Because, like a courtroom testimony, you have to ask questions that get the statement on record. There are a lot of politicians who simply are clueless about climate change and others who have heard facts but reject it due to bias, political affiliation or through personal interest in companies who don't want climate change legislation. You have to get people to say it out loud and force them to be a part of that statement on record, so they can't say they didn't know.

I reuse things instead of recycling if posible because that is less poluting. I'mnit a Spanish citizen and at the moment I'm in a leagal batle with the goverement of the country where I have a care registered that I use less then 1.000 kpm a year, because they forbid me to rebild the car with an electric engine, that I can drive with the power out of my solar panels. I build aty the moment a tiny-house with certified wood and recycled from pallets, metal studs from recycled metal. I have a garden with plants that where trowen away for goats and sheep and have a dog that nobody wanted. I have a low pension because I left the rat race before the pension age. The land I live on is not mine, it was a waste place where neighbours have over century's dumped everything. I cleaned over a one year period and seperated the waste in the needed fractions for the different waste containers. I did the work with a shovel and wheel barrel. Because of that, I can live here for free, the owner will have a clean place after I leave. A beautiful Spanisch garden. The hill is sediment from what the sea has left... so the hill was before under the sea level and is some 50 meters high. I live some 20 meters above the sea level with sea vieuw and see every morning that the sea is at the same place where it was ages before. So, I find shells and other rests of sea life in the hill. in stones.When the sea level ever will be rise, it will not be for the first time. I ame somebody who is adapting his whole life at the situations and is not afraid to work for something. I love freedom, democraty and the freedom of speach. History has showen in every partt of society that the preachers of believes, cults, political partys, starters of busineses or what ever, are always better of then the folowers and that ther roules are only for the folowers and not for themselves. Money, welt and power is always gaind by fear, fear for the life now or fear for the after life. Noah did'nt build a machine to stop the rain, but he builded a boat. Not a carbon one ofcorse.... Give me all the names that you know of girls and boy's who have sailed the oceans in a race sail yacht made of carbon, that has a seven times larger footprint then one out of polyester and even much more then one out of wood. My head is not in the (beach)sand, we had just a heavy storm and rainfall period in this part of Spain, and a lot of shit from the land ended up in the sea. The last day's I walked in the sea water to getter everyday some 50 kg of plastic. Normaly I walk the beach and pick it up from time to time after the waether or the sea current has changed. You are welcom to my Spanish paradise to live for free on the land and to clean up in front of our own noses as everybody has to start doing. Not for the problemes of tomorow but for the ones of today. A five year period of abnormal weather is called weather, a period of fifty or more years of changed weather is called climat. When the climat is changing places is not global warming and the climat and the sea level has always been a changing thing as is the crust of the earth where we live on, earthquakes and vulcano's are prove of that. Humans have the idea to be the roulers of the univers where they are a litlle stupid part of it. We can polute a bit or a large part, but we have no influence of meaning on the univers or the climat. let's not listen to extremists with unreal plans for the future who chase people away from the solutions for problemes of today. Too crazy and panic is stupid, commen sense has to roule. Starting with cooling down the warming up of the cold war.... Atomic bombs are useless, nucliar centrales has at leats some positive result, electricety till we find or use the nolidge for even cleaner energy. Wars are the worst for human kind and the climat.

Due to the liberal immigration and asylum laws, the number of people with a migrant background in the city increases annually by about 3,500 or one percentage point of the urban population. In the district Rosengård - a district with just 22,000 people - 85% of the inhabitants have a migration background. Especially Muslims gather there. ..............So it is ONE district of Malmö where muslims make up the majority--- ONE small district with 22,000 out of 341,000 people. Telling swedish people are therefore the minority in the hohle city is as dumb as to to tell New York is Chinese while you are standing in the middle of China town.

Nobody asked her "why is the science important," and everyone here criticizing the similar question that was asked is missing the point. The congressman asked if she could "expand on why it is important to listen to the science." That's his way of allowing her to talk about it, not a question about whether it is important.

@theeverlastingspiral , science is not "controlled by politics." If it were, the scientists around the world would be expected to follow the political tendencies of the regime controlling their home country. That's not what we see. Instead, we see robust agreement among scientists, because they overwhelmingly follow the evidence and argument, not politics. And even if statistics could be manipulated, it's not likely that manipulated data would last long under peer review, replication, etc. Scientists are rewarded for falsifying the claims of other scientists, so claims that survive have to be more than political manipulations.

