The phrase originated with Francois Guisot (1787-1874): "Not to be a republican at twenty is proof of want of heart; to be one at thirty is proof of want of head." It was revived by French Premier Georges Clemenceau (1841-1929): "Not to be a socialist at twenty is proof of want of heart; to be one at thirty is proof of want of head."

Image result for 16-Year-Old Climate Activist Sailing From Europe to New York.”

"“her boat”...the one she built herself from wood from replenished forests, cut and shaped with hand tools, with her own stitched cotton sails (cotton imported from Alabama and picked politically correctly) and spun rope made from her own organically grown hemp?"

I built a similar organic vessel in my back yard over the summer.

It's doable.

The media loves people who parrot their talking points.

There are no carbon emissions. There are CO2 emissions.

“For an introverted young lady, she’s speaking with a very loud voice” So introverts speak softly?

“underwater turbines to generate electricity” obviously not powered by the solar panels. So it doesn’t get all its power from the sun. It is wind powered, with solar panels.

Who is sailing with her? Who remains awake while she is sleeping so the boat doesn’t sink? How many gas-powered boats are going to trail her? Don’t they emit CO2? Who paid for the boat and the supplies? What other source of power than solar does the boat have?

Some answers here, which of course will not be in most news stories.

The article is deliberately written so we are supposed to think that she’s going alone. NO. She’s with Pierre Casiraghi and Boris Herrmann on their yacht, and her father.
