GLASGOW, SCOTLAND – Swedish campaigner Greta Thunberg on Friday branded the U.N. climate summit in Glasgow a “failure” after a week of negotiations produced what some experts have called vague promises to cut emissions.
“It is not a secret that COP26 is a failure,” Thunberg told thousands of youth protesters at a march in the Scottish city.
She called the COP26 talks “a two-week-long celebration of business as usual and ‘blah, blah, blah.’”
“This is no longer a climate conference. This is now a global greenwashing festival,” Thunberg told cheering crowds.

‘COP26 is a failure’: Greta Thunberg says climate summit has turned into a PR event
GLASGOW, Scotland — Climate activist Greta Thunberg said Friday that the COP26 climate summit is a failure, lambasting the U.N.-brokered talks for turning into a public relations exercise.
“It is not a secret that COP26 is a failure. It should be obvious that we cannot solve the crisis with the same methods that got us into it in the first place,” Thunberg said.“The COP has turned into a PR event, where leaders are giving beautiful speeches and announcing fancy commitments and targets, while behind the curtains governments of the Global North countries are still refusing to take any drastic climate action.” She was speaking on stage shortly after a strike organized by “Fridays For Future” saw thousands march 1.6 miles from Kelvingrove Park to George Park in Glasgow’s city center — less than 2 miles from where the COP26 event is being held.…“This COP26 is so far just like the previous COPs — and that has led us nowhere,” Thunberg said on Monday as she addressed climate activists.
“Inside COP, there are just politicians and people in power pretending to take our future seriously,” she said. “Change is not going to come from inside there, that is not leadership. This is leadership, this is what leadership looks like.”
She had previously voiced her frustration over climate inaction at the Youth4Climate summit in Milan, Italy in late September.
“Net zero by 2050. Blah, blah, blah. Net zero. Blah, blah, blah. Climate neutral. Blah, blah, blah. This is all we hear from our so-called leaders. Words that sound great but so far have led to no action. Our hopes and dreams drown in their empty words and promises,” Thunberg said at the time.

Skeptics to attend UN summit in Scotland – Will praise Greta’s ‘Blah Blah Blah’ view of UN’s futile climate summitsWatch: Greta Thunberg rips UN climate summit: Chants ‘You can shove your climate crisis up your arse’ in Scotland rally – ‘No more whatever the f*ck they’re doing inside there’GRETA Thunberg has been captured chanting “you can shove yer climate crisis up yer a**e” at a snap rally in Govan. Hundreds of COP26 delegates have gathered at Festival Park to shun politicians for inaction over global warming…She said: “Inside COP there are politicians pretending to take our future seriously. “We say no more blah-blah-blah, no more exploitation of people, nature and the planet. No more whatever the f*** they’re doing inside there.”#
I don’t care about a commie high school dropout. Sure, she may have been brainwashed and abused as a child but, she’s an adult now and should be treated as such. Greta needs to grow up and get an education and stop the commie propaganda schtick.
Lets Go Greta!
She is just an Aspergers kid who couldn’t make friends and hated school; her rich influential parents got her out of it and into something -CO2 hate: all this is her therapy. Surely the world’s most expensive one!
Has anyone actually seen a diagnosis of Aspergers? I always thought that was part of her mom’s scam. In any case, she seems very close to the edge. This sort of public act of desperation calls for psychological intervention.
She’s giving the media exactly what they want. Can’t stop now. Her bobblehead will sell out in minutes.
Well, Greta seems to have picked up one important point about the Global Warm-mongers.
Yes, she is right for a change. I agree wholeheartedly with her.
Stopped clocks, and all that.
You beat me to it. Any idiot can speak a truth, it doesn’t stop them being an idiot.
Well Greta and I and Goreball the donkey agree about one thing, and talking about Goreball the cheap veep he was on the odious Beeb today droolling climate scientist lies in a very inconvenient manner to a pschophantic interviewer.

Yes but she missed the point that only a small minority care. It was amusing we had rallys in support in Australia and they got around 1000 people in Sydney and a few hundred in other cities. That is an indication of the lack of support.
In the cities – any notice in the countryside? Or is this a metropolitan crisis?
Inner city greentards seems to be the most normal demographic.
Possibly the first time in her life she has been right about something—COP26.
But my, she needs anger management training before she self destructs.
No, please let her self-destruct. I would pay good money if it was in a spectacular manner.
head explosion would be perfect
Time to pick her volcano. Traditional, innit.
