She told Swedish media that she will not be appealing the verdict.

      I don’t think you read your article. And Steve Forbes himself doesn’t seem to have basic logic capabilities.

      2023 was the supposed deadline for stopping the usage of fossil fuels, not the exact time humanity will be wiped out. Did you think this was going to happen in as little as one year?

      It will take decades. But with every year we keep using fossil fuels, we’re ensuring that it’ll be worse.

        The way the climate alarmist make it sound it will. Or maybe there is other factors in play but you can’t waste a good way to scare the populous into fear.

        Not like we havent have had climate change before industrialization… Those glaciers melted just out of fun, hell we were told the late 70’s it was a “micro ice age”. Been around the block, this is a ploy for control. If these elites really cared about it they would scrape their G5’s jets… Never gonna happen.

        Plastic pollution in the sea, yeah thats on us. R22 eating the ozone, yeah again us. But CO2 is a natural compound, some man made, mostly naturally made. So I’m keeping w/ the status quo.

          ploy for control

          I mean one might want to consider that oil production is also controlled by elites and brings them a lot of money, so it might be why media outlets like Forbes are being paid to call it “climate alarmism” lol

          But CO2 is a natural compound, some man made, mostly naturally made

          Natural CO2 is part of a mostly balanced cycle. That balance is no longer there. We’re at a level that hasn’t been seen before in human history. Higher CO2 levels have been seen on Earth before, but that was before our species.

          The temperatures are going to be high enough that there will be no “going out” in many areas, you’re restricted to air conditioned buildings and cars. If your AC breaks at the wrong time, you’re fucked.

              Why do you assume climate change simply means ‘it’ll get a couple degrees hotter everywhere?’ Will this ancient air conditioner allow Florida residents to continue living in their homes under 6 feet of water?

              What it means is more energy in the atmosphere which will be unleased in things like hurricanes, tornados, blizzards, floods, and yes, hotter weather. It isn’t going to change the entire planet into a desert climate, but it will make lots of areas uninhabitable.

      No she didn’t. Even her tweet quoted a climate scientist. Here, let me read the article you clearly didn’t.

      In June 2018, climate activist Greta Thunberg fired off an urgent tweet: “A top climate scientist is warning that climate change will wipe out all of humanity unless we stop using fossil fuels over the next five years.”

      Here’s some context that isn’t just Steve “human ballsack” Forbes complaining about something that didn’t happen.

      Even that article doesn’t say that.

      If you think it does, pull the quote from it that proves it instead of linking an article that you clearly didn’t read.
