School Strike 4 Climate began with Greta Thunberg skipping school to protest the ‘climate emergency.’ The movement went global, with students across the globe skipping class in order to fight climate change.
It appears School Strike 4 Climate has hit a crossroads. A New Zealand chapter recently shut itself down to to it being an overwhelmingly white movement. Is this the beginning of the end for School Strike 4 Climate? We’ll find out!

Here is another step down in temps at the South Pole. This is at 10 hPa, and one spot has recorded a temp of -129F. This translates down to a spot on the surface which is reading -96F today, very cold. …. https://earth.nullschool.net/#current/wind/isobaric/10hPa/overlay=temp/orthographic=-313.87,-89.47,481/loc=-169.691,-80.389
Great pictorial representation why they had a bitch of a time sailing around the tip of South America.
Like many talented child actors, Greta goes by Harry Truman’s dictum: “Always be sincere, even if you don’t mean it.”
Since there’s no substance to her shtick, she needs another gimmick besides ostentatious angst, and Viking child braids. Maybe a horned helmet would buy her another 15 minutes of fame. And a battle-axe, if the helmet’s not enough.
Is her mother the battle-axe?
Horned helmet AND breast cups!
97% of fantasy film makers agree that breast cups maketh the heroine!
That and bikini armor
There’s a typo in there- I’m certain they meant to say “to it being an overwhelmingly Vapid, brain dead movement.”
There fixed it!
Who posted this one? Comical Ali (Baghdad Bob)?
The Greta thing will escalate.
So another “useful idiot” is biting the dust.
But it’s those that pulled her strings that are the problem.
(And some of them don’t realize that they are also “useful idiots”.)
And then there’s Joe Biden.
A rich but useless idiot.
An idiot that made a fantastic family money-making machine out of ‘public’ service.
Not so brilliant. Pretty much every Democrat has managed to do it.
Children and “adults” who have never grown up and who think they can stomp their feet at the supermarket checkout demanding their parents buy them candy.
Don’t forget the Participation Trophy.
So, where does Griff stand on this? It’s hard to know what to stand against or support until I see his opinion and do the opposite.
Probably waiting for instructions
We should be encouraging them! …….To eat their own.
Hopefully they will collapse under the weight of their own insanity.
Ironic. She’s too old to be skipping secondary school and doesn’t have enough credits to matriculate to a university where cutting classes is a time-honored tradition.
Greta will get an honorary doctorate
Good. It looks like non-white people are the only ones capable of leading this movement, meaning white folks can go back to normal fossil fuel and maybe nuclear energy needs.
And if anyone expects the vast majority of non-white folk across the globe to start cutting back on their energy usage, good luck with that.
This could put the whole green movement out of business.
But don’t worry. Liberal, woke white folk will rescue it from it’s near certain death and try again to foist this nonsense on the rest of us. I mean, if the world’s temperature increases by 3 degrees, instead of it being -15 in Fairbanks, AK in the Winter, it would be -12. What a disaster!!!!
White, black, brown, yellow, etc. community leaders in a democratic/dictatorial project to consolidate capital and control, a secular movement, not limited to redistributive change. They are full of euphemisms for-profit.
Rabid diversity (e.g. racism), huh. Some, Select Lives Matter.
Woke and [morally] broke. It’s an ethical (i.e. relativistic) religious thing.
The Greta movement is racist. It is racist because changes to reduce co2 will mainly impact the lower income groups which are disproportionately black. This is the dirty secret the Greta types hide.
BTW, where are all the black scientists that support AGW? Could it be this is a racist effort to eliminate colored people from the earth?
Oh, my!
I might run out of popcorn because of this development!
The Horror!
When she broke on to the world stage as an activist, I said she will be dropped after her “15 minutes of fame”, and it seems to be happening. She allowed herself to be manipulated by her parents (Who should be charged with child abuse IMO), caregivers, politicians and media.
I do feel some pity because her well known mental heath issues have not prepared her for the fall.
There will come a new generation loudmouth´s and I think that they will know about the exaggerations and lies that have destroyed the life of many young and they will point thier fingers at them as they scream.
if you are worried about seas rising why are you putting 100’s of wind turbines in the sea water displacment and building massive cruise ships and huge tankers container ships Also all building factorys etc. stopping the earth from breathing more you cover the earth with concrete the less it can breath
ah wokeness to the nth degree bites their own butts, now THAT- is Funny!!
Use their own tactics against them, that is how humans defeat these leftist a$$holes.
WWW. White Woke Wrong
Most Left on Left conflict revolves around leadership.
Lefts are driven – rightly or wrongly – by the fact they know what is best and if only they were in charge they could use these skills to make the world a better place.
Important words are ‘in charge’.
This is why Leftie groups tend to fragment. It is not they their core beliefs are different, it is leadership.
In my view this has less to do with Woke Issues and more with the fact the people involved weren’t allowed to hold the leadership positions.
Since this article is about race, let me just say Happy Juneteenth to all Americans. We are celebrating this day nationally for the first time, although it has been held officially in Texas for decades and observed by people across the nation.
Juneteenth was the day that Black Slaves in Texas learned that the Republicans had finally managed to free them from slavery.
“this whiteness issue seems a bit privileged”
This climate change”issue” is privileged.
Climate change alarmism is an extension of white guilt.
Where it is now necessary to “check your privilege” while complaining about climate change, the left eat their own
Love it haha
I reckon it might implode even faster if A few more parents developed a backbone And sued the schools for allowing their children out without parental permission. My niece was supposedly going to school at the last climate strike in Australia and her mother spotted her from her office window. Consequences for said niece have not been pretty. School is also not enjoying the process as she went to school and then went to join the strike without a parent’s permission note. Since the school’s policy is that children cannot go off the school grounds during the day without permission from the parents in writing, and parents will be advised by telephone if the children so leave, and neither happened, the school is dealing with a very angry lawyer mother. I’m quite enjoying the process.