“Time to pick her volcano”
Yes, but you need a virgin for that.
Look at her. Do you think that’s a problem?
Boom!
President Pedo thinks she’s luscious.
Mickey – Perhaps Slim Whitman’s “Indian Love Call’ might work again!
The classic movie “Scanners” comes to mind here.
Hell no.
I really have no tolerance for Scandinavians who export their toxic waste and screaming gnomes to foreign countries but
If this creature kills herself this would be reasons enough for the UN to install instant global marxism and shut the economy down so that noone else commits suicide because of global warming.
Then there would be a global Greta day,
a Greta week,a Greta Bobble Haed ,a Kink Kong sized Greta Statue at the UN building and a Greta first person shooter (you run around and call everyone who is not trans,gay,black or muslim a racist bigot nazi and slaughter all farting cows)
The last thing we need is a Greta Carbon martyr.
She must live long enough to become herself a villain(batman reference )
We just need to wait.
At one point she will violate the woke orthodoxy and make a crucial and unforgivable mistake (by using a gender 52 pronoun on a gender 53 person or even something worse)
and all her fellow zombies will turn on her.
It may be that after this disrespectful rant, the ptb may, finslly, turn their collective backs on her, and all the kids who skip school on Fridays may now be declared truants and treated accordingly.
And, I believe, that there is also a statue of Greta on a college campus in Winchester, Hampshire, England.
The University of Winchester diverted funds from campus development to erect a ‘vanity project’ statue of her, which has been angrily condemned by public and students. She also has a mural in Dublin, which was vandalised with the words: “George Soros slut” across it a few months ago.
She’ll just win more awards.
Just wait until the day she finally figures out she was a pawn. The ends always justifies the means for leftists, so the day she is no longer useful is the day they will cut her loose and sleep well at night. Then what will St. Greta do?
The appeal of an emotional child advocate, has built in obsolescence.
Someone should tell Greta that the Joan of Arc story did not end well.
Wait, don’t they teach Joan in schools?
Oh… This is Greta we are talking about.
Maybe it is taught that Joan of Arc died using renewable energy?
She did
Firewood is renewable, ask Drax
I wonder, when will she get to the stage where she can’t see enough Socialism being imposed on the “people” that she picks up a gun to really impose her belief system on us all, it’s happened before you know!!! I’m serious too!!! She wants a revolution as do all her ilk, but such events are frequently hi-jacked by those with lesser good intent!!!
Nor frequently, always. Never let a good revolution go to waste…
Well, if she can figure out that COP is a sham process maybe eventually she will grasp that there is no climate emergency.
In advance of that day, I think Greta’s parents should hide all the sharp items in the house.
One day she is going to finally figure out who stole her childhood
And she’s not going to be happy.
I stil think using a child with Aspergers Syndrome as a sock puppet was unethical.
Yes, I learned the word for that on here a while back.
Maybe ‘Pedo’: As in COP26 is just one giant PEDO…
I’m still waiting to see some evidence of the alleged climate “emergency”, “breakdown”, “chaos”, “crisis”, “disaster”, “catastrophe”, etc, pick an adjective folks!!!
Wait…Simon, Griff, Izaak, Ghalfrunt will be along any moment with idiocracy.
Scam?
JF
Sorry, that should have been first on the list, thanks for adding it!!! 😉
Run for your lives! The climate is changing…we’re doomed! DOOMED!!!!!!
Alan, it was warm out today. “And there you have it! We’re all going to die!”
Top marks for bad language, swearing like a coachman.
Apparently there are lot of notable people with the asperger’s syndrome. I just looked this website and found some well known names in there.
https://blog.ongig.com/diversity-and-inclusion/famous-people-with-aspergers-syndrome/
Yes I believed the young swedish women were polite, not foul mouthed like this one. Was she grown in a garbage can ?
I happen to be bilingual – Danish and English. Scandinavians swear using mostly religious profanities – not with obscenities. Polite Swedish women would not dream of using Swedish obscene words (of which there many juicy ones!). But Scandinavians simply don’t have the “feel” of what our English swear words really sound like in good company here. Thunberg is simply unaware of that, I believe.
Andy, that is a fair explanation. It chimes perfectly, with her lack of sensitivity not to mention her clear lack of understanding of most things in life, particularly climate.
You haven’t met enough young Swedish women.
