If you're trying to make peace maybe an angry snarling performance isn't the best way? Imagine her older and being mad at you and putting all that in your face.
Greta Thunberg loses out on Nobel Peace Prize. How could so many be wrong?

I get the anger. Very often councils will decide to chop down mature trees in a street for health and safety reasons, despite this being BS. Maybe I'd be the first out to camp out up said tree if the chainsaws came to my road. Greta and the ER crowd I guess see that principle on a global level. Maybe if I was a kid, I'd be heavilly into it.
My issue is the right on messaging, you are now castigated as pale and stale if you show any reluctance to support, and together w the open borders movements and trans ID cults, there is a geopolitical movement that is an absolute clear and present danger to Enlightenment principles.
Trump, Brexit, populism, are the counterbalances.

Marc, only because it's about Nobel Peace Prize related ... I started this beautiful thread ... I love you very much so ... I simply don't want to see the police car with his piercing siren blasting off.
Thank you mate for your understanding, consideration and cooperation .... peace.

FWIW Steve, I’m proud to be an American. I get your zeal. It is to be commended. However your constant bashing of America is starting to get weary. This thread is so OT that it is typical of one that Bob starts. They all become the Never Ending story filled with nothing but links and you tube videos.
they got it right. You got it wrong Bob. This is the Nobel Peace Prize. And yes some countries spell it Organisation. Big deal
this thread has become a bottomless black hole. Now can we get it back on topic or I’m going to close it as it has become yet another thread on a similar topic discussed elsewhere. This is about the Nobel Peace Prize. Everyone got that ?
Hey, I love Americans. I have a close US contact who dies when Trump is on the tv, and another who watches Trump rallies live. Both in the UK. I'd HOPE they could share a couple of drinks Lol.
For the record, I get the Greta angst. I don't think she's fake. There is some manipulation of career going on, but her phenomenon couldn't easily be manufactured.
My issue is, the UK contributes at most 5% of global emissions. If we went to 0% by 2030 as ER want, we would be in Mad Max territory. No way is China even dropping 10% in the same period. And no way are you convincing the developing world to not have a piece of prosperity.
So, as we go from 5% to 4%, and at a stretch 3%, what are China doing? Ceasing opening those coal fired power stations that go on line DAILY?

Perhaps this thread can be summed up by the poll at the top. That keeps the thread on topic
The OP was a simple yes or no
The OP was a simple yes or no
I can’t see how this thread cannot turn political...after all the awarding the Nobel peace prize is political and has been for a while.
Btw I vote no on Bob’s question.
Maybe they should have a Nobel prize for advancing causes with passion instead of corrupting a legitimate and historical prize.

Don't close my thread, people are free to their opinions. We are having a good discussion, learning. And don't blame me for any wrongdoing. Peace.
And David, could you please delete your above post.
I wasn't the one who added a poll to my thread; my guess is Steve did it.
Please everyone here, read the article from my OP...it's only few minutes ...
• https://nationalpost.com/news/world...greta-thunberg-loses-out-on-nobel-peace-prize
Then join the conversation...with maturity, dignity and intelligence.
It is important that you read the full article to understand in full.
The winner on the Noble Peace Prize and Greta and others are good people.

I agree, and that earlier fabricated video of her was also improper taste.
I suspect that "climate change" is more complex than just green house gasses. Just my opinion. Everything in nature is based on cycles.
That's an enigmatic post to say the least.
Don't dismiss the reality of response to the thread you created, that some find as virulent as others find some reactions to it.
It's called global warming. Not Japanese-Island-in-September warming.
Whatever.....if you think....all the nations including China and India are going to reduce growth....Good luck. Just saying.
I'm sorry Tima but Adolf Hitler and the Nazi have zero to do with Greta, climate change and Noble Peace Prize. This is a Peace thread, not a Joker thread with hatred, not a Nazi with humanity destruction, not a Heavy Metal fake YouTube video.
Sure, anyone is entitled to their opinion, but that's getting way overboard.
This wasn't my intention, just the exact opposite.
If I had the power to moderate my own thread I would kindly ask the two posts to be simply removed. There are millions of guests reading this thread, normal families with peace of mind.

It’s the same Nazi tactics Bob, put a child’s face in front to bully others into submission and censor what you don’t like to hear or see as you asked for with my post. There’s nothing peaceful about the climate agenda, it’s a total takeover of our lives and getting nastier by the minute! IMO Greta is a willing participant and frankly evil.
