Greta Thunberg is Time's 2019 Person of the Year

Time magazine on Wednesday announced teen climate activist Greta Thunberg is its 2019 Person of the Year. The 16-year-old Thunberg first made headlines last year with her solitary strike against climate change outside Sweden's parliament.

Since then, she's inspired millions of supporters to rally in more than 150 countries. In September, she scolded world leaders at the United Nations for failing to address climate change.

"People are suffering. People are dying and dying ecosystems are collapsing. We are in the beginning of a mass extinction, and all you can talk about is the money and fairy tales of eternal economic growth," she said Monday, as she fought back tears. "How dare you! For more than 30 years the science has been crystal clear. How dare you continue to look away and come here saying that you're doing enough when the politics and solutions needed are still nowhere in sight."

“This is all wrong. I shouldn't be up here. I should be back in school on the other side of the ocean. Yet you all come to us young people for hope. How dare you.”

Got that one right, Greta. Now get your ass back to school.

Time magazine was always a rag publication, so it is not surprising that they would select this person for its cover. I really don't care because I haven't bought this rag sheet for many years!

People are dying because of elitist policies and corruption not climate change.Billions given to third world countries just to be used to enrich the few elites.

Do global warming believers take cold showers, or heat their homes with something other than solar?

Machines, electric and petrol powered, lifted us worldwide out of poverty and misery.

The brainwashed pig-tailed girl will be nearly 30 when she realizes she isn't dead yet from global catastrophes caused by man.

She'll never suffer another day in her life.

Unfortunatly, Gretta is just a naive useful dupe being aboused by her activist parents in this neo communist attempt at global control over free people.
Gretta has probably been brainwashed and conditioned since a very young age into her current useful position. Once her usefulness has run out, she will be cast aside like last weeks NY times.

Hmmm. Let’s see. Time’s person of the year in 1938 was Hitler; 1939 Stalin (actually two years for Stalin). Would say she’s in excellent company.

Greta is the crybaby of the world. She cried about taking a crowded train home (let’s not forget trains make lots of pollution), posting pictures of herself sitting on the floor; but when the rail service she used replied to complaining, we learned she was actually sitting in First Class. Oh the irony.

Wondering how much that set back Soros to make her person of the year. Time probably didn’t do it for cheap. Pushing agendas is high dollar industry. People need to wake up to the world being pulled over their eyes because it’s not based on fact. It’s based on green screens and fakery.