That’s a problem that many of us share.
You are better off for it, just remember what good it do for Julian Assange.
I’ll drink to that. Too late now.
JF
She’s losing. Hence the language and behaviour. I find her remarkably distasteful. Women shouldn’t sweat like that
What do you have against sweaty women?
They leave marks on the upholstery.
And the sheets.
women can and should swear just as much as men.
I’ve met one or two women who’ve made be blush at their choice of “adjectives”!!!
It is a scientific fact that women DO sweat, on average, 50% less than men.
Women can swear just as much as men if they want. My wife being a case in point – mouth like a drain.
He said “sweat”.
Smart phone probably. 🙂
You misspelled Kmart.
My wife can get a bit sweaty too, in certain situations….
I never swear in front of my wife.
She’s always first…..
<badum-tish>
*audience applauds*
That would work better if the first line went “I never swear before my wife”.
like second rate comedians who swear to gain an audience.
She’s right about COP26. She would have been right about COP25, COP24, COP23…
What she hasn’t gotten right is that this is a good thing.
If this is what everyone keeps getting doing for thirty years (after 25 reviews), maybe there’s a reason for that.
Climate mitigation is practically impossible. The CO2 graph shows what the COVID Lockdown did. Nothing. Nothing is what can be done affordably.
So manage the loonies with a public spectacle. Use that to have a convenient conference where there is no pressure on the leaders to achieve anything. And carry on.
It is all “Blah, blah, blah”. That’s not a problem.
As the saying goes, doing nothing is a feature, not a bug.
Little RED riding hood Greta: who is paying you now that you have bitten the hoof of the wolf that feeds you?
If your wolf has hooves, you have a problem. If your wolf is feeding you, you have greater problems.
Yes that’s one pretty messed up aphorism. Biting wolf’s hooves while being fed by it, tough to picture. But whatever floats your wheels.
But if the “wolf” in is sheep’s clothing, it might have a hoof or four to sacrifice for “The Cause”.
That wouldn’t hurt the wolf a bit.
Technically 8, cloven hooves. :0-)
I smell a rat. I feel it in the air, We must nip it in the bud.
I like this.
Talk about your mixed metaphors.
My bicycle needs mixed metaphors like a fish needs a hole in the head
I do love a well mixed metaphor almost as much as a well turned spoonerism or a self supporting malapropism … that was a delirious furn of trays.
Just as long as they are shaken, & not stirred!!!
She was taken in by Vultures in Dove’s feathers or Dances with sheep in Wolves clothing to mix a few more metaphores. Greta might not be beyond a Damascene conversion
She’ll thcream and thcream and thcream until she’s sick
Violet Elizabeth Bott
She’ll thcweam and thcweam and thcweam until she’s thick…
Violent Elizabeth Bott
Must get the full impact of the lithp.
For once, one can agree with the superficiality of Greta’s words. Unfortunately, What she means by the words is the opposite of the needs of Climate reality. The failure of COP26 is a very good thing for the future.
The best thing to come out of COP26 is that there won’t be a COP27. As His Probably Soon To Be Majesty Prince Charles nobly informed us all, we have “already run out of time”.
I’d bet good money there will not only be COP27 but also COP28, COP29 and a never ending series of COPs. The only thing which would prevent future COPs is a name change.
You’re telling is that the final cop-out will never take place? Scary!
Right on it was the party of the year. Superglue the jets to the runway next
Would that he does too. One Charles lost his head and so to Chuckles
People like PC et al remind me of the (not so) great Emperor Caligula when he said, “I wish the people had but one head!”, because even that cold-blooded ruthless murderer knew he couldn’t silence everyone!!! My axe is kept very sharp just in case we need to remind the ruling intellectual elites, peeps like Al gore, Obama, PC, etc, of how vulnerable their position is, oh & I have working drawings for Madame Guillotine too!!! 😉 I don’t know, I’m 63 years old & still have a rebellious streak in me!!!
So what’s everybody so wound up about, if it’s too late, it’s too late, full stop, end of story!!! However, there will indeed be a COP27/28/29/30, let’s face it, all those free luxury hotels, that luxury booze & food paid for by Western taxpayers, who’d want that to end for the elites, every single Onanistic one of them, just love the freebees!!!! I wonder if the likes of Emma Thompson, Arnie, & co, will fly business class all the way from LA to Heathrow, then fly shuttle up to Glasgow, first class naturally, utter a few obscenities in token protest, then fly all the way back again in the same luxury most of us only dream of!!! The elites really know just how to live!!!
