It's hard to argue against humans playing a role in climate change and almost all other environment issues. There's been far more money from the oil industry thrown at rubbishing climate change research than there ever will be in the opposite direction.

It's immensely rational long term to 'go green' whether it's renewable or even nuclear, and current methods of energy consumption look archaic in real time. As has been said by others though, getting the whole world on board with such a thing starts to enter pipe dream territory.

Depending on how drastic the situation became I could even see a future where there are wars as result of energy policy. The planet will always readjust though. 'Life goes on'.

The first bit is a non argument though.
All the other side have to do is tax us.
The oil industry is in fact protecting all of us.
It appears anyone who disagrees with the status quo and tries to put a counter discussion is shot down.

It seems to me that a lot of the same people arguing for Greta and 'green energy' are the same kind of people arguing for open borders.

There's a kind of cognitive dissonance which comes from thinking that climate change can be successfully reduced in any way whilst also having 8 or 9 billion people living American/European level lifestyles.

Yet population reduction never seems to be on their menu.

Some of us might start to think that there is an agenda here....

Sorry....I couldn't read your post for the din of sheep noises.....Baaaaa...Baaaaaaa.

Her parents are far left political activists and the article just straight up pretends she just suddenly decided to get political.

Funny how the BBC article just flat out doesn't mention certain realities about her parents that don't suit the narrative.

But yeah...apparently I and others are the ones being manipulated.

That the BBC article wasn't being honest about this girl's background.

You spoke about manipulation yet you were happy to be persuaded by a soft focus piece that wasn't objective.

Her parents and she wore an anti fascist t shirt once. It’s a recent photo, maybe it was she that persuaded them to wear the shirts.

Should they be pro fascist or neutral then? Does that affect whether the weather is changing? I worry for the wethers.

How does that change what she said in her interview. It must be tough to be so untrusting. When you are served a McDonald’s do you demand proof it’s beef? Do you fear bus drivers are out to kidnap you?

Who’s behind all these conspiracy theories? I think we should be told.
