Two years on from her first school strike, activist attacks ‘ignorance and unawareness’

Two years on from Greta Thunberg’s first solo school strike for the climate, she says the world has wasted the time by failing to take the necessary action on the crisis.

Is she a grown up yet?

-A kid that hasn't even finished highschool has an opinion. STOP THE FUCKING PRESSES!

CZachariadis Τιλερεπαιδιμου!

But what has she done in these two years except rallies and demanding stuff.. She needs to understand it's not easy assembling a whole youth delegation protests against the government.. She has to follow them first and then question the world leaders.

Another two years lost ! Yes, no sewage treatment improvement, no garbage selection, no organic garbage composting facilities, no reduction on plastic use. Just getting money to fabric uncontrollably !

So the lefties want to claim science as 100% fact when it fits their climate agenda.... but when an MP states scientific facts about women having a cervix they don’t give a damn about the science?!?!? 😂😂🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

Are you still even a thing Not for much longer hopefully.

WTF is she even talking about? Covid-19 has done more to help the environment than anything that has been done, or will be done, in her lifetime.

When are you closing down. SLAVERY!!!!

Is she back? 😡

During this pandemic no one gives two flying phucks about this anymore..students now worried about economic Armageddon and leaving Uni to work in Pret.

The oevent app

Greenpeace Only significant impact of increased CO2 so far;

Kamala nails it.

Action is needed urgently. Imagine if an iceberg looking like that entered major shipping lanes.

She is 100% illuminati

As the world’s foremost climate expert, she would know.

Inequality, corruption, oligarchy, and authoritarianism are inseparable. They must be understood as part of the same system, and fought in the same way.

Shut up and go to school

Thank god, it looks as she is sinking...but then, probably too cold to be an iceberg...

Why are we listening to a teenager?

Who?

And two years of her education lost

HollieTheCard Is she drowning? Just worried, that's all.

False prophets..

The pesky Covid virus halted Greta's crusade to save our plagued earth. Is she stocked with scripts to shut down life, living, evolutionary progress? Is she too late to save our lungs & procreative urges? Sweden's version of 'Maid of Orleans,' only chance is to marry Owen Jones.

Let me think ... the human race is trying to survive this pandemic, they have to survive first, then worry about the planet. That girl needs to go back to school, finish her education, then she can fight for the survival of the planet.

This laughable a sixteen year old girl with the intellectual capacity of a gnat.

The climate scam continues ...

You're as crazy as she is. The most anti-science agenda before this exaggerated garbage virus. That sure is one heck of a dumb picture though. It is closer to the truth about her and this manipulated sly plug for nuclear power hoax than anything they say about it. Sinking!

Does anyone know what is wrong with her? Does she have some medical condition? She is almost 18 but still looks like a child. It's bizarre.

It’s creepy that you lot are still using children to push the desires of those who own you. Really, really creepy.

Thunberg: The world is going to end in twenty years I tells ya! Al Gore: I KNOW, right! That's what I've been saying for thirty years! What is wrong with people?

No offence but shes an uneducated 16year old autistic kid. Ill leave the science to real scientists

Since when did we start listening to children over Scientists?

Gosh darn coronavirus ruined my fame! Lmaoooo

I support anything that angers greta

Praying for Climate Change in The Channel, daily.

Public speaking is easy if you have no personality.

There has been a global pandemic for 8 months to be fair

The Covid19 crisis lockdown has given us a taste of what the consequences of acceding to Extinct Rebellion etc would mean. Mass unemployment and shortage of basic goods Form a political party and put it to the general public at an election. Ah, the Green Party already did...

Opinion | Everything of this little Greta knows, have been trained and implanted into her mind by her father. She is not anything like I.

She's a fake. She's a marketing tool. She's the circus clown. Why on Earth are we listening to a child, when experts already have plans in action. Why is she constantly going on at countries that are doing something, when China does what it wants and doesn't care.

Greta is as deluded as her parents are. What climate change? Doesn't exist. God is the controller of the weather patterns.

The Left: Everyone must listen to 16 year old Greta. Also the Left: Poor Shamima was only 16, she didn’t know what she was doing blah blah blah

Her nose needs to be under the water line too.

New Jaws film? Wait it is just Greta Thunberg. Kappa ;)

NotACult

Covid19 on the wane do she's jumped back onto the Climate Change horse! Greta and her family are absolutely despicable imo!

