What's many? Roughly what percentage of scientists think climate change is a hoax?

That sixteen-year-old isn't claiming to be the expert and presenting her own research findings. She's literally telling governments and industry to listen to the warnings of the scientific community, who have come out to say climate change is real and a lot of the shit we're doing is contributing to it in a major way. Most didn't listen or act in any meaningful way, and that's what she wants to change.

You do know that’s not how science works right?

Let’s say you have 100 scientist doing a research on the same thing. 99 of comes to the same conclusion, but 1 have a different conclusion, it doesn’t mean the 99 is right and the 1 is wrong, or vice verse. It all it means there varying answers.

It also means they put their research out there to be dissected and work upon.

We know for a fact global warming is money, we know they are plenty of powerful individuals that cares little to nothing about the world and its people, and they also know using a 16 year old child with legit problem is a way for them to hide being question by others.

What the f*ck are you talking about? That's precisely how science works. It's based on measurable and testable results, and 97% of climate scientists agree that human activity is rapidly affecting our climate in a negative way.

If the research from 97 of 100 climate scientists found that global temperatures have been rising since the beginning of heavy industry and can explain how its pollution affects climate, and the remaining 3 either deny the rise in global temperature or acknowledge it without finding another plausible cause, then we conclude that the pollution from heavy industry is responsible for rising temperatures.

If one or more of them discovered a new variable, then they would adjust their conclusions, but until then, it's been determined that pollution from human activities is a major catalyst for climate change.

You mentioned in an earlier post that it should be climate scientists and not Greta Thunberg addressing climate change, and by remaining in denial of what 97% of them have already concluded and presented, you prove my point that you wouldn't believe them anyway.

You're so ready to jump on the conspiracy bandwagon, likely because it either allows you to carry on without guilt or feeling pressured to reevaluate your own choices, or because it's just easier for you to understand. It's an ignorant position to take.

NBC News: Climate scientists say Greta Thunberg's efforts are building real momentum

Environmental activist Greta Thunberg’s searing address at the United Nations earlier this week earned enthusiastic praise from climate researchers, with many saying that the 16-year-old has found ways to raise awareness of climate science, galvanize support and resonate with people in ways that they have struggled to for decades.

“Speaking as a climate change scientist who has been working on this issue for 20 years and saying the same thing for 20 years, she is getting people to listen, which we have failed to do,” said Saleemul Huq, director of the International Centre for Climate Change & Development in Bangladesh.

“I thought it was the most powerful speech I’ve ever seen.”

Sally Benson, co-director of the Precourt Institute for Energy at Stanford University, applauded Thunberg’s emotional remarks and her efforts to mobilize young people to demand action on climate change.

“She has been a catalytic leader,” Benson said. “We’re seeing more grassroots action, and she’s creating a movement where young people are pushing communities, cities, states and corporations and saying, ‘we’re not going to wait.’”

The parts where you continue to piss and moan about her delivery and depict her as some sort of unstable lunatic because she became emotional during a speech she gave as excuses to ignore her message.

Seeing as even you say that she "became emotional" during the speech. sounds more like you're getting mad that I was correct and just can't bring yourself to admit it.

Correct about what? What else has she done for you to suggest she's unstable and insane?

If you didn't agree that there was a problem with the delivery, you wouldn't have spent multiple posts arguing that people should ignore the delivery and focus on the message.

I don't have any problem with her delivery, but I'm trying to be fair to those who do.

If she wants to reach the people that don't like her delivery, the onus is on her to fix the problems with it, rather than moan and cry about how people should ignore the delivery and focus on her message.

Might Help if she stopped making those Growly Faces when she wants people to know that she is being SEROUS about this nonsense. Its like having a kitty snarl at you.

No, dude. I'm sure that makes it easier for you to ignore these things and absolve yourself from any responsibility and critical thinking.

Imagine applying this stupid and ridiculous standard of yours to other desperate pleas for help.

"Please help me! My boyfriend beats me, and I'm afraid he's going to kill me once he finds me!"
"You're emotionally unstable and hysterical. Besides, that's just your side of the story."

"Help! You've gotta help me! My car broke down and my wife is going into labor!"
"I don't like being shouted at or told what to do. Perhaps next time, you'll think about how you say things before you say them."

🙄

Only, I haven't ignored anything, nor am I trying to absolve myself of responsiblity. the fact that you've resorted to personal attacks just proves who really has the problem.

How about instead of missing school to go sail boats and rant at people she goes to school and gets a good education and tries to help solve this problem.

Nah. Her parents are Rich TV Celebs. They don't gotta do that stupid shit.
