You Have Stolen my Dreams and Childhood': Greta Thunberg Sobs as She tells World Leaders: [Trunc]
Daily Mail (U.K.) ^ | September 23, 2019 | Marlene Lenthang

Environment activist Greta Thunberg made a fiery appearance at the United Nations Climate Summit on Monday where she broke down in tears while furiously scolding international delegates.

'I shouldn't be up here. I should be back in school on the other side of the ocean. Yet you all come to us for hope. How dare you. You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words,' the 16-year-old Swedish activist thundered in her speech at the Climate Action Summit 2019 in New York.

Thunberg was seen at the UN headquarters Monday morning with an enraged expression on her face as US President Donald Trump upstaged her entrance by walking in behind her flanked by news reporters.

The UN summit convened to have nations make plans to confront global warming and rising fossil fuel emissions.

From the linked article...

“In the final act, ACT VI [Crescendo], I wrap up the series by divulging that the very foundations which have financed the climate “movement” over the past decade are the same foundations now partnered with the Climate Finance Partnership looking to unlock 100 trillion dollars from pension funds.”

Follow the money...as usual.

I care very little about what a 16-year-old thinks about climate science ... well, what she thinks about anything for that matter.

Now if she could produce a post-graduate thesis she authored from an accredited science/technology university ...

I was reminded of all the “dreams and childhood” stolen from the unborn. I’d like someone to ask her about that.

She is an illustration of why our children should never be allowed to set foot in government schools

The irony is that all these leftists who are using this moppet for their political ends, had they known she was going to be born autistic, would have aborted her.

I really couldn’t care less about the delusional hyper emotional outbursts of some autistic Swedish teenager.

This is enlightening and horrifying.

Everyone who excuses themselves for use of FB, Twatter, Instygram, YT, needs to re-evaluate their participation in their own demise, while doing whatever possible to further a breakup of these networks.

Pugmama’s link needs to go viral.

Scientific consensus in the 1970’s attributed Aerosols contributing to Global cooling. Now they are attributed to Global warming. Politicians lick their fingers and stick them in the wind. Scientists understand their sugar daddies and issue reports as required. From the middle ages it has also been like this.

She was glaring at Donald Trump as he walked in. Why oh why can’t we boot the UN headquarters over to Geneva or somewhere and keep all these tiresome moochers and frauds out of our country? Let them all bloviate to each other somewhere else.

The ones she should really be angry with are the ones that stole her brain.

I do believe that fault would lie with the radical Left and her Antifa parents.

Swedish, huh? Aren't these the cupcake chicks who welcome the third world refugees and now Sweden has a crime and rape problem they can't fix?

Yeah, we really want advice from them. Especially one of their children.

***why can’t we boot the UN headquarters over to Geneva**

I believe the UN was originally supposed to be in a “neutral” area of the world like the AZORES. I wish it was there now.
