Climate activist Greta Thunberg was arrested at a climate protest in The Hague, Netherlands Saturday. Thunberg was one of the dozens of people who police detained when in the process of removing protestors who were obstructing part of a road in The Hague, The Associated Press reported. She was spotted flashing a sign for victory when in a bus that police employed to transport protestors away from the protest against subsidies and tax breaks for companies in connection with fossil fuel industries.

Feb 12 One crisp winter morning in Sweden, a cute little girl named Greta woke up to a perfect world, one where there were no petroleum products ruining the earth. She tossed aside her cotton sheet and wool blanket and stepped out onto a dirt floor covered with willow bark that had been pulverized with rocks. “What’s this?” she asked. “Pulverized willow bark,” replied her fairy godmother. “What happened to the carpet?” she asked. “The carpet was nylon, which is made from butadiene and hydrogen cyanide, both made from petroleum,” came the response. Greta smiled, acknowledging that adjustments are necessary...

Is it time for change at the UN? A recent petition has stirred global attention, calling for Greta Thunberg’s appointment as the UN Ambassador for Climate Action. Love her or loathe her, you can’t ignore her, she’s instantly recognisable and everyone knows where she stands on environmental issues. Greta Thunberg, the 20-year-old Swedish climate activist came to prominence in 2018, when as a schoolgirl she went ‘on strike’ from school to raise awareness of the planet’s climate crisis. Since then she has become a global icon, a champion for many activists around the world, with the power to muster protests...

https://twitter.com/DrEliDavid/status/1729608772190879898 Hi @GretaThunberg 👋 Is 🇵🇸 the new flag of the climate cult? So befitting that a cult that wants to economically bankrupt the West, also supports genocide against the West. Well done 👏

Climate activist Greta Thunberg was briefly interrupted today by a man who approached her on stage, after she invited a Palestinian and an Afghan woman to speak at a climate protest in Amsterdam. Ms Thunberg was talking to a crowd of tens of thousands when she asked the women to join her on the stage. 'As a climate justice movement, we have to listen to the voices of those who are being oppressed and those who are fighting for freedom and for justice. Otherwise, there can be no climate justice without international solidarity,' she said. After the Palestinian and Afghan...

Greta Thunberg is so thoughtful.

‘Oscars of oil’: What is the Energy Intelligence Forum and why are activists trying to shut it down?Greta Thunberg has been arrested while disrupting a major oil industry conference in London today. The Swedish activist was detained by police after she joined hundreds of other protesters outside the Energy Intelligence Forum, which is taking place at the InterContinental London Park Lane hotel in Mayfair. Executives of the world’s biggest oil and gas companies are taking part in the three-day conference which runs from 17-19 October, alongside financiers and UK ministers. Until 2019, the event was more transparently called the...

@Channel4News "You have to be on the right side of history." @GretaThunberg speaks exclusively to @Channel4News to make a plea to British politicians as she warns this summer's heatwaves are the beginning of a "rapidly escalating existential crisis" of climate.

Greta Thunberg will no longer appear at a large Scottish book festival this week, saying she does not want to be "associated with events" connected to the fossil fuel industry. The climate activist was set to appear at the Edinburgh International Book Festival, starting August 12, for an event called "Greta Thunberg: It's Not Too Late to Change the World," but said Friday she would no longer attend, accusing the main sponsor, Baillie Gifford, an investment management firm based in the UK, of "greenwashing." Greenwashing refers to a phenomenon of companies or firms that outwardly market themselves as environmentally conscious...

On June 6, Ukraine suffered an environmental catastrophe. The collapse of the Kakhovka dam in the south of the country sent water thundering downstream, killing more than 100 people according to Ukrainian officials. It wiped out villages, flooded farmland and nature reserves, and swept up pollutants like oil and agricultural chemicals as it made its destructive path towards the Black Sea. The causes of the collapse have yet to be established – whether it was targeted as part of Russia’s war in Ukraine, or whether it was a structural failure – but what is certain is that it is one...

Climate Change is a religion. We all know that.The University of Helsinki has decided to make that official by giving Greta Thunberg an honorary Doctorate of Theology at the ripe old age of 20.Pretty sure she hasn’t graduated from High School, but maybe I am wrong. I thought she dropped out to become a climate change activist. Now that she is Dr. Thunberg she can glue herself to Volkswagens or something. Isn’t that what activists with Ph. D.s do these days?Greta Thunberg was awarded the title of honorary doctor of the Faculty of Theology of the University of Helsinki.Thunberg is...

One of the more delightful aspects of being a dissident from the absurd apocalyptic climate doom cult is the ability to laugh at the decades’ worth of failed, yet quite specific predictions of disaster from purported “experts” that the media has gleefully trumpeted. The track record of the failure of previous predictions matters not in the least, as if mass amnesia has infected not just the media, but government, academia, and the corporate world. Yet, all of these commanding heights of our political economy are united in pushing forward with ruinously expensive schemes that cannot work to substitute unreliable intermittent...

Journalist Dr. Simon Goddek dug into Greta Thunberg’s background and discovered that it was no coincidence that Greta was discovered at a protest on August 20, 2018 and that it was Ingmar Rentzhog who discovered little Greta protesting global warming. On August 20, 2018, Thunberg, then aged 15, skipped school to protest outside the Swedish parliament for more action against climate change. Ingmar Rentzhog runs the company WeDontHaveTime and is chairman of the far-left think tank Global Challenge. Greta and her mother released a book four days after she was photographed at the parliament protest. And the rest is history....

Climate activist Greta Thunberg has reportedly deleted a 2018 tweet warning that “climate change will wipe out all of humanity” by 2023 if fossil fuel usage continued. The 20-year-old Swedish activist’s tweet referred to a grim warning from Harvard University professor of atmospheric chemistry James Anderson, who claimed that pollution as a result of burning fossil fuels is pushing the climate back 33 million years to an era when there were no ice caps at the poles, according to Talk TV. The tweet, dated June 21, 2018, quoted an article that cited Anderson, stating “A top climate scientist is warning...

On Saturday, Jack Posobiec posted a screenshot of a now-deleted 2018 tweet from Greta Thunberg, which linked to an article predicting humans would go extinct by 2023 due to climate change. "A top climate scientist is warning that climate change will wipe out all humanity unless we stop using fossil fuels over the next five years." Thunberg's post read from 2018. The website Thunberg sourced in her original tweet, gritpost.com, has since been shut down. "Time flies when you're on the grift," one Twitter user wrote.

VIDEOFake arrests have become very popular among the Performance Art Left. Among the most prominent of these fake arrest performers are Greta Thunberg and AOC. They make fake arrests seem to be so much fun that Greta Thunberg even performed an encore of her fake arrest in Germany with another fake arrest recently in Norway. Of course, she would never dare to stage a protest in the world's greatest polluter, China. They don't do fake arrests there. Instead they would execute the dreaded REAL arrest followed by a long term as a slave laborer at starvation rations in a prison...

If you've ever wondered if Greta Thunberg is an environmentalist or a Marxist, I think her most recent stunt will give you your answers. The infamous climate warrior is in the news once again, but not for fighting fossil fuels this time. Nope, this time she's protesting green energy, particularly against the use of wind turbines in Norway. She and a group of 10 people were removed from government grounds in Oslo for protesting for the removal of a wind farm. The wind turbines in question were built on the reindeer grazing lands of the Sámi people, the only indigenous...
