It is based on the unanimous consensus of every single scientific organization on the entire planet.
Setting themselves on fire would be as productive as hooking schoolYes. We should not take the future of the next generation seriously until they set themselves on fire in the streets.
Greta is becoming a modern day Joan of Arc.
Again the consensus of scientists, has been exaggerated beyond it meaning,
The consensus does not include CO2 sensitivity.
Your whataboutism is unimpressive.What big sacrifice are those that are against abortions taking when they just go out and hold signs? What sacrifice are those people making when they protest gay marriage? Not all protests have to have the person sacrificing for it to be a valid protest.
And they appear, as predicted.
It is ignorant and naive to make assumptions about something before we have supporting evidence!It's ignorant and naive to think that we can dump millions of years worth of carbon deposits back into the atmosphere without having a significant impact on the climate. Ecosystems are built on a delicate balance and if it's disrupted too much, species start to die off. No one knows exactly how climate change is going to play out. But it WILL cause problems, and we should act to prepare and to minimize it.
Yeah. Hurricane season is nothing new and you wish to blame it on climate change. :lamo I wonder if monitoring CO2 does any thing? Logically thinking, it does not.

Most of the kids will ditch the rally and go smoke dope and play video games somewhere. They know when they are being manipulated by grownups.
I’d like to see a statistic on sales of abortion pills in a month or so.
We are on the gulf coast, we get tropical weather, it happens.
Lots of development, means more ground covered in concrete, and faster runoff to drainage.
Houston has been flooding since it's founding, and does a great job of dealing with it,
but it is really nothing new.
HCFCD - Harris County's Flooding History
Sea levels rising and the Gulf of Mexico reaching temperatures unseen ever in history are all contributors to the epic and historic flooding in Texas.
The older generation is replaceable. Young people are replacing them.

Thankfully they all aren’t afraid of their shadow.
BTW, what do you want to change the climate to? Or is this an unfair question?
And what do you say to other nations that get deleterious effects due to one nation changing it to suit their own ideas of what weather is supposed to be like?

How about each school organize a field trip to clean up a park, river or trash-ridden neighborhood? There are so many more productive ways to get kids involved besides the taxpayers funding a day of hooky to go stomp around the streets.Are we suppose to believe taking a day off from school is some big sacrifice on their part.
Why not do something that would actually counter climate change like turning off the airconditoners for the entire school year. Of course that wont happen because that would be an inconvenience for them. Something like that i would respect. Giving yourself a day off from school... not so much.

Can kids take a school-sanctioned day off for anything now, like 2A rights or anti-abortion?
It's ignorant and naïve that the planet can dump heavy amounts of greenhouse gases (caused by the evaporation of heavy rains) back into the 'sphere w/o having a significant impact on the planet. Ecosystems...Prevent climate change. Limit the rain, man.
The assumption is that we know how the climate will respond to the forcing warming from added CO2, yet we do not have anyI'm not making assumptions, we have historical and paleontological records of climate changes in the Earth's past, and we know the disasters they can cause, such as mass extinctions. Whether it be by volcanic eruption, or by human emissions, too much new material into the atmosphere is disruptive to the climate, sometimes catastrophically so.
Rainwater evaporation DOES have a significant impact on climate change. Greater concentrations of other greenhouse gasses lead to higher temperatures, which causesm water vapor to cycle through the atmosphere more rapidly. That means more evaporation, means more water vapor, means higher temperatures. Positive feedback loop.
yesterday! and in 1979, Also the was a tropical event.When was the last time any town in Texas got 42 inches of rain in a 24 hour period of time and not during a hurricane?
Impressive, intelligent teen or indoctrinated activism? You decide.Excerpt from Lifegate Article said:The COP24 in Katowice has ended leaving many doubts among environmental associations. However, there’s who doesn’t give in – like Swedish activist Greta Thunberg, who decided to go to Poland to give a speech at the UN climate conference.
Thunberg is a 15-year-old climate activist with the Asperger’s syndrome who is continuing her school strike each and every Friday to ask Sweden’s government and other countries to act against climate change. In her speech at the COP24 plenary she has pointed out how no solutions adequate to the gravity of the situation have been taken. Greta Thunberg has also called on students to join an international school strike on 14 December.
The assumption is that we know how the climate will respond to the forcing warming from added CO2, yet we do not have any
evidence of how it will respond, only modeled outputs based on assumptions of how the climate will respond.
