That is pretty much what I was thinking-probably as soon as she’s back at home in a few months and not the media’s main darling-in the not-so-distant future, she’ll probably be the subject of an episode of “Evil Lives Here” on ID network...

It is certainly that-the mother is the one putting all the girl’s issues and disabilities out there...

Greta has suffered a host of emotional problems including Aspergers syndrome OCD and depression. Given her being further steeped in the doom and gloom climate change apocalypse i would not be surprised if she took her own life. Sadly the shameless climate change radicals will proclaim her a martyr

I agree. Greta comes across as a little demon, IMO.

She went on a 4 million euro, 18 meter racing yacht. I kid you not. Net-carbon-zero, of course, except for manufacture and maintenance! --- and usually the price gives you a fair idea of the real, end-to-end carbon footprint.

Because she won't fly! so one of her billionaire sponsors showed her a simpler, more humble way to travel the world.

Science is never, ever settled! That is a fact that is being denied these young people, they are in fact, being abused by their elders...hard core environmentalists teachers and parents need to be called out on this.


Science must be reproducible. It can be called out at any time. Flat earth was once settled science.

Not many people age sixty or so want to hear a single word out of anybody under thirty and their stupid experiences.

Is her brother that Hogg boy? They have a strong resemblance

Shared insanity... an awareness of how to ride rage to power.

Yep. Have seen it. People with a shred of honesty know that you wont hear much relevance from someone still in their teens. It also really blows the whole, we have science and you don't, argument right out the window.
