isn't exceedingly

Ferrying this child around the world to promote a political agenda is tantamount to child abuse... poor girl must be knackered...

No, this girl is Greta
But I thought Elon musk was working hard to do something about the crisis ...

She's talking about global climate and Sweden is going down as a country because of multiculti politics. Maybe she should talk about this in the first place? About Swedish children who are taken away from their parents and given to Muslim families?
Did she appear in the recent movie midsommar.
It was shot in sweden where most all the crazies come from.

Care about the environment? Get educated, watch the documentary Cowspiracy!
Also she needs educating properly perhaps she needs a lesson on climate change from the former Greenpeace activist Dr Patrick Moore oh but after that lesson she would have to decline all future publicity stunts.

Oh dear.....what a farce.
You're doing brilliantly Greta.
George Orwell's 1984
1) "Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one's mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them." [
2) "In Newspeak there is no word for 'Science.'"
3) "Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past."
4) “A hideous ecstasy of fear and vindictiveness, a desire to kill, to torture, to smash faces in with a sledge hammer, seemed to flow through the whole group of people ... turning one even against one's will like an electric current, turning one even against one's will into a grimacing, screaming lunatic.”
5) “All beliefs, habits, tastes, emotions, mental attitudes that characterize our time are really designed to sustain the mystique of the Party and prevent the true nature of present-day society from being perceived.”

Governments aren't telling the truth about how bad the situation is becoming. Deforestation is increasing dramatically and threatening many peoples lives. Our partners, Indigenous filmmakers from Midia India have released a documentary alerting everyone to the grave situation faced by their uncontacted relatives the Awá Guajá, from the Araribóia indigenous territory. One of the most endangered in the Amazon. You can watch it here: th-cam.com/video/0ZWMCPaRFu8/w-d-xo.html
Paul,I agree with you on that.
Clearly there is urgent need for as much global cooperation as possible. How this will play out between the hostile factions in the world battling for supremacy is difficult to imagine. If this turns out to be anything like last generation's Ban the Bomb demand for unilateral disarmament it will fail. They should realise economic weakness spells disaster as well. Zealots should tread carefully.
Clearly you have just been fooled.
After wwI it was clear that war was an existential crisis. Men of good will got together and forged an international treaty to end war forever. Every major nation signed, America, France, Germany, The entire first world. It was signed in 1927. I fear the Paris climate treaty will go down history next to that treaty.

The bar you set for hero must be pretty fucking low
The replies to youre comment were written by dickhead's you're the nicest person in the comment so far : )
I have a great idea for you, Greta. Please call up NASA'S chief, and request him to drag a huge asteroid onto the Earth, to start another Ice Age.
Anyone who really cares about anything should get into Politics. Once you are either the Prime Minister, a Cabinet member or even a back bencher you can achieve more in an afternoon than you can of making bland speeches to people who like you or gluing yourself to a window.
@@mister2628 chances are you are stuck to a window somewhere as you've already done the bland speech thing.
She's really good at repeating what her parents told her to say.
Or she is a very intelligent, articulate 16 year old who fights for what she thinks is right in order to save our planet!
@@caith2639 Sure, ''intelligent''. th-cam.com/video/0bwLt_5t73g/w-d-xo.html
@@caith2639 Intelligence is NOT repeating a half century of FAILed predictions. Intelligence is digging for facts and grasping human values - she does NOT. (You should look at the violent t-shirt she and parents were wearing.)
@@caith2639 what do You mean by saving the planet??? The planet doesn't need to be saved, the planet is fine, the climate crisis is not a issue since it doesn't exist, these lunatics are planning to ban Co2, the gas of life.
The mind control is real
Indeed. The matrix has you now.
The behaviour of governments and businesses is driven by the behaviour of consumers. If Greta Thunberg is truly sincere then she will show everyone the way by making a pledge: a pledge to restrict the amount of red meat she eats each week, to restrict the number of holiday flights she will take in the future, the amount of clothes she will buy, the number of cars her family will run, the plastic-packaged food she will purchase in the future and above all else, she should a make a pledge to restrict the number of children she will have in the future, because it is the growth in the human population that is driving climate change and extinction. Let’s see Greta Thunberg show everyone the way - let’s see her make a pledge.
Greta is a vegan.
Making a massive list of specific demands of her to do more before you take her message seriously is just an excuse to take minimal action yourself. She travelled for 2 days to London by train. She's sacrificing her energy, time and her schooling to make a difference. What are you doing?
Individual action is important, but it needs governmental action on an international scale like WWII to meet this challenge in time.
I don't own a car, I use public transport whenever possible, I haven't flown for years, I only buy clothes when my old ones are falling apart. I recycle. I don't eat much meat, have no children. IT'S NOT ENOUGH.
What an excellent point. I'm sure this is actually a ploy by her and her ilk to prevent you from eating as much steak as you might otherwise, so she can have it all.
We should demand a blood pact and access to all her receipts for meat and clothes at a minimum, before the rest of us do anything.
We all do what we can. And some do nothing. With the excess of positive feedback loops it's probably too late. This summer or next, kaboom. Methane, mercury, dying oceans, it's not just humanity that is dying. It's all life on earth.
Hello Eric Y. Let me point out that I’m not the one protesting, Greta Thunberg is, so she needs to set an example first and then lecture second; I’m sorry but words are not enough. As for my own lifestyle, I walked the two and a half miles to and from my school. I cycled the four miles to and from my place of work. The Mini I bought new is now 14 years old. It is far more environmentally friendly to run a well maintained car than to replace it with a new one. I rarely eat red meat; I’ve only ever been into McDonalds 3 times in my life, God forgive me, and I have not fathered any children. I am not a saint but I’m not the one demanding change without first demonstrating a willingness to change. The most effective measure Greta Thunberg’s generation can take is to restrict the number of consumers they will bring into this world. Making a pledge would be a good place to start.@@ericy4522
If you train kids well from kindergarten you get them to act like this, now let us all stop everything in developed countries and see how the undeveloped countries help out LOL
