St. Greta is putting all her worldly experience and numerous degrees to good use
Greta Thunberg wins prize worth €1m – but pledges to give it away to climate change charities
Climate activist Greta Thunberg was on Monday awarded a Portuguese rights award and promptly pledged the €1 million prize to groups working to protect the environment and halt climate change.
Thunberg was awarded the Gulbenkian Prize for Humanity for the way she “has been able to mobilise younger generations for the cause of climate change and her tenacious struggle to alter a status quo that persists”, Jorge Sampaio, chair of the prize jury, said earlier.
But Thunberg said she would use the money to support charities working to protect the environment.
So, they gave her the prize for doing…..nothing. Just yapping. Of course, this is more of an indictment of the award committee than St. Greta. Too many confuse “organizing” and being an activist with actually doing something concrete. Meanwhile
Greta Thunberg says EU recovery plan fails to tackle climate crisis
Greta Thunberg has accused EU politicians of failing to acknowledge the scale of the climate crisis and said its €750bn Covid-19 recovery plan does not do enough to tackle the issue.
The climate campaigner said the package of measures agreed by EU leaders proved that politicians were still not treating climate change as an emergency.
“They are still denying the fact and ignoring the fact that we are facing a climate emergency, and the climate crisis has still not once been treated as a crisis,†Thunberg told the Guardian. “As long as the climate crisis is not being treated as a crisis, the changes that are necessary will not happen.â€
First, there is no climate crisis. Second, most people who think there is are only willing to do things theoretically, not in actual practice. Remember, most do not want to spend their own money or modify their own lives. Third, St. Greta is a child. An uneducated one at that. Why would anyone listen? If your 17 year old child was telling you how to live your life, would you listen? But, these lunatic climate cultists elevated this child, so, they’re getting what they created.
Teach keeps lying (or are they just fibs) that Ms. Thunberg is a child and is uneducated.
She’s 17. In the US 17 year olds can join the Armed Forces. She graduated from secondary school with 14 A’s and 3 B’s. Is Teach complaining that she hasn’t attended college, yet? She speaks Swedish and perfect English. She’s delivered a speech to the UN, was TIME Person of the Year, nominated for a Nobel Prize and has said she would donate her $1.15 million USD prize to global warming causes.
Why not listen to a 17 year old? Debate with them. Understand their position. It doesn’t mean you have to follow their dictates, duh.
Teach listens to a 74 year old man with mental deficiencies who doesn’t understand global warming or Covid-19, and who wrecked the US economy. Ms. Thunberg didn’t.
Greta is so five minutes ago.

Kinda like Pvt. Rimjob.
Lolgf

Only with parental consent. Thought you’d learned that from your tour in ‘Nam.
She graduated from secondary school with 14 A’s and 3 B’s.
Now was that when she was skipping school?
Is Teach complaining that she hasn’t attended college, yet? She speaks Swedish and perfect English. She’s delivered a speech to the UN, was TIME Person of the Year, nominated for a Nobel Prize and has said she would donate her $1.15 million USD prize to global warming causes.
Fidel Castro addressed the UN, Hitler was TIME’s Person of the Year (back when it sort of meant something), Zippy was given a Nobel (for what we still don’t know, certainly wasn’t Peace), and we’ll see how mauch of that mil gets donated.
Why not listen to a 17 year old? Debate with them. Understand their position. It doesn’t mean you have to follow their dictates, duh.
When all she can do is scream, “How dare you?” and quote a lot of phony data, debating her and winning has as much significance as handing your head to you every day.
Teach listens to a 74 year old man with mental deficiencies who doesn’t understand global warming or Covid-19, and who wrecked the US economy. Ms. Thunberg didn’t.
Gropin’ Joe is 77 and Zippy, 59, so whom do you mean?
Thought you’d learned that from your tour in ‘Nam.
BWAHA!
Greta is so five minutes ago.
Yet Teach courageously attacks her every time she’s in a news story. When was the last time Teach won a $1,000,000 award?
When was the last time Teach lied?
When the rioters are in Atlanta and Wu Ping Cough is just another seasonal bug, the Lefties will have to go for global wahoo again. Now they can say, “Look, she won an award”.