Just think, she will be back with a vengeance if the covid hysteria goes away!! This is the next huge thing they will bombard us with......track & trace your carbon footprint & tax you accordingly

Greta will undergo a change in herself in the coming two years. Pethaps her parents will stop her taking those puberty blockers (my guess) and she will be allowed to grow into a woman...or whatever gender her personal climate allows.

Quick Covid isn’t working or BLM try climate change again

Good. Its fake anyway

In the 50s you talked about angry young men, today you can talk about ........

2 years and no evidence of any climate change

Shhh Greta, we're busy dealing with a pandemic and the consequences of it.

We have to stop letting political “leaders” get away with not leading to tackle causes and find solutions to climate crises. Hold them to fill their empty words and meet our planet’s needs or fire them at the polls. Status Quo or moving backwards are not options. Fix this mess.

Where does this girl study? Who pays for her trips? What real contribuition will make the future generations as an example of dropping out of school? It's just a question...

missing the attention

The special one

For those short of time or patience, here's the condensed version of the editorial: 'None of you listen to me or care what I think. I hate you all!' *sound of bedroom door slamming*

We're all a bit busy with another global emergency right now..

Climate change isn't man made, say it! Climate change isn't man-made say it! What a poor brainwashed cretin, she's an elite's mouthpiece, now if I were to sit outside parliament fighting for defenceless animals I wouldn't get any attention because that doesn't benefit the rich.

Cause: good. Greta: mad.

We're dealing with a global pandemic at the moment. About that, thanks for hosting a protest in Bristol, England for thousands of people in February, which inevitably helped to spread Covid.

Lot of under endowed grown white men saying silly shit on this thread idiots

Climate change is real but it's a natural occurance and not caused by human activities is my personal opinion.

What a load of 💩 Ignore Greta the GLOBALIST PUPPET

Nobody cares any more. Bigger things to worry about than attention seeking activists

Her 5 minutes of fame have long since ended. People have other things to worry about at the moment.

Yeah we’ve been a bit busy with a global pandemic just recently sorry 😐

We're in a middle of a pandemic wtf. HELP HUMANS FIRST THEN THE BLOODY CLIMATE

That's funny you print that cos Soros' Open Society has now been delcared a 'threat'...brilliant! Soros getting exposed!

She's right to shout up for what she believes in. The drawing though, a little bit harsh.

What s happening to all the ppe, plastic gowns masks etc millions of pieces being used everyday. Landfill or incineration ? Also all the bleach and soap being washed into water coarse s around the globe.

Fight with the big companies that don’t care what they do to the nature. Gabriel Resources for examples !

Trying to be relevant in the age of a pandemic...

How did GretaThunberg become the poster child for environment/climate affairs with position UN? Was it an opportunistic brand development off the back of great exposure - albeit built on passion for the best reasons? Perhaps wealth, family positions, mere authenticity/chance?

Hogwash

Banked/ Funded by Soros (the same man funding the charities who are supplying the boats for the immigrants ) did she let the genie out of the bottle while touring the world about climate change

We really need to start listening to Stephen Merchant 😂😆🤣.

Looks like she will be shouting “I can’t breath” if that water gets any deeper

Greta is still out there.

More like ‘says George Soros’

She's not the Messiah. She's just a very unstable girl.

Oh look, time to wheel out some climate doom pornbecause the plandemic fearporn is wearing a bit thin!

ooo really. I am so sad for her lifestyle.

Climate change? All looking pretty normal over the past centuries - despite the huge programme of weather modification & control + the deliberate mass environmental toxicity including unsuspecting EMF being rained upon us right now - creating mass immune responses!

Too many people, simple. There you go Greta, solved it for you. Almost every problem this planet has, comes from us. This tiny planet can’t sustain 7bn humans. overpopulation

It's kind of difficult when we're all doing even more to harm the planet to save ourselves, masks and sanitizer bottles ect.. We spend more money destroying the planet than we do trying to save it, she's flogging a dead donkey at this stage.

