Remember when every leader wanted their picture taken with Greta? She is still that truth teller, they just can't face the truth of their crimes.
Greta Thunberg arrested for holding a sign opposing genocide.
When peaceful protest is a crime, democracy is in deep trouble.

“He raped me.”
“Donald J Trump had raped her along with Jeffrey Epstein.”
“She was found with her head ‘blown off’… there was no way it was a suicide.”
Now we’re starting to see why Trump was hiding the Epstein files, and it probably gets much worse.

Using the same tactic that gained her notoriety in the first place, Greta Thunberg has been arrested in the UK. The notion that such a peaceful tactic has become an arrestable offense in a democracy like the Uk is really concerning.

Power goes out in San Francisco and the robot cars, needing the lights to "self" drive, all stop at once, blocking streets and emergency vehicles - which are needed more than ever in a black out!
We knew AI causes power outages. Turns out it also makes them worse by being stupid.

Furthermore, even if the world were bending the curve of emissions down, the range of warming for our “current trajectory” actually includes 4C by 2100 — and it’s not like heating has been *slowing down* recently.

The projections of warming by 2100 that encourage people to say reassuring shit like this are *estimates of emissions* that take current pledges and policies into account. They ALL posit that emissions will bed sharply down, and soon.
