And it's not her native language

As a Pacific islander i cried. My ancestors been living on these islands for thousands of years. I come from an island just a few feet above sea level. We rely 100% on what we grow. Our high tides are becoming more frequent & more damaging. The taro is our main staple food along with breadfruit & bananas, but now most of our taro patches are becoming salinated because salt water is seeping into our underground water lenses making our only main source of fresh water salty. Fewer fish is also a major issue. Long droughts & frequent storms killing people, livestock & destroying farms.
I thank this young women for speaking on such issue. ❤️

Felt so helpless for her, knowing even with the end of speech and the applauses, perhaps a majority would have just continued with the usual life as soon as they get home.

When a child is doing the job of someone in power, we need to re-think who is in power.

To those people here commenting about her looks, language she is speaking, breath I think the purpose of you here looking at this video is to get the points and listen to her speech. She is brave to be able to stand on the stage to face so many audience. So stop criticizing her.

It’s time to write the universal declaration of animal rights.
Stop animal cruelty, stop the massacre of wildlife.

"i don't need your applause. i need your action," she thought to herself as she exited the stage.

To those who think "If the planet is doomed tf am I in school for?!", it is exactly what you're in school for. Not only because that would cultivate more scientists and engineers that are capable of understanding the issues and continuing to improve the solutions, but also because school would spread correct information which is the reason young kids know better than many older people and support Greta's point. So use her shouts as an inspiration to work harder, not as an excuse to be lazy or to blame everything on others. It is a progress, and it will only progress if everyone takes up responsibility they're capable of.

She is crying out for help. So many living things are crying out for help. We cannot ignore them. How can we ignore them? Thank you, Greta. Please keep talking about climate change--and acting to change things.

One of the scariest moments in my life was when I realised that adults weren’t as smart as I’d thought. I slipped into depression as well, because I felt like nobody cared about issues because if they did, they would’ve been fixed. As I’ve grown older, I’ve learned about activism and campaigning. I’m now running for the youth parliament in my country, and I’m getting involved in public transport campaigns and now this one too. Keep fighting, you’re inspiring others to fix these issues.

I saw she’s criticized from people a lot on internet. In Buddhism there are teaching that “The more correct your actions, the stronger the resistance.” It takes a time,but slowly you’re going to change the people in the world.

Dear my lovely Greta! As a gen Z like you, I fully understand your worries and frighten when thinking about the future of our world - the future where you and I have to live in for the next 50 years - because I always worried about it too. If I was there, I want to give you a hug. I know many people said that the world problems are more complicated and only a speech from an angry girl can't make any impacts. But from the bottom of my heart, I really appreciate your courage to speak up for our generation. You deserve more empathy rather than the criticism. Thanks to your speech, I've taken actions to save our environment by donating 10% of my monthly salary to cultivate trees in the National Parks in Vietnam and I promise to do this from now on to the rest of my life. Thank you for encouraging me to accomplish my duty with our Mother Earth!! 1000 applaud to you!!!

If Sweden needed to reduce emissions from 15 percent what about U.S.A I think for US we need to reduce like 30 percent a year

"People tell me I should be in school, learning how to be a climate scientist, learning facts, but why should I go to school to learn facts when the most important facts by the most educated climate scientists are ignored by politicians and society?" She keeps it real. Thank you, Greta!
