Great way to phrase it! Thanks, Sphumelele Sibuta. Thomas von Bueren

Yes! finally someone else sees it through my perspective!

Sphumelele Sibuta : but she pretty much said that climate change is bad and we need to stop it. Nothing really impressive about that. I thought she had a new plan to stop climate change. But she just said let the people in power handle it. ( the grown ups)

You (and Vlad) miss the point. You are implying that environmentalists are asking people in poverty to stay in poverty in order to protect the environment. This is simply not true. Yes, the highly industrialized nations are far more responsible for climate change, and having more industrialized nations accelerates the process, *if proper measures aren't taken*. There are measures that can be taken. People are so stubborn and selfish you make a statement like that as an excuse to live your life "normally" and not make any changes. So you can feel guilt free... like somehow YOUR the hero for not asking Africans to stay poor, when that has nothing to do with it. I hope you see the light some day and help in the fight to save the world. Or at least help some Africans, if reducing your meat consumption or other small "sacrifices" are so unbearable.

New Yorkers have a dark sense of humor. They don't think that pollution is non-serious, they just laugh kind of darkly when people call them out on their pollution problem, as if to say "Yeah, we know, you caught us... it's embarrassing." They're laughing that she's being very frank and doesn't mind pointing out something in an "undiplomatic" way, which generally New Yorkers enjoy, even at their own expense. Most of this audience is very much in favor of seeing climate change as a fact and doing better for the environment. But the very corrupt power structure that keeps things the way things are has left many New Yorkers disenchanted, and so we/they (and Americans in general), tend to laugh at our problems. There's that saying-- you can cry or you can laugh, either way it sucks.

I'm sure she was doing both. What's true is often funny. I think she has a pretty good grasp of that.

I think she was trying to downplay it after all that laughter. New York doesn't quite smell like pollution, instead, it would be more accurately described as PEE, EVERYTHING SMELLS LIKE SUN-BAKED PEE, I COME FROM A TROPICAL THIRD WORLD COUNTRY'S MOST POPULATED CITY AND EVEN HERE IT DOESN'T SMELL LIKE PEE, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU NYC PEOPLE?!

When I went to India, first I went to Goa very close to the beach and the jungle. Next stop was Delhi...let me tell you, you could really smell the difference/pollution and while Delhi surely is more polluted than NY, I get what she says and I don’t doubt her words.

He’s being shown up by a 16 year old. I hope she hasn’t seen that bit, I wonder what she’d think of it.

this time he decided to be really serious, his personal history makes him understand that. and it wasn't so easy, but he did. knowing when to show respect, is one of the most noble traits of a good comedian.

*She hasn't 'shown-up' anyone as yet...merely making cogent statements others have made long before she was born and likely herparents as well...such as Rachel Carson*( *The idea of 'no more airplane flights' is simply bizarre and unworkable* )

If older generations don't work hard and industrialize the society you will be crumbling in your shattered house and worrying about your next meal, not sitting on your sofa using your smartphone to post your childish thoughts.

The older generation was doing shopping with reusable shopping bags, instead of plastic bottles you just throw away these days they used glass bottles which they used to bring back to shops so they can be used again, they did not have 3000 electronic appliances at homes which is pretty norm these days(I don't believe you have at home 1 radio and that's it), the energy consumption was not as high, and many of them did not even own a car, aviation was not so widely available to many either. Sooooo my question is what old generation are we talking about? I guess if you ask your parents or grandparents they will tell you they had nothing what we have now. Yes I am not saying they did not have any impact, many factories worked on coal, but every generation has impact on the planet, and on our lives we live now. But they also had to fight for my things you can profit from now, so I believe it is very ignorant to blame situation on older generation when we are added a big part to the problem as well. I love to travel but think only about what impact has tourism on planet.

@Phil 502 You mean like how people spreading climate change denial propaganda are almost always linked to the oil and gas industry? How you trust an industry who's sole purpose is to make a profit more than the consensus of independent scientists all over the world is baffling to me.

The Conservative party of America are funded by big oil. Because of that they make it a political issue since they deny the existence of climate change.

@Phil 502 They are scientists, they have degrees and years of experience - fuck off with your quote marks around the term. The dangers of climate change have been known since the 70s, and over 98% of all peer-reviewed scientific studies and articles back the fact that it is real and it is man-made. Nothing more stupid than to view science with the same sceptical eye as business: one is based on the idea of the need for infinite growth and infinite financial gains, the other is based on observing and understand this planet in order to protect it.

