“Silence is complicity,” Thunberg added. “You cannot be neutral in a genocide.” She is right.

When the state media of one of the biggest fossil fuel exporter in the world is cheering for you, you might want to reconsider what you are doing as a climate activist.

They can cheer for whomever they wish. What you do mean much more than what people think of you.

This article is mostly ‘cheering’ for Greta’s stance on Palestine rather than climate. Besides, it’s written by a Canadian journalist.

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:
