It's a new decade,* so it's time for a new round of panic about the weather killing us all. Swedish child-priestess and chronic truant Greta Thunberg is at the 2020 World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, this week, because that's where the spotlight is. And she's scolding all the grown-ups for not doing what she wants when she wants it, because Veruca Salt wasn't fictional.
I was scared of the Boogeyman when I was little too. I just didn't have crowds of adults applauding my cries of fear:
Watch Greta Thunberg admonish world leaders for doing "basically nothing" to reduce carbon emissions despite evidence of a looming climate catastrophe. https://t.co/A8ULo8dIeQ pic.twitter.com/jpGiMClFzf

I would like to say something that I think people need to know more than how I deal with haters... [laughter, applause] In chapter two on page 108 in the SR1.5 IPCC report that came out in 2018, it says if we are to have a 67% chance of limiting the global average temperature rise to below 1.5 degrees Celsius, we had on January 1st, 2018 about 420 gigatonnes of CO2 left to emit in that budget... With today's emissions level, that remaining budget is gone in less than 8 years. These numbers aren't anyone's opinions or political views. This is the current best available science. Though many scientists suggest these figures are too moderate, these are the ones that have been accepted by the IPCC... I know you don't want to report about this, I know you don't want to talk about this,

Recently, 500 scientists have said there is no climate crisis.
Piglet Hogwash is more queer than Mayor Butt plug.
Baby Yoda?
There are plenty of scientists saying there is no climate crisis. The chief climatologist in my home state was fired by the liberal governor because he didn’t believe in global warming. Liberals say there is a ‘consensus’ only because they ignore anyone who goes against it. So there is a consensus of everyone who agrees with the consensus.
And how many of those going to Davos arrived by private jet or business class air travel? Do as I say, not as I do.
Did you and Laz already call dibs?
Only idiots listen to children.

Since Veruca Salt is referenced I thought you would like to see a video of the band -
Veruca Salt is an American alternative rock band founded in Chicago, Illinois, United States, in 1992 by vocalist-guitarists Nina Gordon and Louise Post, drummer Jim Shapiro and bassist Steve Lack. The band’s name is inspired by a fictional character created by Roald Dahl.

Her dad writes pretty well...
LOL! 2019 Puppet of the Year.
One of my favorite songs from the 90s. Louise is the blonde and one of my favorites from that era.
LOL!
They’d be crying “Uncle” by dinner time.
PS: does anybody cry “Uncle” anymore?
(Ask yourself if you can recall another minor in your lifetime who brought anything to the intellectual table.)
