Climate activist Greta Thunberg who, at age 15, led school strikes every Friday in her home country of Sweden — a practice that caught on globally — has now, at 20, managed to bring together more than 100 scientists, environmental activists, journalists and writers to lay out exactly how and why it's clear that the climate crisis is happening.

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel
..."We can join Thunberg in giving up- or at least reducing- a flying habit if we have one. Three further steps, out of many offered in the book, are these: Switch to plant-based diets. Support natural climate solutions, by protecting forests, salt marshes, mangroves, the oceans, and all the animal and plant life in these habitats. Pressure the media to go beyond the latest story on a heat wave or collapsing glacier to focus on root causes, time urgency, and solutions. Thunberg writes that "No entity other than the media has the opportunity to create the necessary transformation of our global society."
Social norms can and do change, Thunberg emphasizes. That's our greatest source of hope — but only if we keep climate justice front and center at every step."

Poor Ms. Thunberg, being used as a political pawn. This is a prime example of what the attached article speaks about. She will probably never be happy in her life.

Climate alarmism is 'robbing' students of hope, ambition, earth science professor says
Geological sciences professor, Dr. Matthew Wielicki, said adults pushing climate catastrophism are “robbing" young Americans of their "ambition and their hope.”
