16yo Blasting Politicians at '19 UN Climate Summit 1

2019 UN Climate Action Summit 16 year old Greta Thunberg asks "How dare you" expect her generation to clean up their mess.
This was in NY and no one had heard of this teenage activist from the other side of the Atlantic but you can tell the audience quickly shifts from polite listening to a little girl to "oh. Oh she actually has something to say."
"People are suffering, people are dying, entire ecosystems are collapsing, we are in the beginning of a mass extinction, and all you can talk about is money and fairytales of economic growth."

I'm not wholly with the idea that everything going on with the climate is because of CO2 but that would be nice if it were because then we could just ask all the politicians and governments and people of the world to just do one thing.
Which, we have been, and they can't do, so I found Ms. Greta's speech pretty cathartic.
Even if you don't believe in global warming or mass extinction or that either could adversely affect us... eternal growth is a fairytale and we're heading toward a major shortage of numerous resources and we're asking future generations to live in an economic depression more devastating than we can imagine.
Because we set up a system of growth and have no intent in considering changing it even when the growth becomes superficial and even detrimental. Truthfully we're not asking for much (or near enough) by making countries sign pledges to cut CO2 emissions.
Which, for the US's part, almost never meets.
She doesn't want to believe that they're evil... but I do. "fuck you, got mine" is the summation of the last few generations. Oh sure they have sympathy for what other peoples and their future generations will face but they won't actually do anything about it.

Good news Greta, your generation is useless and you won't be able to clean up your own mess let alone anyone else's. Enjoy the apocalypse.

I mean... I basically missed all of 2019 
People made a thing about this? I'm surprised to learn people made a thing about anything climate related.
Or did they just make dumb memes?

Remember how people were fighting over toilet paper? Imagine when that toilet paper is food, and that store is the world. I know where this is headed. The world hates what it would take to actually make the 180 spin to fix this...
