Thunberg has an important message. But it’s not the message that really matters. It’s what we do now that really matters. Too bad our “leaders” … especially the ones from the Trumpist party are heading in the absolutely worst possible direction.
It’s the liberals’ fault again. Conservatives would just LOVE to believe in climate science! But since liberals believe in climate science, conservatives are obligated by cult law not to believe any of it.
We probably shouldn’t concentrate and rely upon only one person as a figurehead for any progressive movement. While people such as Gandhi and MLK were eventually much revered for their efforts, they were humiliated and reviled much of of the time previous. Greta Thunberg, at only sixteen years of age, is now running through the gauntlet of vested interest political criticism. Even if she won a Nobel Peace Prize, her status as speaker to truth would be ridiculed. Even the slightest trip in her personal life might be used to dilute the power of her message. Heaven help her if the conservative media detect a hickey on her neck.
Great, now we have to explain everything to the ignorant deniers again.
CO2 is a green house gas.
Greenhouse gases have far-ranging environmental and health effects. They cause climate change by trapping heat, and they also contribute to respiratory disease from smog and air pollution. Extreme weather, food supply disruptions, and increased wildfires are other effects of climate change caused by greenhouse gases.
If green house gas gets out of control, the earth could have a temperature of over 200 degrees.
I think the results of climate change will be much less dramatic than depicted, but ultimately the same result. Mankind will likely end with a whimper…not a bang.

Republicans are doing nothing to stop this from happening, in fact they are doing things to make it worse.
If you want to save the earth, do not vote for any republican for anything.

“Apocalypse Now” was made too soon and had the wrong theme.
