    Once again pointing out that that little girl is being used as a tool doesnt stir the shit. It's a necessary step to get that little girl the help she clearly and desperately needs. You pretending she doesn't need to is harmful to her.

    The Arctic isn't melting (other than seasonal melts). It is not possible to measure the global sea level. Coral reefs are fine. Making up numbers (like 'a million species') is a fallacy, dude. Argument from randU fallacy. Weather is not a habitat.
    You are obviously not fine. You are living in fear, brought on by your ridiculous belief in the Church of Global Warming and the Church of Green and the Church of Covid. You probably believe in the Church of the Ozone Hole too.

    We call that kind of snow 'sugar snow' because it looks like granulated sugar. Not even the sound of cars to drown it out (they won't start).

    If this kind of thing happened today, the Church of Global Warming would call it 'climate change'. They started using this buzzword instead so they could claim extreme cold events like this as 'proof'.

    Their 'solution' is always the same, of course. Implement tyranny to shut down industry to limit CO2...because CO2 apparently causes warming...which causes extreme cold...which causes drought...which causes floods...which....

    No, it doesn't have to make sense. This is a fundamentalist style religion.

    She didn't make herself a celebrity. She spoke her mind and the public spotlight focused upon her. It's not like she's the first to speak out about global warming and it's not like she has any special knowledge about the subject known only to her.

    Greta is a good example of being in the right place at the right time.

    Here's something you don't understand, neef; people who put others up too high on a pedestal will ultimately find out the person is human...and then roundly condemn the person for failing.

    I don't put her on a pedestal at all.

    I just give her some of the credit for "getting over" as she's gotten.

    She's not in a position to succeed or fail, because the survival of the planet as a habitable place for humans won't depend on her;

    and beyond that, not having grandchildren of my own, I don't even care that much about the final outcome!

    That's contrary to your claim about her making herself a celebrity.

    Not sure what your "getting over" comment means, but I would agree she's worked hard to use her celebrity status to push the issue.

    She can succeed or fail as a person. Over 8 Billion people have little input on whether our planet survives an impact event, super volcano or polluting ourselves back to the Stone Age.

    Agreed; you strike me as someone who doesn't give a shit about the future of mankind.
