Please elighten us why she is clueless then.
Because she has never done anything useful in her short life. If she gets the worst culprits to do something about the issues she drones on about, I may take her a little more seriously.

Greta can’t make the worst culprits change, only you and I can with our vote and where we spend our hard earned.
She has raised the profile hugely with her words and actions, and your words sound bitter and jealous
It does seem to trigger a lot of people that a female teenager has a platform, and that she speaks a lot of uncomfortable truths.
Maybe we should just leave it to everybody else to sort out?
No idea when I began here, was a very long time ago. Previously known as Spirit_of_81. Love cheese, hate the colour of it, this is why it requires some blue in it.

Hahaha you're a joke fella. Imagine being triggered by a young girl.
She has brought climate change, plastic pollution, etc to the attention of a whole generation of people her own age. For example a 12 year old girl from this country has started up her own plastic recycling company on the back of the awareness of Greta Thunberg.
Many climate scientists praise her for the impact she has had. Time magazine voted her as person of the year.
As you say though she's never done anything useful. I'm sure you've done plenty to warrant being listened to.

Someone who speaks a lot of sense but antagonises so many people.
Interesting programme on the World Service earlier, suggesting that the antagonism is often rooted in fear, and that 'deniers' are often persuaded by the overwhelming evidence on some level, but too scared to face the ramifications. Whether this is on account of their own mortality, that of their children, or often just a threat to their lifestyle, the fear manifests itself as trying to shout down things that they do actually believe in. Obvious really, I suppose.

Tell you what. Practise what you preach. Listen to the lass and change your ways.
I'm one of the people who was blamed for getting Paul Cook sacked. PM for the full post.