All part of Agenda 21, The Great Reset, 4th Industrial revolution, The New Green Deal. One and the same. This p(l)endemic is rapidly implementing all of the above. 100 trillion will be raided from the economy. (pension funds) to finance what will be the enslavement of us all.

or she's up to her neck in it, whichever one you want.

lol shes in over her head 😂😂😂

does she know the fictional Q from startrek as only he/she would have the power to alter the sun cycle grandsolarminium - CO2 does NOT cause any significant global warming..

For a broke Newspaper you just keep lining her parents pockets

70% drop on flights worldwide due to the pandemic. A tiny detail...

Never hear any solutions or suggestions from Greta always 'how dare you' and 'do something'

Damn y’all setting her up

Yeah might be something to do with a virus you silly little girl

When is the exact date the world is going to end according to this weird child?

There are more important bread-and-butter problems to face today, rather than the doubtful predictions of soothsayers and oracles.

Child abuse

Never any constructive solutions offered, this person wants the world population to return to the middle ages and she tweets this from her Chinese manufactured modern day slave labour phone, ironic, what do you think?

💚🇬🇧✌️

The world’s gone fucking mental when the new Steven Hawkings is a 17 years old scary little girl. Christ.

Sea levels have been rising steadily since before the industrial revolution.

This is what happens when you stand behind a child🤷🏻‍♂️ The climate agenda needs serious people & potential leaders to prompt governments to not just patronise or a challenge could come forward. However as always ‘activists’ lose the common vote, by having to go extreme.Never works

Yes my generation fucked up but come on, stop all the beach parties and littering of the countryside before preaching at us. It’s your generations timetoshine ( without the use of harmful chemicals)

Yawn !! The relevancy of a misguided child who tells kids to skip school, not an expert in Climate Change, is a marketing manipulation of parents & strip her claims & solutions down=a mess.

Yesterday’s news trying to get oxygen time 🤮🤮🤮

She's been groomed blame parents ..poor kid

Poor child.

This scares me to death, that’s GretaThunberg I’m talking about , I’m not too bothered about ClimateChange

Countries now discussing not if but how they are going to start deep sea mining, throwing thousands of tons of toxic silt around the ocean, causing another rise in extinction and yet another cause for concern

Bratty kid needs to shut up and get back to school

Seeing a distinct lack of mass climate protests now that she doesn't have to go to school

In 2019, Chinese emissions were greater than those of the United States, European Union, and Japan combined. Send Greta, by ship via North East passage, to China.

A vast number of people can't cope with the idea of wearing a mask to protect themselves so I don't think many will survive a global environmental disaster.

Who cares what she says?

Shame the didn’t support the party with the comprehensive green action plan then?

Why does anyone listen to this creepy child? She's treated like some mystic expert, who predicts the end of the world, and as managed to frighten half the kids into believing her bullshit.

Oh diddums, little GretaThunberg not getting her way and stamping her feel 😂 ClimateChange clim8resistance

No thanks, I'm not a fan of communism.

Makes me want to enroll in school to drop out

wretchardthecat Who?

I thought she was busy transitioning from a climate grifter to a race grifter?

2 years off a generation losing out on education for nothing 👍

SaleemulHuq ClimateAction or is it ClimateInAction ?

I'm sick of this snotty kid preaching ! She needs to get a life or a boyfriend......kids should be seen not heard. SIMPLES.

Not sure what we should expect. Most that supported her and brought her to stardom were liberals who patted themselves on the back and then promptly went back to destroying the environment. We know climate change is being accelerated, but only good government policy can help.

JKSteinberger EU_Commission tries to convince EU members of insufficient '55% by 1990', eg 1.74Gt/a CO2 by 2030. TimmermansEU, tellthetruth: For Equity, the EU has to lead the way, not shuffle behind; all EU members ratified that. EU GHG must be 1/3 of today by 2030, eg CO2 at 1Gt/a.

bellum_omnium7 Plenty of good photographs are available, so why did you use this ugly painting?

You'd think they would ask reputable scientists what they say.

Greenpeace Wah 😂😂😂

Quest4Truth7 Laudable as this voice in the wilderness is, the pluralisma nd plethora of green interests, agendas and issues x cynical trojan horses purporting to be environmentall friendly like HS2 masquerading as a railway when it enjoys avariced access and agency over others?

Aww, don't you just love all the triggered climate denying frauds, have missed you all🙄

Oh jeeeez, please don't roll gretathunburg out again.....unless she has some good advice with what to do with the hundreds of thousands of disposable masks now littering the planet.....but i doubt it.....

