1/ From @GretaThunberg "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. You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words. #ClimateWeek2019
2/ And yet I'm one of the lucky ones. People are suffering. People are dying. Entire 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. How dare you! @SpreadEagleBear
3/ For more than 30 years the science has been crystal clear. How dare you continue to look away and come here and say you're doing enough when the politics and solutions needed are still nowhere in sight. You say you hear us and understand the urgency. @SeattleOnside
4/ But no matter how sad and angry I am, I do not want to believe that. Because if you really understood the situation and still kept on failing to act, then you would be evil. And that I refuse to believe."