@@ninninin656 Stupid argument krautkiwi . You are right about the bullshit known as climate change being around since the 70's .Only back then we were heading towards a new ice age . One that would be here by the year 2000 . I was around in the 70's . I was around in 2000 . Never did see that sheet of ice .

Imo climate change can be observed with the naked eye. At least where I live. If it where based solely on the opinions of others i wouldnt believe it either. You can see for yourself something is off. It is affecting the psyche of people. And its not because of media ”propaganda”. Because we had that before and people didnt care about it then either.

Of course, nice try! Humanity is that everyone in the world or just 30% of everyone? The rest are to greedy, lazy and stupid. Them using your words "let it run."

Daniela, it's propaganda, it's simply not true. They Climate Doom crowd has been at this since 1970. They said the world would end 20 years ago. When that failed to pass, they said it would end 10 years ago. Now they are saying it will end 10 years from now or 20. And when those years come they will predict 10 or 20 more. And you will feel like a fool. Because you are one.

@@fenrisulven5324 Ah, here we go again. That's what Greta meant when she said some people in the US (also in other places, but much less so) mistake the climate change for something you can decide to believe in or not. It's not a religion, bro. It's predictions based on observations and measurements of the real world in the past and current, extrapolated with proven climatic models into the future. All those tell us, within a high degree of certainty, how the climate is going to evolve and what influence that will have on our life, if we keep on doing as we are. That's called "science" and there is consensus about this topic among climate scientists. And no - climate scientists, communicators or even activists (who generally tend to overdramatise to get their points heard) are not saying that the world is goind to end in 10 or 20 years. Everyone knows and says that things will progressively get worse and it's already started. The problem is, that climate as well as large changes in society and industry are very long winded processes, which means we have to act as early as possible - ideally decades ago. Also there are certain points in warming the earth, where a snowball-effect can be triggered, like thawing permafrost-soil which releases large amounts of methane, speeding up warming and triggering more such effects and so on. Imagine it as a steadily growing heap of lightly toxic trash and you are the only one who is there to remove it. In the beginning, it's just a little and not very dangerous, but if you don't start removing it early and let it accumulate over the decades, you will have a toxic mountain before you, that you can't remove without being killed by it's toxic gasses anymore. I don't like to be the bearer of bad news, but sadly you are the one that has been fooled. I don't know you and your life circumstances and therefore don't know how that attitude developed and will certainly not be able to convince you otherwise, so I won't argue with you. I just didn't want to let your misleading statements unanswered, though you might yourself not know that you are uttering bullcrap. On the other hand, if you are really just a troll, shame on you!

First one to let her finish a statement. And we were all so glad he did--especially if you've seen other interviews

Agree, why can’t they focus more about what she want to and is doing for our climate change, and not about her personality. Like why does that even have to matter??!!

@@elisabethv9677 it's still just main stream media, even though you and I aren't watching it on TV. MSM = corporate media

Elisabeth V because they can not attack her message, as she is right. When you lose the argument you attack the opponent personally.

@Elisabeth V Most interviewers are diminishing her and the knowledge she has, by not asking about the science. They’re treating her like a little, frail girl that can’t possibly answer ”difficult science questions.” Studies show that women in general get that kind of treatment in media more often than men. Men get to talk about actual issues, and therefore appears to be smarter. Women get asked more about emotions, family, or other ”softer issues”. This affects both womens’ and mens’ views of womens’ capacity in general. One of many, many phenomenon that adds to the gender inequality we still have. Greta has been studying the climate issue for 7-8 years now, with an intensity of an Asperger’s... She’s as close to an expert as anyone can come, without being a scientist! She SHOULD be asked about the climate, every single interview!

This seems to be a continual problem in the US. They are so hung up on their idea of freedom, they think that also applies to opinion on EVERYTHING. 'It's my right to think the sky is blue and you have to accept it, otherwise you are trampling all over my freedom'. Well, yes, opinions can vary and should not be shut down but, facts are facts.

Its not just US, Asia is also a big cause of climate change. Its not just you guys. Hell, you are talking about it, some countries absolutely dont care

Yes! We need to ask people, do you understand the scientific knowledge about human-caused climate change or are you ignorant about it! Also, we need to talk about solutions. Here's one to consider: citizensclimatelobby.org/why-carbon-fee-and-dividend

@Pickel yes, other nations are also not addressing climate change/ global warming. But other than China’s impact, we Americans use and waste energy (including food of course, we waste sooo much food it’s insane) at a per capita rate that doesn’t compare to almost any other nation. America might have the ability to change the tide if we weren’t largely under educated.

