👍🏻

Air raid drills, bomb shelters, h-bombs tests causing mutations in the oceans and deserts would do wonders for these kids.

I had a great childhood. Life is good.

crucify her! 😂 By the way, will she fly home by plane?

Hysteria! Child abuse!

Please, adults have been freaking kids out for my entire life. My little sister was freaked out when we had the 'energy crisis,' they put her on meds... Adults fault!

Shut up! They need to know that eating beef is destroying their home!! They are the future!

Greta Thunberg is spreading fear porn and causing hysteria

Debates don't damage kids .... parents do.

Debate or media hype? That is the question.

Wow the teenage nutters are running the asylum.

Capitalists benefit monetarily from environmental degradation.

Being damaged by adults. Activists pretending to be parents, teachers and politicians. Climate change scare is ChildAbuse

Children are doing mass shooter drills in school and they face a future of climatic disaster they may not survive. Let’s thank exxonmobil; the fossil fuel industry; NRA and gun manufacturers, and, of course, the GOP for destroying the future of the next generation

I grew up in the cold war era. Nuclear annihilation was a constant threat...talk about anxiety

Seriously

Maybe part of the problem is that the media is calling it a “debate” when it’s actually happening. 🤷‍♂️

The level of anxiety is being made worse by the hyped up media!

This is what happens when you let the public know to much.

Thats not the real problem here

Lol really inner school or other?

The manipulation of their minds makes them confused.

And what is her plan for saving the planet ?

The earth is warming up for sure and taking fossil fuel from the earth doesn’t help however, global warming is natural a natural phenomena to the earth!

This girl in Particular is being emotionally abused by the people around her.

Having an uncertain future can do that to anyone...

Lol have fun!

School children are being damaged by so much more than climate change - Violence on the streets, incidents of bullying, poverty, a high incidence of sexual abuse, enough said, however, the list is significantly longer than those listed.

You don’t say 🙄

Of course and the adults behind this are so irresponsible. Allowing greed to dominate

Apparently there was the end of the world in the 90's according to the UN's article from 80's.

Like all Cults, so what’s new?

Children should be in school learning about the natural cyclical phenomenon of climate change.

Yep, insane parents , with the gleeful help of rich and powerful folk who want us running scared and buying their eco friendly shit, are using children to fight their battles.

Lol. These oil lobbyists are something else

jpjanson The ones damaging them are the leaders doing f*** all about it

Children are now very frightened.

Distraction or intentional move to cleverly generate money ?

This fake alarmist attitude is damaging children. Good job alarmists!

Mass hysteria and fear mongering.

Well if parents are letting children become damaged by this then they need to reflect on their parenting. Kids should be kids not feel the burden of adult responsibilities.

So, the problem is NOT the climate change. It's the debate. I see. 🙄😒
