CNN's Zakaria Gives 15-Year-Old Forum to Push Climate Alarmism

On his Sunday show, CNN host Fareed Zakaria devoted the final segment to interviewing 15-year-old Swedish environmental activist Greta Thunberg, giving her an unchallenged forum to promote her alarmist views on global warming.

Thunberg -- who gained attenton by skipping school for three weeks to draw attention to her cause -- claimed that "climate change" is the "biggest crisis humanity has ever faced," and advised viewers to abstain from flying, eating meat and dairy, and receiving new merchandise as Christmas gifts, to avoid being "screwed" in the future.

She ended up lecturing that young people should "hold the older generations accountable for the mess they have created and expect us to live with."

"...Zakaria introduced the segment by recalling that Thunberg had spoken at the annual COP24 conference in Poland because she "has decided to make it her life's mission to save the world from climate change." He then showed a clip of her as she "spoke truth to power" at the convention by telling them that her future children may wonder why people like them did not act against "climate change" when they had a chance to."

And not for a second considering she flew ROUND TRIP from Sweden to Poland. Have her parental units been arrested for child abuse yet? Or was it the indoctrinators. Talk about hook, line and sinker. Heck I think she swallowed the whole trawler. Is she going to enroll at Dumbassistan U?

Hopefully she and harvard bound hoggmeister never hook up. As far as the mess "we created" and you are expected to live with? Do the right thing.

Merry Christmas. Yes, even to mx thunberg. Because, well, I'm slightly more tolerant than them.

As soon as I see Zakaria’s face on TV, I change the channels as fast as my chubby fingers allow it.

Nothing fights Climate Change like jetsetting around the world talking about Climate Change.

LOL. Yes, dear, algore, Prince Charles, rich Hollyweirdo and Silicon Valley lefties, UN poobahs and all the other Chicken Little hypocrites flying around in private jets, sailing their massive yachts. eating the finest foods of all types, indulging in conspicuous consumption at the highest level, and living in multiple 50,000+ square foot houses and palaces will get right on that.

“as fast as my chubby fingers allow it..”

I feel the same, about Zakaria and about having chubby fingers.. Texting is a pain - as is just about anything on a phone.. Maybe I could make them thinner with a potato peeler?

It's child abuse, in my view.. Not only are they using children, but they are also instilling fear in them that they need not have. Teaching conservation, respect for the environment, not to throw trash, use only what you need, etc. are good things, but teaching that the world is headed to an environmental Armageddon is abusive.

There is a certain amount of truth to that but not in the way she means it.

I blame older generations (including the one I was born into) for the mess they, and we, created when it comes to things like Socialist Security, Medicare, Medicaid, the alphabet soup of government agencies and programs, etc.

All under the guise of not wanting our children to endure life's hardships. We expected, and continue to expect, our posterity to line the nests of our golden years.

Fleecing for fleece, as it were.

The guy reminds me of the monkey banging the cymbals toy...especially when the monkey screeches.

"climate change" is the "biggest crisis humanity has ever faced,"

She's actually right, but not in the way she's been indoctrinated to think.

The planet is now entering a grand solar minimum that will see global temperatures plummet to levels not seen since the Maunder Minimum.

It's not CO2. It's not you. It's the sun.

Our sun is going to sleep. It does so every 400 years. When it does, sunspots disappear and its magnetic field weakens. This also weakens the earth's magnetic field, which allows more cosmic rays to penetrate our atmosphere. This induces higher cloud formation, which increases our planet's albedo, thereby lowering surface temperatures even more.

The climate is changing, alright, but it's growing colder - not hotter. Prepare yourselves for 25 to 30 years of bitter, ruinous cold.

Here's my advice for this lunatic. Eliminate your own life and leave the rest of us alone.

It is amazing to watch my daughters use nails of both thumbs to click away on their iPhones. I am slower than molasses on typing text messages with one finger typing and have to keep correcting the wrong letters because the keyboard on phone is so small.

LOL!

And we are to pay attention to this “wisdom” FRom the mind/mouth of a 15 year old kid?

Is she the female climate change version of David “Piglet” Hogg?

Both of whom have a lot more to learn about life before they spout off!