Don’t think so. They will be telling us that the world is ending in twenty minutes for the next 60 years.
Good for her. She’s hit the nail on the head. She’s protecting the Greta brand from association with the rats still on their sinking ship. It’s all over folks, I think we’ve won. Thanks Anthony
Don’t kid yourself….reading here on WUWT can give you the impression you are winning but the following factions are against you…
1). many people who watched Bambi too many times as a child and are now useful idiots for eco causes. They accept fighting CC as the right thing for them to do and are a large voter pool if they stop watching Steven Colbert long enough to go vote.
2). people for whom protecting the environment is their equivalent of religion and have decided that any kind of fuel is evil. They fight Big Oil, Big government, Big Logging, Big Cars, Big Box stores…..
3). Politicians who feel climate virtue signalling gets them accolades and more votes, and there are a ton of these voter schmoozers at every level of government, municipal to federal to the UN.
4). Politicians who don’t believe a degree warming is a problem but who believe that energy consumption is a fertile field for tax revenue collection and expanding government spending.
5). Numerous “eco -cause” donation button sites have found that a video of a forlorn Polar bear is worth hundreds of $K in donations, and tell any BS story for more button presses that gullible people listen to.
6). A lot of normal people just plain “accept” the media inundation you have seen on the climate crisis in the last 3 weeks prior to COP 26. Big money is behind the “CC Now” program that the media pushes.
7). A lot of people believe that Prince Charles, Attenborough, Mark Carney, and their team actually are ecological heroes.
So , with Ca. and NY outlawing household gas connections, Michigan insisting Canadian pipelines across their state be shut down….Ca, Wa, Or, not allowing midwest coal to be exported from their ports, coal mining permits being cancelled in Alberta…..NO sceptics have NOT won….
Excellent though depressing analysis. May I add some factions:
8) globalist oligarchs who profit from soaring energy prices and the attendant inflation of all other commodity prices (metals, food, manufactured goods, real estate, etc.)
9) authoritarians who seek power and control over gullible populations through fear and intimidation. Count the titans of high tech and their monopoly on discourse here.
10) minions, lackeys, and opportunists who serve 8 & 9 above for a share of the spoils. Count pseudo scientists and other academics among these, as well as media types.
Agree – to an extent. But Once the existential nature of the policy effects hit home, things may then change.
Lights going out, can’t afford to heat your home – that kind of thing.
Case in point – retail price of bottle of propane used for home heating up by 13% from this time last year (Spain)
Yes, selling inflated tickets to the charity ball on the Titanic can only go on for so long.
my impression is a lot more people are waking up to the elites hypocritical demands and the cost in their pockets of what they are advocating.
Bla bla bla. You sound like somebody talking about the permanence of the Berlin wall. The day before it came down. Most people couldn’t care less, no really, could not care less. Every poll shows it. This has always been a media hyped whipped up load of rubbish and it will disappear like the morning mist.
Agreed, Jay. Everything lasts until it doesn’t. Anti-human activities are eventually recognized by the populace.
I’m optimistic my cautionary Bla Bla, will cause reasonable people to speak up when they hear CC hype….
There is no “winning” when faced with science deniers like these. They’ve actually assembled a climate conference based on climate models that grossly over-estimate future planetary temperatures, and they don’t give a damn. A fictional catastrophe is more than adequate, with so much money at risk.
Corporate media was happy to keep Greta in the spotlight as long as she parroted the narrative of the Progressive elite. But that is no longer necessarily the case. The interesting thing now is if she will continue to get a spotlight.
When she lectured the UN about her stolen dreams she was controlled opposition. The powers that be may still have a role for her to play but she is no longer new and different.
Apparently she wasn’t invited to CoP26.
She knows nothing and is a loose cannon. Politicians don’t invite people like that to political sessions to be berated. Her days of being on the podium at these events is over. She’s even getting a little old to appeal to high school students looking for a “Friday off school party”
The more she spirals out of control, the more media will flock to her. Greta will be cited as the epitome of climate change destroying the world’s youth.
wOw! Just look at that picture.
Get that girl a shorter haircut, die the hair black, add a shoe polish Charlie Chaplin moustache, and all you need is a time machine set to the 1930s.
