@Kevin Duggan you seem smart enough, have you read the ipcc report yet? Have you made up your own mind after reviewing the facts? You are right about the ice age, you just forgot when.. First we will have many heat waves and coldsnaps that will create massive food shortage, then sea level rises, that insurances won't pay for and THEN, when the remains of the human species are trying to organize and regroup after all the storms, THEN the new ice age will hit.. Nahh, just kidding, we probably won't survive to see the ice age 😉
No, it is not. Dead bodies will more likely be everywhere than hope. Statistically speaking, a government needs to kill 3 - 30 million people to get the rest to act in a way that is against self-interest and for the "collective good". Check communism and its history.
Wind Turbines life expedience is only on average 12 years. Fossil fuels are needed to build them and then there is the problem of land fills to story the broken ones. Solar Panels life is an average of 5 years fossil fuels used for there construction, old panels in land fills contaminate ground water.
It's because human brain have 2 parts, one is instinctive/savage/emotion and the other is the analytic part. The numbers and facts from climate change only affects the analytic part of the brain. However the emotional part, which governs our behavior, is not affected. We know underneath that we can't escape math or cause-and-effect reasoning but if the bad thing from climate change sounds so distant, we can't relate.

As an individual if you want to do your best to help fight climate change, you can: 1. Be vegan 2. Re-cycle and reuse more 3. Choose green/renewable energy alternatives as much as possible 4. Plant trees 5. Adopt and endorse eco-friendly lifestyle 6. Live minimal, save water, save resources and minimize your waste 7. Educate yourself This not only helps the planet but also saves your money, and benefits your health and lifestyle.

Big Oil has known about global warming through hydrocarbon emissions for about 70 years. So long as they get richer they don't care. Politicians who depend on Big Oil for campaign donations won't do anything about this issue. (Trump just revoked the power of the state of California to cap auto emissions. Because California is such a huge part of the market, since the 1970s, the entire auto industry has built all cars slated for sale in America to Californian standards. By scrapping those standards Trump has basically changed it so all new cars in the US will pollute more. This is going in the OPPOSITE direction of what we need . . . .)

Yes... She is young still and not desensitized to things by the way the majority thinks... She learned one day and understood that our way of living was causing a mass extinction. She saw this as a big deal and figured the whole world would be talking about it, but noticed they weren’t..noticed no one was taking action..her reality changed, her view of the world became hopeless I imagine, and this triggered sadness, despair... it’s not a joke only because you can’t understand it.

In fact, modern factory farms emit far more greenhouse gases than you can imagine. Not only the buses you catch, cars you drive, planes you take, the meat served on your table also contributes greatly to global warming. If you have to catch buses, drive cars and take planes, then try to eat less meat to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases.
@knowledge share I mean, cattle, chicken, and pig themselves emits greenhouse gases like CH4 and CO2 etc. Yet self-powered clean energy is a very great way to reducing greenhouse gases emission. :)

Sadly Sophie, Greta is a tool being used to change human society using climate alarmism. This has nothing to do with saving the planet. Research Agenda 2030.
It's like a failing team project: you get the panicky, incompetent one throwing a tantrum for the competent one to get to work; but the competent one finds it too difficult and so procrastinates despite a looming deadline. The rest of us just expects the work to be done at some point.
Panicky and incompetent? She just turned 18, and she’s already pushing to do as much as she can possibly do. I’d call her competent and the ‘competent’ incompetent.
We need more people and kids who care for their future to "throw tantrums" The "competent ones", she actually told about them (were you listening?), politicians and society are stopping them and ignoring them. She's right. Whether she's a teenager or an old woman, we ALL have to completely change, as much as possible to start with because it takes time to build, train, educate the masses and find ways to take over the billionaires who behave as if planet earth was their playground.
Before listening, I could have said that ‘I am quite aware of the environmental changes and enduring chaos that has been around our civilization for as long as I can remember’, but I have never been this ashamed for the fact that I thought so. Maybe I was ignorantly a little posh about the fact that I actually cared, compared to my colleagues and families, even though I knew thoroughly that only caring was and will never be enough. After watching the speech I felt doubtful about all the superficial views that I had kept for the past few years of my entire life. I immensely relate to her refer that survival is as means of black and white. We should be desperate about our very status, not just merely understanding the current situation, for it depends on our lives and future generations. I felt the urge to take action immediately as I was encouraged to do so, but was soon depressed by the fact that I had nothing to change at hand. Even so, I promise myself to start from the very basic things such as consumption to transportation and many other requirements I could find from my every-day life.
And yet as a developmental demonstration of maturation we outgrow the black and white thinking stage and move into the more adult world of critical thought...a mental capacity to discern between sharp oppositional polarities...this is the state we recognise as adulthood.
Kids in my hometown in Holland went on a school strike last week and our best politician was there to support them. Together we must stand and fight for our right to live.

