Speaking at a climate rally in Berlin on Friday, Greta Thunberg mocked President Biden’s attempt to address climate change through his “Build Back Better” agenda.
“As we move out of the pandemic, many are talking about using this as an opportunity for a green sustainable recovery, whatever that means,” the 18-year-old Swedish activist said. “And world leaders are talking about ‘building back better,’ promising green investments and setting vague and distant climate targets in order to say that they are taking climate action.”
In his address to the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday, Biden announced that the United States would double its financial contributions to help developing nations combat and adapt to climate change.
In his speech, Biden touted his “Build Back Better” agenda, which includes an array of domestic initiatives designed to reduce U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, and said it could be expanded to include “sustainable investment in projects” abroad.
“That’s the idea behind the Build Back Better World,” Biden said.
Thunberg was unmoved.

“The fact that we are in a crisis that we cannot build, buy or invest or way out of seems to create some kind of collective mental short-circuit among the people in power,” Thunberg said. “And the longer they pretend that we can solve the climate crisis within today’s system, the more invaluable time we will lose.”

18 years old and still waiting for puberty
18 YO idiot girl without a clue, lecturing old senile bastard without a clue.
Now that’s funny.
She’s an ugly, hateful kid. I don’t feel sorry for her.
Yep, when Joe stolen loses Greta, he is really in deep doo doo.
I’d be happy if the RATS would start creating full, correct sentences.
Both Thunberg & Biden put together probably couldn’t conceive a normal thought. Don’t even suggest them working on anything as complex as the climate.
Pigtail Summit?
It won’t be just her . . .
Greta’s mom and dad must sleep well at night when thinking of the wonderful job they did in training up their daughter.
Hasn’t this deranged walking, talking Chucky doll used up her 15 minutes of fame?
Enough already of this little creep!
Greta, move to China and then get back to us.
I put Greta as a metaphor for Chicken Little and Lying Biden as the boy who cried wolf. Between them both they could give the human race one hell of a ride!
Oh, I agree she’s nasty and hateful.. but she also has a lot of documented mental issues for which her parents should’ve gotten her treatment, and instead they exploited her for financial gain. I blame them more than Greta herself.
When even Greta Thunberg mocks you, you know you’re in deep trouble.