Greta’s facial expressions during the speech sure reminded me of another famous vegetarian environmentalist. Needed a faster lens to catch the flecks of spittle, though.
Is that a picture of Greta? I thought it was a tasteless image of a sex doll.
I always thought sex dolls had protuberances.
I don’t think the future is particularly bright for the little doom pixie, she’s already turned everything up to 11, it’s all going to deflate from here on in because her demands will never be met.
What’s she going to do for the rest of her life, turn up and scream expletives at everyone.
Yawn.…yeah whatever.
She’s totally irrelevant.
Maybe she can get together with AOC and do a double act.
AOC, has become an empty vial… kinda of a blah, blah blah… blah.
Sad though.
Empty vessels make the most noise.
Was she ever relevant?
Yes, Rory. But Cabbage Patch dolls were relevant for a little while, too.
Then things just sort of fizzled out for them.
I think perhaps Greta’s sizzle is starting to fizzle.
🙂
“Doom Pixie” is a beautiful turn of phrase.
Doom dwarf is more accurate, I feel.
Poison Dwarf even better!!! ;-))
Every “COP” has been a failure but not for the reasons she shrieks.
It’s a failure that any “COP” was ever called at all.
That’s exactly what I was thinking. How can any of the COP goat rodeos be anything but failures? They’re all based on a faulty premise and bad science.
Maybe they are meant to fail, and on to the next COP…
That’s two up … well done you.
That assumes that you thought their purpose was to actually address ‘climate change’.
They are simply there to add gravitas to the pseudo narrative…
D’ya know there was a time, way back, when I actually did believe that was their intended purpose. Was I ever naive back then.
At this point, I think the success of a COP is measured by the quality of the cocktails.
She’s quite the little demon spawn brown shirt.
I’m sure she will run for Prime Minister of Sweden or something some day. Yikes
Greta, Greta.. I’m glad to see that you are finally getting the point. Your next epiphany will be that they never will “solve” anything, because if they did they would be putting themselves out of a job. The whole clownshow is perpetuated precisely so they can go on these paid excursions every year and have an easy ride for the rest of the year at the taxpayer’s expense. Your final epiphany, hopefully, will be that there never was a problem to start with.
Yep, the whole ‘Green machine’ is a self licking ice cream.
Now that’s just plain creepy. You know that, don’t you?
I wonder if she will have grown up by the time the next Ice-Age kicks in, after all, we are overdue for one, Holocene Inter-Glacial running at 11,500 years now, Sun in shut-down mode, a very interesting global experiment in progress!!! Good job I have my woollen sweaters in the draws!!!
So who’s financing her tirades around the world? Can’t she get a tourist visa for China?
She should go to China and berate Xi to his face, it would be fun to see what would happen.
North Europeans with their Germanic arrogance fail to understand that using dirty language will not sell their message beyond their own small cultural bubble. I’ve seen Germanic north European sales professionals fail dismally in North America, trying to buddy up to customers using foul language and wondering why they lose all their deals. Greta is another such arrogant-ignorant failed sales person. But she could make it maybe as the lead singer of a Swedish death-metal band.
She is an obnoxious, arrogant, spoilt brat but also reflecting what her parents have drummed into her.

Someone beat you to it…
And
It is not a secret that Greta Thunberg is a failure, along with her handlers, her abusers, and her parents.
Greta was systematically traumatized as a child and has thus grown up to be a neurotic delusional adult. A walking tragedy.
She probably has grounds to levy a criminal charge of willful child abuse against her parents. With a RICO addendum if filed in the US.
“You’ve come a long way, baby” was originally the slogan for a new brand of thin cigarettes launched marketed to USA women called VirginiaSlims. As the song goes: “But that was yesterday & yesterdays gone.”
No one likes a scold … especially a stunted, none too bright, school drop out scold who isn’t operating on all cylinders.

Bi polar generator model?
And, no doubt, tons of prescribed pharmaceuticals for the World-Weary.
With a couple of coils burned out.
Have you watched Rachel Maddow?
I tried once, to discover what people were talking about … never again.