Great speach! to all the commenters and applauders: dont just say "Yeah, she`s so right". Do smth. become a vegetarian, take the bike instead of the car, use trains instead of planes (as greta does), use less plastic. thanks :)
I'm doing all of those things. Just for the record, I'm almost totally vegan (for multiple reasons), being largely vegetarian for 29 years; haven't owned a car in over 6 years; have driven maybe 3000 miles in those years; rarely use a disposable shopping bag; and, in fact, haven't been on a plane in almost 22 years. But that's not all that's needed. You need to INFORM YOURSELF. And you need to think about what you see in the media, and discuss it with others-including IRL, which BTW is TTTT where I could do better. This is extremely important. Why? Because there are those who are pushing solutions to our climate problems which are very dangerous, and sometimes frankly just delusional. Those bad ideas exist on BOTH ENDS of the spectrum of discussion (and even in the middle). They must be challenged. This is every bit as important as our individual actions, because the wrong kind of big project could easily undo all the good that individuals accomplish.
@@NoxBellatricis Being vegetarian is not a better step, but it can be a less worse step (by using the word better you are suggesting that eating all animal products is good).

Today, while reading the newspaper, I came across an article about the ozone layer stabilizing. So I looked for more detailed information and the smallest 16.4 km² record since 1982, when the announcement of the minimum value since ozone hole observations was the highest annually in September 2019, was gradually reduced as ozone depleting substances decreased. Research has shown that the recovery of ozone pores is greatly reduced.
You read false, out of context information. I am saying this from a scientific point of view. If you read something and do not question it, you are bound to make that mistake.
yeah in china, something like 30% or more of the pollution comes from China, due to the high density populous and the ways they run there government and policy to do with climate change.

Has to do with sickness. The people who are sick wear those or people who are worried about becoming sick. You see it in airports too. Airports aren't polluted, they're just places where diseases spread easier due to the international population.

Here in America, and perhaps in many parts of the world, people choose SUVs over small fuel efficient cars and, somehow think it's the governments job to do something about emissions and mpg ratings. It's so preposterous many people have the nerve to tell me I should have a truck or SUV, because that's what they want? I've only ever had one car that got less than 30 mpg, and that's fine with me. SUVs are so popular now that sedans and wagons are being cut from many manufacturers lines. Station wagons is offensive to many Americans but, but I love them. We vote with our dollars, so as long as we continue this conspicuous consumption someone will continue to provide us with what we want. Admittedly this is as good as excuse as any for me to rant about the SUV craze everybody seems to be on.
And many countries admire, so try to copy the “bigger is better” consciousness of the USA (SUV’s / supersized meal servings). I agree with you. In Australia, fuel prices are astronomical so we buy smaller, cheaper & electric cars. The USA must change their obsession with these massive trucks their people call cars.
@Le SpamI'm not talking about electric cars. I'm talking about fuel efficient cars. I don't understand the need to constantly discard things for the latest and greatest? What I'm trying to get at is, what good is it to buy stuff because it's a little better for the environment while throwing away a mountain of stuff that was perfectly functional? Kind of negates the concept of conservation.

The sad thing is that we watched the presentation, we clapped but most of us did nothing to help to solve this situation.
It's because human brain have 2 parts, one is instinctive/savage/emotion and the other is the analytic part. The numbers and facts from climate change only affects the analytic part of the brain. However the emotional part, which governs our behavior, is not affected. We know underneath that we can't escape math or cause-and-effect reasoning but if the bad thing from climate change sounds so distant, we can't relate.

Because California is such a huge part of the market, since the 1970s, the entire auto industry has built all cars slated for sale in America to Californian standards.

In fact, modern factory farms emit far more greenhouse gases than you can imagine.