Nah dude in germany we got a populist party called the AfD and their climate expert (Beatrix von Storch) said that there is no man made climate change and if we want to prevent the climate warming up that we should tell the sun to shine less bright.

What about conan? He knows when to be quiet and listen, but also knows how to crack jokes at the right time. He plays off his guest much like trevor does. Or I should say trevor plays off his guest much like conan, as conan was first.

I agree, Trever is a great host. I watched a CBS morning interview where one of the know-nothing hosts asked about the "hunger strike" (wrong, it's a school strike for climate), then after a few fluff questions the last one was about what people could do, but rather than listen they cut her off in the second sentence and went to a commercial break, not providing the Friday for Future info. Ugh! BTW, here is another important first step everyone can take - learn about solutions like Carbon Fee and Dividend: citizensclimatelobby.org/why-carbon-fee-and-dividend

Only a fool listens to a child about serious issues, she has no real understanding of how the world works yet and she's annoying

This is what i thought

If it's not entertainment, it doesn't exist! We're watching our own extinction happening, and when we get bored we change channel.

I think it's mostly because she's so blunt and innocent yet has her shit together better than most of the audience. I think it was a nervous laugh for some, and also a way to make her more comfortable to talk in front of an audience, even though she clearly doesn't need help

it's all about Entertainment in the US, just look how Debates for Presedency are run in the US, all about drama, emotions and entertainment, being factual and reasonable is boring to many americans.

How long have we got?

@NorthernLights ofDemons FALSE lol

@@novaquinn5323 Well, you're ignorant, aren't you? NorthernLights is absolutely correct.

Meanwhile, Trump struggles with pronouncing basic words

@@novaquinn5323 dude I speak German, English, a bit of French and a bit of Spanish. So does everyone else in my "state" because we're obligated to.. what are you on about

For those of us here in Europe whose parents aren’t of mixed heritage English is our second language. We learn it in grade school, right after we’ve learned how to read and write

my pet rat is more intelligent than your president :(

She's smarter than my country's previous president

She looks a lot younger than that

To be more intelligent I get. Children are very intelligent these days. However what's mind boggling is she have more wisdom as well! She gathered more wisdom in 16 years than Trump did in 73.

My cats are brighter than Trump, as they leave their piss in their litter box...

@House Stark She is great, but have you thought about how she gets back home to Sweden?! She never talked about that!

@@1famekouby Sorry, but you're projecting an image of wealth here that isn't actually warranted. By american standards her family would be considered lower upper class, at most. Like state-wide radio hosts or the like. They're local actors and singers in a small country that actually taxes the wealthy, not some sort of cabal of backroom multinational CEOs. And it's a false dichotomy to say individual action and holding the wealthy and the rest of us responsible are somehow mutually exclusive, or that one is important but the other one isn't (even though she absolutely has been calling out businesses and governments as well). Small decisions like an individual's carbon footprint does matter a lot when that behavior is repeated several hundred million times over a population. And ultimately corporations get away with most of their bullshit simply due to the apathy of the general population.

Snusar Greta

Double the population density of swedens largest city. She can't complain, this is the goal of mass immigration.

big cities smell yes that said you would maybe presume some of the big cities in the western world to smell a little less

Dude that's exactly what I was always thinking. Everytime when Trevor talks about some serious topics, his audience reacts with laughter like they are just there to hear some jokes. I've always thought that his live audience is dumb as hell or they're really dont care

It is all scripted

American audiences laugh and "whoop" at everything. It's really annoying. One of the most annoying things is when there's a slow, sincere passage in a song during a music performance - during those quieter parts, US audiences start whooping. Really annoying.

The audience wasn't laughing at her, they were laughing at her bluntness but cheering her on at the same time for how accurate her points were.

Im here I would be angry at the audience IF they were laughing at her. But I don't hear that at all. I hear the audience taking her very seriously.

That's the entire world today

Then its not comedy

Isn't that sad. It wasn't always that way.

@@Einsatzkommando Actually it depends on the artist. Some present it as Philosophy masquerading as Comedy. No different than movies or songs trying to push an idea. They all take you to the same final destination. Just different vehicles to get you there is all.

Thats just because you agree with the statements. Everybody likes ‘good unbiased journalism’ until they hear something they dont agree with..

