Rack my brains as I might, I couldn't answer that question to my satisfaction. Can anyone help?

It's an analogy - as was pointed out to you previously and you have repeated here - so 1 out if 10 for that at least. And it was pointed our to you because of the repeated attacks on those you do not agree with But as I said that kind of stuff is basic 101 comprehension.

But because a source may not suit your extreme left wing bias - you get to ignore it lol. You've been posting non stop and replying and throwing mud at every single comment that points out the problems and issue with gretas mad march. And as for ducks let's introduce another analogy - pots- specifically pots and kettles. You claim other posters are getting erratic in yet another one of your daft in-thread personalisations and attacks. The problem is you haven't put forward one single argument which shows that the criticisms others have detailed in thread are not correct. You are just appear to be magically flag waving and come across as knowing nothing about the topic tbh. So I would suggest you put down your phone or laptop or whatever and walk away from the huge hole you've dug yourself before you fall in completely.

You may not like others being objective about what the child greta does or says and discussing same. But I can't help you with that.

A significant step in understanding the system needs of the future power system was made in June 2010 with the publication of the EirGrid and SONI “Facilitation of Renewables” report. This report augments the results of that study with additional analysis quantifying the level of change required over a range of key operational and plant portfolio metrics. It also considers the implications of the current levels of performance.From this analysis the key challenges and solutions are grouped into four areas:System Frequency Response New operational practices are required to ensure system frequency response remains adequate with increasing penetrations of wind. In particular,as the average level of synchronous inertia will potentially fall by 25% in 2020, power imbalances will have a greater impact on the minimum frequency reached and the rate of change of frequency experienced following a disturbance. There will be an increased reliance on fast acting reserve provision from all plant to ensure that system security is not compromised and significant additional curtailment of windfarms is avoided.Ramping Services New operational policies are needed to manage the increased variability and uncertainty that wind generation will bring. These policies will need to ensure that there is sufficient ramping capability over multiple time horizons to meet the ramping needs of the system. The effectiveness of these policies will be dependent on the level of controllability of all windfarms, the accuracy of wind forecasts, and the portfolio ramping capability and performance.Voltage Control A co-ordinated approach to voltage control across the transmission and distribution systems is required to allow for the changing nature and location of reactive power sources. This approach will need to consider a number of factors: a potential decrease of over 25% on-line synchronous reactive capability; that windfarms reactive capability and their control will be a key requirement to manage voltage; and that the nature of windfarms reactive behaviour during voltage disturbances has implications for the stability of the power system.Portfolio performance The current experience is that generators are not reliably meeting the expected performance and capability standards. This creates uncertainty in system service delivery, which manifests itself today in increased costs in the operation of the power system, and in the long run may compromise system security.source

The critics here and in the media are generally the type that are opposed to the idea that climate change is a problem that necessitates drastic action on a global level.

jackboy wrote: » She says she asks for input when writing her speeches. Also, she gets her speeches checked by scientists for accuracy. Sensible in theory but who are those providing input and who are the scientists. So, you could say she writes the speeches but to say they are her words is quite a stretch.

joe40 wrote: » There is an argument that maybe she is too young to be put in this position, but that ultimately depends on the support system that surrounds her. However, and this is important, it seems to me that everyone that is opposed to her and what she is saying is also opposed to the idea of climate change. All the faux concern for her well being is just hypocritical, because what they really want is for her to shut up, because a lot of people, especially young people are listening to her. Maybe some poster here could say they fully accept that climate change is a drastic issue needing urgent and decisive action, but still dislike the way Greta is used. None have said so yet. Nor have any of her detractors in the media. They all simply want to attack greta because they want to attack her message.
gozunda wrote: » Lol. You didn't understand any of that. The point made to the other poster - if you choose to attack some one instead of discussion - it simply becomes a pizzing competition. So get with the program and try and actually discuss the topic of the thread and not just throw **** at individual posters. It's that simple.

Maybe she will pee off those 500k people who will just get so annoyed at all this baloney she is spouting about fear, panic, eotr - that they will just say fek it and fly anyway - ever think of that? I can only believe you are being deliberatly naive in your thinking if you believe any of that tbh. She is a 16 year old child. She may indeed be getting what she thinks she wants. Still doesn't mean that people smarter than her are not using her for their own ends. That much is clear.
