Tell me how wrote: » Report in US yesterday that 30% of bird numbers in the states have disappeared in last 50 years. This thread is populated by many who think that's not a problem. Think its fantastic to see reporters of millions of people at thousands of marches in a hundred countries demand action. And for those who have claimed Greta was doing this for attention or is being manipulated, I hope he saw her at the select committee in the US this week. Her evidence was the IPCC report and when oil lobby supported politicians questioned her, she was able to give her view without looking lost or needing someone to tell her what to say.

They are being encouraged to recycle and respect the planet. Hardly and evil agenda. Clearly you don't know/talk to any kids in this age group? The Eco warriors have caught their imagination and its going to make a huge difference in the future and its dragging older people like me (30's) along with them. To think this is bad/evil/untoward is simply weird and sad on your behalf. Get a life. Explain how its harmful in any way? Also, you're quoting RT!! HA HA - Talk about indoctrination.
