WASHINGTON - Swedish teenager Greta Thunberg, who shot to global fame for inspiring worldwide student strikes to promote action against climate change, took her mission to U.S. President Donald Trump’s doorstep on Friday with a protest outside the White House.
“This is very overwhelming,” she said softly into a megaphone after a march in front of the White House in which she walked amidst the other activists instead of in front - sometimes hard to hear over the cheers. The demonstration marked the first high-profile event of Thunberg’s six-day visit to Washington, intended to pressure the Trump administration and Congress ahead of a United Nations climate summit, where world leaders will be asked to ramp up their carbon emissions cutting to fend off global warming.
Thunberg has said she does not believe she can convince Trump or other climate change doubters that global warming is real, but hopes they will take briefings from “actual scientists and experts in this area.”The 16-year-old activist gained attention last year, when she started skipping school every Friday to demonstrate outside Sweden’s parliament.
So whats the deal with her,just good at getting attention? White girl much?
I hope the earth is ruined for her and can’t be fixed lol
MY WIFE AND I ARE IN OUR 'TARNISHED' SILVER YEARS BUT WE WOULD LOVE TO ADOPT GRETA, IF ONLY IN OUR IMAGINATION💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗 'AND A CHILD WILL SHOW THEM THE WAY' WE LOVE YOY GRETA💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
This girl is so fucking WOKE.
Are you taking another boat trip home Greta ? Us nasty fossil fuel advocates are forced to use Airplanes to cross continents.
She just doesn't like school.
GretaThunberg school is back in session now. You should be at school.
I'm all for doing things which help the environment. However not in for implementing socialism by guilt. Most solutions proposed include higher taxes, a bigger state, less consumer choice and decreasing living standards.
Please go back to school. Don’t forget to walk there from Washington
I hope more people will realize that we are facing a global threat... & ultimately we all need to change our lifestyles.
Clown.
Weather is getting hotter and hotter. Support you.
how sweet !? Please !
Hahahahahaha.
Stupid is as stupid does i suppose....
Shouldn’t she be at school ?
So did she walk to the US?
“Greta Thunberg the brainwashed, media created, tool of the left promoting the human influenced climate change hoax leads a tiny protest with more press than attendees outside the White House. No one noticed or cared.” Fixed your tweet. You’re welcome.
Who is financing and exploiting that creepy little girl? They are guilty of child abuse.
100ppm of CO2 = 0.0001
The bigger danger in this world now is hate!
Sad exploration of a 16 year old girl 😞
Billions behind this child, money plays and she is is the coin, for now
Sorry -- the renter leaves Big Mac wrappers everywhere ...
Climate Change is a lie
Wonderful. I wish there is a TREE HUGGER award. I mean, famous tree huggers should be recognized for their talks.
she will be a young adult soon and the cute novelty factor will be gone .
I heard she wore a petroleum based hard hat
If you're a grown adult idolising a 16-year-old enviro-brainwashed fanatic, seek help.
More victimization of a child who should be left out of grownup propaganda battles. But this is how they are.
In Brazil, the government 'activists' would probably stone her to death, morally. Good fortune to the younger ones that will change this sick world
Oh the new Malala! Will achieve nothing expect self-publicity. GretaThunberg
So many hungry bellies in the world and what you Joker are concerned on is climate control 😂
Epic kid propaganda.
😂😂😂😂🙄🙄🙄🙄
This girl has been brainwashed by her alarmist parents since she was 8 years old. She was diagnosed with multiple mental illnesses shortly thereafter. Kids do not belong in politics, especially because it's apparent that they are indoctrinated into their beliefs (like religion).
Why diden't she go to china or india ?
This poor girl is getting used big time and when her 5 minutes of fame are over, she will be one screwed up kid
That poor girl pushing pseudoscience
So why is she protesting in the US? Why not protest the biggest problem China?
Isn't it somehow strange that this protest is leaded by a child instead of a aware politician or a wise scientist?
What the heck democracy has to do with climate change? Moreover Greta looks like fake to me. Used by their parents maybe.
Is she a scientist? Mum? Studied the issue for years? She's being used, put on a pedestal so ppl can boast that kids care.
Yet china throws out more CO2 than EU and USA combined and no one tells those Communist/Marxist/Socialist=Totalitarians a dang word.... Agenda21/NewWorldOrder
DEPORT
Climate Change is a lie
I love seeing this positive engagement at a such a young age (there are many other examples). It's hopeful that our country will be alright.
And no one asked any tough questions, because shes a child with a learning condition...
Just a puppet on a string ClimateHoax
I am pretty sure she is some sort of droid.
Well if you have nothing to do with your life do what this puppet is doing around the world... of course you need someone to pay for all the bills...
Here's an easy-to-understand graphic that shows how man-made CO2 fits in the Earth's atmosphere ...
Greta Libtard oops Thuntard
Because teenagers know everything.
She has more guts than the entire 3 levels of US government.
Global warming is fake
My hero ❤
😴
Someone give her a Snickers to shut her up
Where is her daddy?
She is ignorant!
Stop exploiting children
Insane and disgusting to Push This Pseudo Science ....and do this to a child...BRAINWASHING EVIL !!! these people should be JAILED ..imprisoned for CHILD Abuse ..
I hope she used a clipper ship powered by wind to cross the Atlantic. She needs to go to China and India, they are the polluters.
This is so extremely stupid
She left her country, given a visa to come to the United States to protest in front of the White House, what a joke! Isn’t that illegal?
we're gonna dump the trumpster and air out the Oval!!
Child abuse
Imagine feeling so threatened by a 16 year old that you gotta talk shit online.
If we don’t listen now....
Show me the wide angle shot, did the same 35 people from her boat arrival show up? Who cares what a puppet child has to say about something she knows nothing about.
She use fossil fuel to get to those doorsteps?
Little douchebag
She needs to go back to Sweden.
Conservative’s heads just went 💥
I wouldn't suggest sending a 16 year old girl to meet with the CCP on destroying their economy 😂
This is great news but why aren't the US teenagers organizing like this in the states? They are going to inherit what remains after this administration and it may be beyond repair. There were pending lawsuits but like anything in the court system, there are no updates on it.
I really wanna see her in China
Send Greta to China. She can walk across North American and board a slow boat to China. I’ll send her a map. ClimateCrisis Fools
What would be REALLY BRAVE would be to walk to the doorstep of the Chinese government or the Indian government. The BIGGEST polluters on the planet. But then again. You're not REALLY SERIOUS.
Well in Sweden they're all educated and almost all atheists. They dont let ignorant shits get in the way
We're not worthy .... 😬
Yet china produces more CO2 than the EU and USA together and they dont give a flying Fook about climate change and no one dares tell those Communist/Socialist/Marxist=Totalitarians anything. These sneaky politicians now a days are exploiting kids to achieve thier Agenda21/NWO
She better have the correct papers or he will send her back! O ya and don’t get sick
Get the ships out of the Ice, that they are stuck in, that's melting...apparently.
The only reason she shot to fame was because of the media, and the money sponsoring her little trip. Why you are so enamored? Why are you so obsessed? Why has her Andy Warhol moment lasted far longer than it should have? No excuse me, I need to go idle my car in the driveway.
Time to board the Yacht for Beijing and Delhi.
Breeze_CA Yawn.
Send her back!