Just read your piece on GretaThunberg . Can I suggest you listen to our single New Day Ahead? We can not raise awareness of the climate crisis if mainstream media refuses to support artist who actually care:

Technically she would be wrong, if humans are more inactive then surely the environment will not be as harmed? That's one of the Primitivist arguments based on science.

Greenpeace PPPPPPPHHHHHFFFTTTTTTT....Who the heck cares..China will kill the world first ; with another virus... before the climate ever has a chance to!

I don't always take scientific advice from teenagers girls. But when I do I make sure it's an autistic retard with fetal alcohol syndrome.

so take our scientific advice from an autistic child and vaccine advice from a software engineer?.....right....

Why care about idiot 17 y/o in hands of ruthless parents?

‘Says Greta Thunbergs father’, fixed it for you

We shut down the industrial output planet for months on end, sat at home doing bugger all & the CO2 as measured at Mauna Loa is still rising, 412.58 ppm 17th Aug 2020 vs 410.15 ppm in 2019 Maybe, just maybe, this is an indication that we can do fuck all about it ecobollocks

I thought Corona had levelled it all up?

Yeah sorry about that, been a little busy this year trying not do die from a virus!

Back on the core subject? Smart. The BLM thing was a stretch.

Who?

Thankfully, we don’t listen to used, abused, and controlled 17 year old children.

Yeah cause it’s not the like the world had nothing else to deal with the last 5 months !

I am a little biased against sweedish blonde girls with cool parents and a nice house doing this kind of thing. I will always root for the poor black senegalese girl talking down those powerful white men that would not empathize with her. But as things are. Well, listen the girl.

Agree with Rosie here.

Good ole Greta - triggering middle aged white men since 2018. 🤣

No-one cares what this child thinks.

Away and preach to china,india etc

Oh dear, I guess that means we only have 7 years🙄

Wasn't it 'We have 12 months until it's to late' like a year or so ago?

Moonfaced little illuminati puppet

She is irrelevant now.

'The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents.'

I think we’ve got enough to worry about without this.

I'll listen to scientists on this one, thanks.

I wish she'd shut up about the imaginary problem of CO2 and talk instead about the real problem of plastic waste in the environment.

One of the few and unexpected benefits of covid... Not having to listen to greta's attention seeking drivel or see her stupid, pouty face... Nice while it lasted I guess

wretchardthecat Greta who?

The insults against this amazing young woman and her message never cease to sicken me. It shows the public up for what they are, largely- a horde of ignorant gullible fools who swallow any line the polluters peddle on Facebook. And just really horrible, too.

Sorry we had a pandemic to deal with St Greta. Are your parents and backers running low on money? Time to drag you out again is it?

We must listen to Bill gates on global health and greta on global environmental issues all while the guardian and BBC pretend to be real 'news'. We are living in a clown world folks

Greenpeace Right message but why the spooky drawing?

The fight against climate change turning out futile.

Very weird picture. In any case, the fact that she allows pieces to be run in a newspaper founded off the back of slave money says it all. I think we can see who the real masters and slaves are now.

GeorgeMonbiot in making the picture (a weird distasteful representation of) Thunberg the guardian make the story all about her and not about climate. The paper you write for is edited by people who do not care about the climate.

Seriously Greta

Greta go home

why are you using that unbelievably cursed image

She is a child who knows nothing. Clean up the planet, yes, needs doing, stop deforestation yes, but climate change is a natural cycle that we cannot change... in my humble opinion

didn’t she lose like 2 years of her school life, so unfair man

Oh give it a rest and go back to school 🤓

blue law

Oh.... Fcuk off

Greenpeace

Fuck me is she still about.

Yes she is right , our environment is still being destroyed on a daily basis ,with no empathy from the corporations that are putting profits before our planet , it will all end in tears soon & the next generation will be saying 'What have you done to this beautiful planet!'

Is she nuts? The entire transport network of the world was shut down for months as were most factories & businesses And emissions fell around 1% But half the world has lost income She has no clue and the Guardian should not be giving her air time

Instead of a global carbon tax collected by an organization within an organization, maybe Greta Thunberg could help plant & replace the 2 trillion trees Mother Earth has lost. Oh wait...scratch that. Watch cars rust & paint dry while pandemic happens.

