Vince Green Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 To me she has every appearance of being an out and out self publicist. Its more about promoting her and her personal profile than it is about the cause she claims to espouse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpringDon Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 I looked at her biography and now have the view that she is a victim of exploitation. An acceptable freak show for illiberal liberal types. Quite sad really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rewulf Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 A lot of the rhetoric Greta uses is based on climate messiah Al Gore's fantasy fiction film of 2006, An inconvenient truth. https://wattsupwiththat.com/2019/08/15/gore-says-his-global-warming-predictions-have-come-true-can-he-prove-it/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not beautiful, but ruddy brilliant! It's just a pity they're dutch owned, so have to be painted bright orange now! The Blue Marlin is running in and out of Invergordon / Nigg currently. Last weekend she was lying at anchor in the Firth, but the previous time I saw her she was ballast down loading concrete structures on the approach to Nigg. I remember seeing a documentary on her and thinking "that must be an interesting experience", and then changing my mind on sailing past her and thinking "nope"...

I wonder if that was the same documentary @figgy saw? Can you remember what it was called or what channel it was on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinfireman Posted August 16, 2019 Report Share Posted August 16, 2019 As Greta Thunberg continues to poo in a bucket across the Atlantic, it has emerged her trip is not nearly as environmental as she first made out. Nobody could have seen this coming… The €4 million yacht she’s sailing on is made of carbon fibre – a material with a carbon footprint 14 times higher than that of steel, and that “spews out a significant amount of greenhouse gases” during its manufacturing. It’s always worth reminding Greta that flying only accounts for between 2 and 5% of the world’s carbon emissions… GQ’s ‘game changer of the year’ clearly putting carbon fibre over moral fibre… UPDATE: It transpires that the five people bringing the boat back from NYC will first fly over to the States, meaning in total Greta’s PR trip will end up creating six timesthe emissions it would have done if she’d just flown over to begin with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