She doesn't care about humor. She is there for a cause. Hats off to her.

@@ronyboylive6934 yeah, that what she is there for.........smmfh.

not everything in life is about humour! there is nothing wrong with being serious!.

Yeah give her enough space to make money hmmmn

stupid people letting her make money

Zoe Christopher THANK YOU ZOE CHRISTOPHER FOR YOUR COMMENT💖🌎💖

NO she isn't amazing - she is being used - do your research on her and the topic - just don't drink the cool-aid

Zoe Christopher Yes, and that’s because he’s not an American. We talk to our children and young people as if they are idiots.

D Lehmann I have done my research, there’s a lot in fact, that proves in what she is saying. That we are killing the life that supports us and our ecosystems. There is no Kool-aid to be drank here sir, for what is wrong with wanting the world to not polluted, the waters to be safe and to actually be able for humanity to survive past your generation, mine, and hopefully my children’s? Is there something so wrong with wanting to protect our planet? Is it horrible that people wish to protect the trees in which gives us oxygen to breath and to protect the ozone in which gives us protection from the suns rays? I have not taken a sip of Kool-aid for it isn’t of my taste, but you might need to take a look in what’s in your cup, and not fret about about what’s in mine.

Mario Giresi Yes, I know this quite well. I remember being in high school a few years back and told I was “too young” to worry about politics as it would not effect me yet. I feel like it’s time to hear ALL people out on this topic for this is real, and we need as many people on board as possible to help protect/save our planet.

zekol 123 Yes, they’re laughing because they agree.

Sometimes laughter covers pain :O

Some people are like “If u dont like it here, go back to ur own country” ol

What really had me going is when many celebs took flights to the climate change summit (or whatever they called it).......hello.....airplanes flights add to the atmospheric (smell) uh... change!

It smells like liberals

Akshay Kant you are ignorant this wonderful young woman is no puppet.

@@akshaykant1624 Are you talking about yourself?

She’s not struggling. ASD is not a horrible disease. It’s not hard

M Boaz she did, but having something like neurosis and ability to speak English doesn’t make you special.

Hermann Steiner it doesnt make you special but it does make it harde for her which is even more amazing that she just did especially on a young age stop being jealouse she acomplished more then you ever could

That's because they were all softball questions. Trevor didn't ask about the plane flights her boat's crew will take for the return trip. He also didn't touch on the fact that her boat is made of plastic and carbon fiber, and therefore actually has a huge carbon footprint. He also didn't wonder aloud why she couldn't just use the internet and video-conference to address a summit on another continent, the way tons of people do every day. That boat trip was a publicity stunt for fact-free people to tweet about. Have you seen her boat ? Where do you think they shat ? That thing doesn't have a toilet. Ask anyone who's sailed that kind of boat where your piss and shit go. And this was a 15-day trip. Compare that to an 8-hour flight where your waste gets disposed of and recycled when you land, not in the middle of the ocean. Damn, *use your brains* people.

@@TheNefastor she's still doing more than anybody right now. if we didn't do anything because what we do isn't good enough for you then we're doomed already. get off your high horse.

@@harlequin5664 are you for real ? Her horse is far higher than mine, if that's all you're interested in. And have you actually read my comment and asked yourself the tough questions Trevor didn't ? Seems you're more concerned about propping up an idol than about being rational. Seriously, ask yourself what the world would look like if we suddenly went from air travel to sailing boats for everyone. No really, think about it before you type another half-assed put-down.

@@TheNefastor of course is a marketing strategy and she knows that too. It's the damn point of all of it, send a message so people will inform about the issue. It's only to send a message and she knows too if you listen carefully at her interview.

@@giacomodibisceglia5023 yeah but my point is that if you lie to people so they'll make a good choice, when they realize you've lied to them they might also undo those choices.

I don't think she was nervous. I think she was annoyed by people laughing at her and was trying to convey her message in a foreign to her language without making a mistake, thus the slower speed of her speech.

@@annagallus8544 You hit the nail on the head. She's not speaking her native tongue, so it's a little tougher to convey your thoughts and feelings when the question has to be translated to your language, and a repose had to be instantly created in a different language on the spot.

Trevor isn't making a lot of eye contact in general. That's not necessarily a thing outside of America. In fact it's often considered rude to make direct eye contact.

Lyra Serpentine in all honesty, Trevor often does not make direct eye contact with many guests. It always throws me off a bit. It works here, but he often does it w/ people not in her position.