Saint Greta speaks

Greenpeace Oh i thought people in western are more intelligent. This comment section shows something else :)

Has she walked down the streets of China or India denouncing their national addiction to mass pollution? Didn’t think so.

2 more years of not spending billions on wind turbines, solar panels and electric cars, leading to western financial collapse and my real goal of a socialist takeover of all capitalist countries.....how dare you!!!

Give it another six months and her nose will be submerged

Creepy Communist

Didn’t realise she had a degree in Science the 16 year old bint

WhyWhy75463547 Admire her but she doesn’t have the courage to criticize its environment policy

St Greta has spoken.

Sorry your puppet masters have switched agenda.

She reminds me an episode of the X Files,,, Mulders wee abducted Sister , he found her,, on a Bee Farm with 10 other clones,,,, sounds familiar,, 🤔🤔🤔🤔

Two years on and the kids with placards are still using smart phones, getting dropped off to school in SUV’s, have dozens of device’s, eating using Uber Eats, wear Primark whilst getting their Amazon delivered same day, have fridges stocked with Soy products grown in the Amazon.

kwnikos35

Fuck climate change we can’t even feed or home our people

🤪🤣😂😅

owen_g All the facemasks dumped at the side of roads will speed it up

It had to be the Guardian that bring her back into our thoughts eh

Surely human produced CO2 is at a 50 year low given the restrictions? I live near the Heathrow flight path. It used to be one a minute and now hardly anything. Wasn't the unwarranted destruction of the travel industry enough?

Who's paying to use her byline this week?

No Greta. The world isn’t in denial. It just doesn’t want to be held to ransom by a generation who are happy to use everything the corporations and industry throw at them, but still think they have the moral high ground because they’re young.

The virus was millions of times more effective than the Greta led extinction rebellion blocking towns etc it stole her thunder, and the climate will soon make her look a real plonker, will she be able to emotionally cope ?

GretaThunberg has caused more GlobalWarming and ClimateChange with her CarbonFootprint travelling the world spouting off VerbalDiarrhea spoiltbrat hypocrisy crybaby

She’s gone awefully quiet. Are they pumping their money into BLM instead?

Go to school or get a job.

Too much sun perhaps

. She wants system change / socialist change. Socialism has always needed to lock itself (and its people) in because it wasn’t convincing. Guess why ClimateAction has a bad name.... Real climate action needs freedom for everyone to go own ways into carbon neutrality. .

Not at all a creepy drawing.

And millions more babies adding to the destruction and pollution.

Oh the horror

She says that, but the global steel industry is working its butt off to eliminate CO2 emissions by 2030. Hydrogen steelmaking is the way ahead.

Get back to school

Just pause for a moment, you know this is click bait and you know this is a young person at the centre. You also know that the world has largely been in lockdown. A little more circumspect please.

creepy resemblence

This girl is already creepy, add to that the image in my head now because of your art, and you have hellish nightmare material! Major art flop, Guardian.

I see that the permanent scowl hasn’t gone though

For crying out loud. In the middle of a Global pandemic, her parents activate their daughter once more. Classy.

Make ANGER Great Again 2020 ✊

relax greta. climate change is not real. it is a left wing hijacking of the science they do not understand. i am a physicist and i have looked at data and equations and it is v v questionable. watch this!!!

And her childhood lost too...?

A AMAZÔNIA É NOSSA 🇧🇷

She’ll soon be an overgrown 18 yo baby!

那可太棒了

climatechangeisafraud

We a six months in to a test run for exactly what her types want. Let’s see the data. Science right?

Meh, her 5 minutes of fame are over now. Bring on the next kid who thinks they're changing the world.

Sweetie you were 3 crisis actors ago, now we're pretending orange man is trying to steal the mail. Hush.

This girl gives me the creeps justsaying

Greenpeace 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Who are you talkin’ about?

The science is incontrovertible, we have to act now.

Yup, still no communinism 🥳

'I will be back'

Yawn

no one listen to her anymore since we know who are her parents

Where was she and her supporters while the rain forest burns to make room for more farmers? Get her over there to try stop that

Must be an election near, Greta speaks!

Honestly, the lockdowns/pandemic inadvertently did more to cut emissions than old Greta ever could.
