    So when greta highlighted that 'people are dying' during her rant / tantrum at the UN it was ok? But a greta doll cartoon is not allowed to accurately portray greta saying that - really?

    Interesting.

    People are dying.
    But let's ignore that for the lol's.

    That cartoonist has a really weird/creepy obsession with Greta:

    Heres another one. Oddly it reminds me of this thread a bit. Not sure why ....

    Translation.:

    Is she always there?
    Yes she is always there!

    I'm fairly confident that not everyone will get that one either ...
    It also means still there and that's how I translated it.
    Is she still there? Still there!

    I see on the back of the Time person of the year where Time described her as “the biggest voice on the biggest issue facing the planet” there are plans for a documentary to be released on Hulu next year.

    More hogwash. Yes we’re all dying BUT. 100 years ago half a million people died a year from weather related disasters. Currently it’s down to 20,000 a year.

    Of course, and as everyone knows, there have been no improvements in emergency services, weather event predictions and warning, building security, PPE, or medical treatments or procedures.
    Yep, no improvements in any of these which have helped keep people alive.

    By your rational, the weather was 25 times worse 100 years ago than it is now.

    Again, please get on to Met Eierann, the IPCC and everyone else who has been mislead on this.

    But, I'm sure the families of the forest activists shot and killed in Brazil recently see what happened to them as unavoidable.

    Nothing to do with my rational. I doubt the emergency services improved so much to save 480 thousand a year. The fact of the matter is regardless of the reason our weather has in reality become less of an emergency. Stop qouting met eireann. I live in Ireland and i know the weather patterns the last 50 years.

    You’re basically exaggerating about people dying.

    'please stop quoting professionals who disagree with my opinion'.

    Ah......... No.

    Ah......... No.

    You don’t even live in Ireland, i can tell you now the weather is the same as it always has been and if there are changes it’s hardly noticable.

    Btw one of Irelands highest temps ever recorded was in 1976, 43 years ago!

    Like i said these weather emergencies today are exaggerated, 480k decline in deaths, remember that when you qoute people are dying.

    So would you consider yourself a climate change denier?

    Again. Lived in Ireland for 40 years. Haven't done so for less than one.

    Has the weather changed that dramatically that I cannot comment on it?

    If so, wouldnt that be a dramatic change in the climate and with talking about?

    I didn’t realise all the scientists were saying that global temperatures directly correlated with the weather on one small island and nothing else mattered

    I don’t see any weather changes here. Heat waves come and go, storms come and go

    Another poster did so i was correcting him. According to the so called extinction rebellion weather in Ireland has taken a turn for the worst and it’s climate change.

    So Gretas parents/managers decided to pretend that Greta had to sit a whole long train journey on the floor due to overcrowding and they never once expected that the train company would call them out on this?!? Did they “forget” to take a picture of the “overcrowding” and the first class seat?Did they think that making the cover of Time magazine would insure them against criticism?
    If she survives the neglect and borderline abuse she is enduring at their hands she will have some story to tell whoever replaces Oprah later on....

    Jesus Christ all this quibbling over a f*cking train seat. Anyway this is what happened.

    Tbh It's probably more a case of constantly telling posters who do live here what they are thinking, what they are saying and then bizarrly misquoting them.

    Finger on the pulse haha

    Considering the energy and time that Greta is putting in to highlight climate change, I'd be very happy for her to fly first class around the world. Ditto on the train. We need her fit and good to go.

    As if you give a sh*t about this girl, so stop with the faux concern about neglect and abuse. I think your only concern, which seems to be a common theme with God botherers like yourself, is that green movements will lead to more socialist values resulting in poor people getting more money. All you do is give out about refugees and people on the dole on these boards.

    Why didn't she take the yacht up the baltic sea?

    Too cold? Yeah that wouldn't help her whole climate change argument now would it.

    Lay git, bet shes never worked a day in her life and yet here she is doing her best to raise taxes on the rest of us.
