By Mal Fletcher, published 2/10/2019

The Greta Thunberg effect is, like most large-scale movements, partly a result of the right person and the right cause converging at the right time.

Surely not in one of those fossil fuel gulping jet airliners, spewing pollution in the sky.
is Mise,
I understand there was a huge hoohah about her sailing there (see no oil used) but flew back.
The boat was most likely fibreglass. She's too young to realise how she was manipulated by the hypocrites.

I never understood why this was a big deal. It's not a scientist that spoke up, it's a kid. This is just a publicity stunt and that's all. Done and done, ignore it because it doesn't matter any more then when a politician takes a photo shoot near a hospital or a school.

The real issue here isn't global warming, but that the UN is used for a publicity stunt. Not that I hold the UN in good standing any more, but seriously, are they just advertising that they have no scruples anymore? Pay enough for a publicity stunt with the UN as part of the headline and it's all good? That should be the real take away. Gretta has no authority or influence to say global warming is real or it's false any more then the next guy on the street you run into can. What she says doesn't matter. But the UN can be bought, and doesn't mind advertising that through global warming publicity.
