Congrats, Greta, you’re finally noticing this stuff. Of course, you won’t take the same lesson I did, that the people pushing the climate crisis scam the hardest are full of mule fritters, and that this isn’t about the climate but control. If Warmists aren’t willing to practice what they preach, and actually have bigger carbon footprints that everyone else, might this be a scam?

‘Hypocrites and greenwash’: Greta Thunberg blasts leaders over climate crisis

Greta Thunberg has blasted politicians as hypocrites and international climate summits as empty words and greenwash. Until humanity admits it has failed to tackle the climate crisis and begins treating it as an emergency like the coronavirus pandemic, society will be unable to stop global heating, she said.

In an interview with the Guardian, Thunberg said leaders were happy to set targets for decades into the future, but flinched when immediate action to cut emissions was needed. She said there was not a politician on the planet she would vote for: “If only,” said the teenager, who will turn 18 in January.

Funny, us Skeptics have noted the same thing, namely, that setting these targets far out allows politician Warmists to say they are Doing Something while not really doing the big things which would destroy their economies. Where’s St. Greta getting her money from? She’s not working. The rest of us have to earn a living.

A vital UN climate summit had been scheduled to begin on Monday in Glasgow but has been postponed for a year because of Covid-19. Thunberg, however, said she was not disappointed by the delay: “As long as we don’t treat the climate crisis like a crisis, we can have as many conferences as we want, but it will just be negotiations, empty words, loopholes and greenwash.”

She is also unimpressed with pledges by nations including the UK, China and Japan to reach net zero by 2050 or 2060. “They mean something symbolically, but if you look at what they actually include, or more importantly exclude, there are so many loopholes. We shouldn’t be focusing on dates 10, 20 or even 30 years in the future. If we don’t reduce our emissions now, then those distant targets won’t mean anything because our carbon budgets will be long gone.”

Many countries, including ones who are already kinda Warmist, won’t go full Jim Jones climate cultist. But, St. Greta is entirely correct about all the empty words, loopholes, and greenwashing.

Thunberg said there were no politicians she would vote for when she reaches voting age: “If only. I wish there was one politician or one party that was strong enough on these issues. Imagine how easy it would be if you could just support a politician.”

Justice is at the heart of her campaigning, Thunberg said. “That is the root of all this,” she said. “That’s why we are fighting for climate justice, social justice. They are so interlinked, you can’t have one without the other.”

And she proves that a) this is a cult, and b) it’s not really about the climate.

“The climate crisis is just one symptom of a much larger crisis, [including] the loss of biodiversity, the loss of fertile soil but also including inequality and threats to democracy,” she said. “These are symptoms that we are not living sustainably: we have reached the end of the road.”

Well, she is right on one thing: the Cult of Climastrology is a threat to the Democracy Model, as the people attempting to put all these plans in action essentially want to do away with people having a choice, having a voice, having a vote.