Maybe I was ignorantly a little posh about the fact that I actually cared, compared to my colleagues and families, even though I knew thoroughly that only caring was and will never be enough.
After watching the speech I felt doubtful about all the superficial views that I had kept for the past few years of my entire life.
I immensely relate to her refer that survival is as means of black and white. We should be desperate about our very status, not just merely understanding the current situation, for it depends on our lives and future generations.
I felt the urge to take action immediately as I was encouraged to do so, but was soon depressed by the fact that I had nothing to change at hand.
Even so, I promise myself to start from the very basic things such as consumption to transportation and many other requirements I could find from my every-day life.
And yet as a developmental demonstration of maturation we outgrow the black and white thinking stage and move into the more adult world of critical thought...a mental capacity to discern between sharp oppositional polarities...this is the state we recognise as adulthood.

So I looked for more detailed information and the smallest 16.4 km² record since 1982, when the announcement of the minimum value since ozone hole observations was the highest annually in September 2019, was gradually reduced as ozone depleting substances decreased. Research has shown that the recovery of ozone pores is greatly reduced.

@@drewdrewman28 evolution made us all different until people accept that its not going to change look as iq tests similar everywhere in the world except Africa no exceptions sub Saharan i must point out .
How can it be coincidence its plain for anyone to see .
Were we once apes yes all dogs are wolves but some breeds are better than others
Not taking action doesn't surprise me. Human beings are short sighted, it has always been like this over the history
What an incredible person!!!!!!!
@kath david Said by another agenda puppet.
Now she has everything she's ever asked for with this pandemic. She must be so happy.
She's really not that incredible
She is better than any world leader. She is queen of earth.
Why doesn't this have more views?? I think everyone should see this video
Because it is pile of crap coming from the mouth of brainwashed child?
Because people are sick of being lectured by celebritys and politictions who fly In private jets
@@SlonopotamIII no, because they should hear what Greta has to say. She is not a brainwashed child, she is someone who has seen the truth and has decided to come forward and call world leaders on their bullshit.
brainwashed to say the least
i'm pessimistic.. everyone in general is in favour of change..until it affects THEIR job or lifestyle (e,g car makers, beef farmers, travel agents etc. etc. :(
Dolmen But what people don’t realize is that there are work branches that will grow immensely and new branches will come to life. You will always be able to use your degree, experience etc. It’s just that there are some small branches that will cease to exist hopefully, but it’s not like nothing will come and make new jobs.
@@brecht1971 don't know if you live in UK.. But we have politicians preaching from climate change protest platforms then a week later protesting about closures of car factories etc.
Dolmen No, I’m from the Netherlands. But yeah, I do totally stand by your point btw. It’s just that the people who are ‘scared’ of losing their jobs, don’t always know what the alternatives will be. :)
@@brecht1971 The only new "branches" in the post-carbon Neo-Feudalist world will be that of SERF. That's why the whole climate change religion is being pushed by the elites with such vehemence. Current and near future "carbon free" energy is simply not going to produce enough energy to sustain even a subsistence level existence for 7+ BILLION people (and climbing) . On the plus side, if you're a marxist utilitarian, is the fact that if the alarmist positions are adopted, there won't be 7B people on the planet much longer.
I try to do the right thing and keep my carbon impact as small as possible. But isn't good enough. Its just so hard when the vast majority don't care and even dare tease you for it. Its not a joke
What the few of us that are actually doing something have to work on, is educating others, inspire others and never turn down a chance to spread this information. Even if it is on a RUclips comment section. The internet can reach more people than face to face interactions anyway. So use all the resources you have to do so.
Be vegan. Be a minimalist. But more importantly, be an activist.
I'm sorry but it is a huge joke and it's on you and all the climate change idiots falling for UN propaganda designed to steal more power and money from from the middle class. If you can't see this you are correct, there is no hope for you. Try waking up a few brain cells and exercise some critical thinking. I know it's harder than parroting other people's crap. Lazy stupid people trying to virtue signal their way to some moral high ground. Get some help
I think the audience thought they were at the comedy gala.
മുതിർന്നവർക്ക് വഴികാട്ടാൻ ഇതുപോലുളള കൊച്ച് മിടുക്കികളെയാണ് കാലം ആവശ്യപ്പെടുന്നത്.
The elders have lots to learn from this little angel.😍
KERALA, INDIA.
Greta,you are my role model! 👍❤️
The politics have to do something the world 🌎 is changing!!!!!!
Greta is young and have some big powers !!!
She is talking really well and explaining crystal clear (even my 8 years old sister understands)
