I think your not putting enough value on the beach front property I mentioned earlier :)
As a pro-education supporter I took Greta's cue on activism and decided every time students skip school I will burn oil drums in protest until there is 100% attendance :)
It's true that not everyone has the sincerity of Greta. How many young people dare speak truth to power? Or adults for that matter.

How many young people will pretend to care about an issue as an excuse to not go to school... plenty... does she sincerely care aobut the issue... maybe, probably not. She probably wanted to play hookie and when she got swept into the spotlight she ran with it.
I have no issue with her climate activism itself, its good people are speaking out.. but when you use it as an excuse to skip school... no.
As I said gret skipping school to bring awareness to climate change is the equivelant of someone who is pro education starting an oil fire to bring awareness to education... its not worthy of praise.

:) Ok. You have convinced me! Let's get out there and set fire to some oil drums.
