Greta Thunberg called on Siemens AG to stop, delay or interrupt the building of a coal mine in Australia

- Climate activist Greta Thunberg has called on German engineering group Siemens AG to review its role in helping to develop a coal mine project in Australia.

"On Monday they will announce their decision. Please help pushing them to make the only right decision. #StopAdani," Thunberg tweetedEnvironmental activists are concerned that the continued use of coal as will lead to higher emissions of carbon dioxide, a gas which is linked to global warming. Engineering giant Siemens has said it will decide by Monday on its involvement in the development of the mine which is being built by India’s Adani Power, its CEO Joe Kaeser said on Friday.

The Australian government last year approved the construction of a new coal mine in Queensland by Adani that is expected to produce 8-10 million tonnes of thermal coal a year. Australia is one of the world’s largest carbon emitters per capita because of its reliance on coal-fired power plants. The coal from the Adani project is destined for export and would be burned in India.

People don’t fall for it. It’s a U.N bot. They’ve lately been using teenagers to propagate their propaganda.

👏👏👏

“How dare you”

I don't think Australia is currently in a position to build anything except for a fire brake right now.

Cmon people GretaThunberg has a PhD from the University of mommy and daddies climb to fame. She is definitely credible enough to influence a company like Siemens

no one cares what the little twit does anymore Reuters

GRETA go back to school

Earth first....we'll mine the other planets later.

Did TheOnion buy Reuters?

Oh good cave to a sixteen year old propagandist.

How about urging Germany to stop brown coal mining today!

Nah, she's not being manipulated. This is just what teenagers do all the time.

Greta Thunberg will donate here 20% of donations for Australian fire? no, because she wanna get rich by donations.

why isn’t GretaThunberg in China persuading them from building Coal fired Power stations-if Aus don’t supply Coal,China have other options

They’ll need the mine to power those electric cars! Gas engines are the answer

Who is paiyng the strange girl?

Thank you GretaThunberg! You continue to inspire us to be better.

Who does Grega have advancing to Super Bowl?

Yeah I'm sure she made that request on her own without any and I mean any input from her handlers or coaches GretaThunberg

Why would a multi-billion dollar company give 2 shits what some teenager has to say? Do y'all realize how idiotic it looks when you try make these narratives look serious?

Has this thing ever approached Communist China?

Great terimaakichot greta ☺️

Ban all coal mining worldwide ASAP!

Nice work girl! Well done you GretaThunberg

Smart girl.

It has to do with union because one swallow doesn't make a summer

Yes

Neoliberal Goebbels took over Reuters, this sort of madness never ends up well.

Going to subsidise Australia for their export losses?

Small girl big God.

Greta lixo

Go away Greta

Hope they will act....

Thunberg inspires me.... to mute key words and names on Twitter $TWTR

Very nice.

I think you meant to say her handlers that control her social media GreatAwakening ClimateHoax

Who gives a shit what this spoiled child thinks? Certainly not this guy.

Her handlers, who use her as a puppet bought and paid for, must have money involved in this project to not be completed!!

pnbrown13 Re-Greta GO HOME, get back to school

航空機の環境にやさしい電気モーターを作っているSiemens AGが、石炭開発をしていたというのは、意外で、ブレてるね。

The seemingly low IQ and insecurity of most of the people below disparaging a brave young girl like Greta Thunberg to stand up and speak for her generation just explains why we have the asshat of a President in the US. Seriously look in a mirror and pick up a book.

Shouldn't she be in school?

The sheer fact that what she says is covered by Reuters proved that the media cannot be trusted. And that’s terrible for democracy.

Who cares? Once she has a degree in ecology we'll be inclined to hear more than a brat puppet.

Shouldn't she be in a math class somewhere?

Why not to called the people that will use the coal to think another option? Why not to propose realistic alternatives to the coal? She needs to understand is not a “market” problem, is a human behavior problem! Her message is going in the wrong direction...

Has Greta called on China to stop building all of those coal fired power plants yet? No? HOW DARE SHE!!!

She gonna have her minions light more fires?

When 'Greta Thunberg' speaks... the world reacts like this 👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇

That’s the 🔑. Power against big business houses & minting money by blackmailing them . Fraud Greta.

So stupid! If SIEMENS doesn't build it some chinese company with ZERO workerprotection and ZERO emission standards will come, do so and grab the money. In which way does the environment benefit more Greta? This must be clear to every child imo.

So what? Do you normally provide coverage of children's views on business strategy?

Kids this days...

Greta chill

She should visit China once in a while. Oh wait......