Q: Why should we listen to the science? A: "Why would you not listen to the science?" -Greta Brilliant

Good job Greta, we all need to think all over again and change our life style before we loose Mother Earth all together, look at the Bahamas why and how it is suffering from climate change, we need to start being more conservatives and less consumerist beings when we are using up all the resource and dumping which is also effecting islands all around the world when the system has failed us all with greedy corrupted leaders who are only enriching themselves quick cash and not thinking what the consequences will be?

F Ur Feelings ! Well she literally said what report at the beginning sooooo :0 and it was really a waste for Greta cause these officials asked the dumbest questions that could be answered by 5 y/o’s. If you think for a moment that us young people aren’t very educated and that we don’t care about these subjects you’re wrong and you’re going to realize one day how stupid you are to belittle the future generations of the world. You like many others are afraid of us. Whether you like to admit it or not, this (CLEARLY) better educated, young activist, threatens you in a way that makes you want to belittle her. Imagine making fun of opinionated teenagers who actually care about politics and our future. Can’t relate.

Adults: Kids only care about Instagram, Snapchat and Minecraft, are spoiled and entitled... yet when they are passionate, informed and articulate, they’re told “no, not that way. Sit down and let the grownups talk”. This young woman is informed, has facts and has them checked, is multi lingual, is articulate and passionate. She is not an actor or a puppet or has her parents manipulate her. She is her own person and she is starting movements that could very well help the world survive. Go, Greta! I admire you and I am cheering you on. You are an amazing and powerful young woman and people are listening to you. I can’t wait to see what you will do in the future.

It's amazing how the "politicians" do/say the same old things, defending capitalism and their old positions. Not once did they open the report they gave her. They questions they ask they already know the answers to. This is all political PR. Nothing more. Asking "how to get more people involved is a lame question when Greta has already done it! Watch her and listen to her. These politicians will go on with living their lives the exact same way. Nothing significant will be done until it's too, too late. And too, too sad.

This LITTLE girl will be 17 after the new year

Read to the end - The Arctic ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday from Consultant, at Bergen, Norway. Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers all point to a radical change in climate conditions and hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic zone. Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes. Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the gulf stream still very warm. Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report continued, while at many points well known glaciers have entirely disappeared. Very few seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic, while vast shoals of herring and smelts which have never before ventured so far north, are being encountered in the old seal fishing grounds. I apologize, I neglected to mention that this report was from November 2, 1922. As reported by the AP and published in The Washington Post - 88 years ago!

Well done NBC for spreading the message.

When a 16 year old is more intelligent than the President Of The United States and all of congress.

why would they ask why it is important to listen to the science?

See, the problem with the ICPP report is the fact that all it does is measure the growth of carbon in the atmosphere, not what humans put into the atmosphere. The earth has been sustainable for at least 2 billion years. Ever since the earth has been around, the suns gamma rays constantly beat on the magnetic poles and the ozone layer. When the sun beats on the earth, the magnetic poles are weakened, and the nitrogen and oxygen in our atmosphere can't hold onto our magnetic field so to say. And you can pretty much guess how the ozone layer is being destroyed by the sun.

What a joke! Fear mongering at it's best! Shame on her parents for pimping her out like this!

Since a train requires some CO2 but far less then air travel. I will modify that after I post this. As far as coming to America it’s my understanding that she sailed. The fact of the matter is that she has sacrificed her youth to combat problems that were generated from before she was even born. She walks the walk, and talks the talk. Keep watching videos on her.

197bbm 498bvvff Oh I see...You were trolling. Well if you look at the evidence this is clearly not the next “ice age”. There is an abundance of evidence to show that human population growth, activity and industrial behaviors have caused the ecosystem to become warmer. These last 4 years were the warmest years in recorded history. (Google it). Also, Look at all the flooding, wildfires, increased intensity of tornados, loss of species, loss of coral, loss of habitat...etc. The list goes on and on. All you have to do is pay attention and educate yourself on the subject.

Really these grownups need the 16 year old to convince them so that they can take any action?

I had no idea that the US Congress brought this girl in to speak! What? Haven't these people got something to do?!! What in the world are they thinking?!! This is *so wrong on so many levels* .