What Greta does not understand is that AGW is a conjecture based on only partial science and is false. I doubt that she has the education to really understand but she needs to understand the following:
The AGW conjecture may seem plausible at first but upon closer examination I find that it is based on only partial science and is full of very serious flaws. For example, according to the AGW conjecture, H2O is the primary greenhouse gas because molecule per molecule H2O is a stronger IR absorber than is CO2 and on average there is roughly 50 times as much H2O in the Earth’s atmosphere than is CO2. So if the AGW conjecture is correct, adding H2O to the atmosphere must cause warming. It is well known that warmer temperatures cause more H2O to enter the atmosphere. The theory is that CO2 warming will cause more H2O to enter the atmosphere which will cause even more H2O to enter the atmosphere and so forth. The claim is that H2O provides a positive feedback that amplifies any warming that CO2 might provide.
If adding H2O to the atmosphere really caused warming then one would expect the wet lapse rate to be greater than the dry lapse rate in the troposphere so that adding more H2O to the atmosphere would increase the natural lapse rate and hence increase the insulating properties of the atmosphere. But in reality the wet lapse rate is significantly less than the dry lapse rate so adding H2O to the atmosphere must cause cooling and not warming. So the feedback must be negative and not positive. Negative feedbacks are inherently stable as has been the Earth’s atmosphere for at least the past 500 million years allowing life to evolve because we are here. The wet lapse rate being greater than the dry lapse rate invalidates much of the AGW conjecture
.
The AGW conjecture depends upon the existence of a radiant greenhouse in the Earth’s atmosphere caused by trace gases with LWIR absorption bands. Such a radiant greenhouse has not been observed on any planet in the solar system with a thick atmosphere, including the Earth, and is hence nothing but science fiction. The absence of a radiant greenhouse effect completely invalidates the AGW conjecture. Without a radiant greenhouse effect CO2 cannot possible provide any warming. If CO2 did actually provide warming then the increase in CO2 over the past 30 years should have caused at least a measurable increase in the dry lapse rate in the troposphere but that has not happened. The AGW conjecture is clearly invalid. It is a matter of science.
Wm., Greta doesn’t concern herself with science.
Ein Volk, Ein Planet, Ein Greta.
The latest geoengineering talk is of increasing the salinity of the Arctic seas by blocking river discharge to the Arctic, including to the big Russian north flowing rivers the Lena, Ob and Yenisei:

Anyone here connected with policy people – can you tell us how far advanced plans already are for the invasion of Russia to save the climate? Presumably it will begin with a pre-emptive nuclear strike? The pre-war vilification is of course well underway.
“whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad”
That experiment has already been run. The soviets diverted those rivers for agriculture years ago.
Notable how her language is far more basic and prone to profanity since her parents are not writing her speeches.
Greta is just a little actress saying what she has been told to say and acting as she has been told to act. I saw her on TV once at a press conference and she refused to answer any technical questions. I know she missed at least a year of school. Where is she currently in high school? It is amazing how people will follow someone who really knows nothing.
Again, she has the backing of the “97% Consensus,” so no concern for her there. Obama bandied it about every time he came after the power generation industries, and no one challenged him.
She’s being kind. Did see not see them dozing?
The good news is she will live to see the planet cooling and ice increasing from natural cycles while CO2 increases. She will end up with a nice seaside mansion like the others though.
This was of course televised in the work camps of western China while making their quotas in silicon solar and battery components among other green products and at the many coal power plants supporting these camps. /sarc
The science question is whether this was anomalous COP crap or within error bars of median COP crap. I guess we’ll find out at Davos while Greta gets in some ski time.
I was predicting Greta would turn into a sceptic. She is now at stage 1: realising that it is all “blah blah” and that for all the words, no action will take place. The next stage (2) is to start looking at what will happen when the “predictions” of dire consequences materialise. That’s the point where we start trying to understand the “science” … and that inevitably leads to full blown scepticism.
Aleister Crowley, the ‘worlds wickedest man’ who headed Ordo Templis Orients – a society dedicated to the study of ritual magic, was widely acknowledged as the Antichrist, and was in fact a lapsed member of the Plymouth Brethren, probably the strictest Christian sect that makes the Amesh look like poodles. (apart from the Exclusive Plymouth Brethren, who took things a stage further),
Beware the disillusioned groupie, they carry the sharpest knives and know where the bodies are buried.

I want to encourage Greta to go more climate woke and demand everyone go climate woke with her.
Because everyone with rational thought is beginning to see the energy poverty abyss coming with skyrocketing natgas prices driving up electricity and forcing power plants to shut down. Everyone sees Dementia Joe Brandon doing everything he can to stifle US domestic oil and gas production while begging OPEC to increase output.
