Unfortunately it appears that the Senator doesn’t understand what Moore’s Law is, as: 1. Moore’s Law applies only to semiconductors in very specific circumstances 2. Moore’s Law is not an actual scientific law- it’s a historical trend 3. Moore’s Law is unlikely to remain true through the rest of this decade.

SHEISTER CAM She identifies the problem, great we’ve known about the problem for literally 50+ years. Time to find a solution. Ironically her own speech illustrates an issue she discussed about worrying about grand gestures with no action. Her entire speech nor any of her speeches have ever identified a single scientific proposal on energy transitions. Instead of actually research scientific solutions she has demanded that politicians come up with a solution, even though historically politicians have never done this. The Montreal Protocol was not created because politicians got in a room and determined the best case solution. They consulted with scientists who gave them data for what is necessary and then and only then did politicians get to together agree with the scientific proposal and proceed with the solution. Why on earth are we expecting politicians to come up with an answer, when they have historically never done so and to be frank are really not qualified to come up with a legitimate solution. Why does she never reference scientific studies on actual solutions? This is part of the problem with things like the GND. That’s a politicians plan, and it is NOT in agreement with really any scientific study published to date. ZERO scientific studies on energy transitions support a full scale energy transition in 10 years- you know why? Because the timeframe is not feasible based on historical and maximum theoretical installation rates, manufacturing capacity, sustainable innovation, technological readiness, barriers to entry etc.

Drew Stevenson You do realize that the Apollo program was extremely risk to such an extent that if that program was attempted today we likely would’ve canceled many of the launches. The astronauts back then weren’t even engineers or scientists, their official job title according to NASA was literally test pilot. Furthermore comparing the space race to a continental energy transition is unbelievably naive, and demonstrates a complete lack of understanding many of the challenges facing multiple industries for change. Should we pursue an energy transition? Yes, but it would be incredibly reckless to pursue a transition in a similar fashion as the space race and likely would not be possible with our existing regulations.

All that has changed this last decade has sealed the deal. We are consuming at an alarming unsustainable rate but the burning of fossil fuels is the biggest threat to the world today.

Positive feedbacks are already in effect, dangerous ones - consider pockets of poisonous gas that will warm the earth even more that lies under the Arctic; the arctic will be ice free in five years. If we are lucky. What will the dark ocean beneath the ancient reflective ice do with all of the suns energy? I wonder and hope it doesn’t warm the ocean more. That’s not even considering the gases underneath the permafrost in Alaska, Russia, or the ANTARCTIC - and each of these places are all melting at an “alarming” rate. Not to mention the breakup of the jet stream, the inevitable dying of the ocean and it’s acidification, and the increase of extreme weather events - 500 year storms happening every year as has been the case, wildfires and droughts, flood rains and heatwaves that will cook you from the inside out because your sweat will do nothing to cool your body when the weather outside is an oven. did you know we almost got hit by a giant meteor the other day? But, carry on. Deny deny deny and live and love while you can, like I said. It’s all we can do now.

Greta, you are doing amazing things for this world. People may not appreciate you, but one day they will see what you & many others started to do for us. Whether it be on time, or too late.

Time for our politicians to show they are capable of more than making sure they are elected or re-elected. Show us that you are worthy of the trust the people have in you.

Don't worry, we have leaders like Donald trump and Boris Johnson to lead the way! What could go wrong....

Unite behind the science and choose Atomic Energy!

This is so impressive that she has her PHD at her age. How else would she be so sure about it? Unless, of course, she was put up for it by some political activists. But who would do that, right?

"The real danger is when companies and politicians are making it look like real action is happening, when in fact almost nothing is being done".

Everytime I see this girl, my heart breaks and I cry😭😭😭

last chance. Kudos! A trillion more please. Every nation needs to allow reclamation of habitats, humans can live underground or in sky scrapers.

That is a very powerful speech.

THANK YOU FOR THIS BRILLIANT VIDEO. It should be shared everywhere. 100% FACTS.

Greta the IPCC report doesn't include methane nor the fact that the numerous self reinforcing feedback loops are now amplifying each other in 2 years expect our 1st blue ocean event in the arctic. After that I think it reasonable to expect a cascade effect. The situation is worse than you or the IPCC report purports. But you are my heroine nevertheless.

I'm not a scientist, so I cannot speak from my own experience, but I do have a couple of questions... It is said that our climate is getting warmer, OK, but we're coming out of an ice age, so isn't the climate SUPPOSED to get warmer? And then they say that the climate getting warmer is due to man's activity on earth, but I have heard scientists say that climate change is directly related to cycles of the sun. So, WHO is right? I agree that we need to be good stewards of what God has given to us, for that is the task of man, but we are also commanded to "fill the earth and subdue it," and that cannot happen if people are freezing to death because you won't let them burn oil furnaces.

THey are all right. All of these things can drive climate change. The main problem right now is that there is too much co2 and that has is trapping the suns energy, which then heats up the climate faster than it should happen naturally.

It sucks because I can’t do anything about it.. as long as the big companies are thriving, we’re doomed.

Girl: fantastic speech Everyone in room: leaves and goes back to status quo Piano player: were is my money People watching: like me...upset with leaders doing nothing about it

There is plenty you could do about it, but by the looks of it you don't have the discipline. It's much easier to just complain about other's on youtube and pretend you're not a direct contributor...

Merci petite Greta !!

Thank you Greta

I really like what this girl stood for but now it seems countries use her to say a couple words without doing anything about the climate 😐😐

this little girl is changing the world! amazing to see young people fearlessly rise up... we can hope!

*Stephem Hawkins approved this statement.*

Keep speaking, the youth of our species. This planet is yours to recorrect since my generation, mostly, is abdicating our responsibility. Please continue fighting for us and earth's fate.

And pretending we are wrong, what's the downside of a cleaner planet?

I love her!