PLEASE ACT FAST !!!!!!
Which part you do not understand the damage has been done? It will take both financial and human capital to undo all that, also it could backfire. We do not know how nature will react.
It like asking your body to make new teeth after maturity age! kinda oxymoron, do not you think?
This is child abuse. She is sixteen and sounds twelve. It is ashamed what adults have done to her. It is called brainwashing.
Ask yourself who is sponsoring this Girl.....
she can be sponsored by whatever and make 50 million a year for all i care, she speaks the truth!!!
@Ellen D because i happen to like exclamation points. Happy New Year to you!!!!
see?
She getting sponsored by the gays
Everyone in this comment section is so moved, is no one going to call out the fact that this movement might be grasping straws by using a child to represent them? I bet these aren’t even her words, but a script she read. Who here honestly believes that a child would understand anything about climate change at the age of 8.
Great Girl! Inspired me long time ago and deserves definetly more attention.
@Awakened2Truth - Disciple of Jesus the Christ MORON LOL
So proud of you darling. 💕 from Ontario Canada 🇨🇦. I saw you today with Justin Trudeau.
I’m sorry for your troubles love . I have ocd . You are incredible.
I don't understand how it still go so many dislikes
Thunberg is a great character creation
What does any problem or trouble she may have had have anything to to do with the TRUTH she is speaking. She is articulate , well researched and Passionnant.
LOVE THIS COMMENT exactly what I was thinking
Welcome to the prying eyes of the public. As soon as you're a public figure no matter who you are good or bad, people will find out everything about you and use it as ammunition against you. I think Dave Chappelle said it best recently
“Hey! Durr! If you do anything wrong in your life - duh - and I find out about it, I’m gonna try to take everything away from you, and I don’t care what I find out. IT could be today, tomorrow, 15 - 20 years from now, if I find out, you’re fucking finished!” - Dave Chappelle
Incredible,we will together stop the pollution
Wind Turbines life expedience is only on average 12 years. Fossil fuels are needed to build them and then there is the problem of land fills to story the broken ones. Solar Panels life is an average of 5 years fossil fuels used for there construction, old panels in land fills contaminate ground water.
yea!!! finally some one with the courage to speak the truth about mean people and people who are like mean and stuff like that...bravo and good tidings
That is true what Greta Thunberg is saying, but I have a feeling most of the audience doesn’t care... 😕
Of course they do not, and she knows it. I think it is brave if not futile for her to try.
Those with interests always postpone the problem but we know now..
Here in America, and perhaps in many parts of the world, people choose SUVs over small fuel efficient cars and, somehow think it's the governments job to do something about emissions and mpg ratings. It's so preposterous many people have the nerve to tell me I should have a truck or SUV, because that's what they want? I've only ever had one car that got less than 30 mpg, and that's fine with me.
SUVs are so popular now that sedans and wagons are being cut from many manufacturers lines. Station wagons is offensive to many Americans but, but I love them.
We vote with our dollars, so as long as we continue this conspicuous consumption someone will continue to provide us with what we want.
Admittedly this is as good as excuse as any for me to rant about the SUV craze everybody seems to be on.
yes individuals can do things to help but honestly the biggest issues ARE with the huge corporations and governments. Everyone needs to do something
And many countries admire, so try to copy the “bigger is better” consciousness of the USA (SUV’s / supersized meal servings). I agree with you. In Australia, fuel prices are astronomical so we buy smaller, cheaper & electric cars. The USA must change their obsession with these massive trucks their people call cars.
@Le SpamI'm not talking about electric cars. I'm talking about fuel efficient cars.
I don't understand the need to constantly discard things for the latest and greatest? What I'm trying to get at is, what good is it to buy stuff because it's a little better for the environment while throwing away a mountain of stuff that was perfectly functional? Kind of negates the concept of conservation.
@Egalitariat ViewsSubaru owners are a different breed. Makes it hard for me to find a good used one, but I love them to.
@Captain Cavemanthat's fine, just realize that's what helps give some people the idea that it's necessary to give the government more power to regulate such things.
All you boomers in the comments are so cringe. Quoting her like she wrote even one word of this speech.. please, lmao
I don't see why so many people despise her. She was a kid who was worried about her future. What's wrong with that?
Your house is on fire, but you keep chopping trees from your garden to throw at it! We're a bunch of lunatics.
The sad thing here is that most people in the audience perhaps started to change things but reverted quickly back to their old ways.
A newer comment here says climate change is a lie
What has humanity come to
The fact that so many people are belittling her in the comments makes me fear for what humanity is going to become in the next coming years.