The Left is already climate woke, now we just to keep them there, not let them actually drag us there, as they (not us) go broke and wander in the desert of irrelevance for the next 40 years.
Okay, okay. I stole Greta Thunberg’s childhood. (She wasn’t really using it anyway.) I tried to sell it on ebay, but there were no takers. Finally I gave it to one of my nieces, who loves it. She gets to be a spoiled rich kid in Sweden, who doesn’t have to go to school.
For once she is correct. And it is good.

How did she and her supporters get to Scotland?
Maybe they went old school.
You win the internet today!
Dear Greta,
You are correct that COP 26 is all blah blah blah, but you’re right for the wrong reasons. The whole global warming scare has been nothing but blah blah blah since it started in 1988. All of the global ecological catastrophe scares since the Sixties have been nothing but blah blah blah. It has never been about protecting nature, it has always been about money and political control.
Nature is fine, the climate is fine, and fossil fuels aren’t going to destroy the world. Be at peace. Many real problems exist in the world, perhaps you can find a future focusing on one of them.
If they accidentally solved the problem, there would be no excuse for the next high cost party.
She has her audience pegged very well. They will fall all over themselves trying to appease her. And the secret to power, as her advisers understand very well, is to never, ever admit that she is pleased with their capitulation.
I doubt any of her anger is legitimate. Boris is eating out of her hand – thoroughly tamed and harmless (as long as you don’t care about having a power grid).
Likely the withhold her anti-depressants for several days prior to one of these Outrage Events.
Yawn.
You go get em Greta! Hilarious 😂…
When a compound is unstable it eventually decays or explodes. The Greta compound will be no different. It’s a time dependent thing.
Greta is becoming a loose cannon, and a threat to political leaders. She is literally the child showing the emperor has no clothes. They – the political leaders and other charlatans – thought they could drag this out while getting some big payola along the way. That pig won’t fly. They must now pull the plug on industrial society, and suffer the same fate as King Louis 16th. Almost comical.
Greta pointing out the emperors’ nakedness is the beginning of the end. Destruction of revolutions seem to originate from within.
SSSShhh!!!
Of Course it is Greta. Now figure out why…
ALL the COP series of events have been failures, from day one. Are we surprised? Nah.
But the catering was spectacular.
She is an empty vessel which can be filled with any garbage.
See what Bill says about Great.

That is the world currently in a nutshell 🙂
Of cause it is a PR event, that is why she is there
but theres ZERO actual realistic proposals to “change” anything from her either
be useful to have HER list what she reckons could be done
be a good laugh at least
It’s quite funny really. What does she expect people to actually do? How can you stop all steel production in China for example?
Perhaps she’ll come to realise that without fossil fuels there is no modern world.
“How can you stop all steel production in China for example?”
Try and run it on solar and wind. That killed it in Europe.
She went from untouchable pinky finger kid to unbearable middle finger adult overnight. Global warming is worse than we thought.
Almost there Greta. Keep poking.
“1.6 miles from Kelvingrove Park to George Park in Glasgow’s city centre”
George Park? Never heard of it. George Square, maybe?
Pot kettle.
I love it when the goofy little b*tch mouths off. Go Greta go!
Well the little witch is correct in that it is just a PR schmooze event. Let’s hope that remains the case.
I still think someone should invent a veggie burger and call it the Greta Thunburger.
Let’s not be fooled by Greta ; she’s a cheap little actress who likes a crowd and an activist who has found a cause. And she has a huge following. Above all she is an Anarchist.
Reminds me of someone a long ago . .
Such an angry little muppet. At least the anger is directed at the right people, if for the wrong reasons.
Once again, listening to the immature rantings of children is absurd, especially the rantings of a child with her issues.
Why do people care what this spoiled brat thinks?
Exactly. What parent lets their teenager tell them what to do? Why should the world be told what to do by a spoiled teenager?
Oh dear, Greta wasn’t invited – hence it is all blah blah blah. Funny she never noticed when she is invited anywhere.
Greta doesn’t need COP, she has the media. She’s headed for the climate nutter hall of fame. They will eventually retire her number and hang it from the rafters.
Greta holds a PR event to criticize a PR event.
Earth shaking.
The entire climate change movement is a sham. Greta caricature included.
This lifted my spiriits, the Gretamonster is all in a rage. FLOP26
“You’ve stolen my anti-depressants!”
The ideal spokesperson for global warming: a spoiled, emotionally-disturbed teenager.
