holy crap a voice of reason, hopefully they listen. And hopefully she's free to come scream at the climate activists here in the US too.

Hopefully this young activist listen to what older activists with decades of experience have to say

'Listen to your elders' is how we got here in the first place. Maybe we try something different.

I don't recall any elders telling me to consume more oil or pollute, if anything they warned me against technology plenty of time

The older ones are stupid and afraid of nuclear. No one should listen to them.

Usually people with more experience are wiser, why do you think nobody should listen to them?

Give me a 80 year old cabinet maker to teach me how to build cabinets, but the people who think nuclear energy is unsafe also believe hiding under their desk at school would protect them from nuclear war. Older doesn't mean wiser on everything.

The older activists with decades of literal Rockefeller money in their pockets, you mean?

Climate activists don't advocate for oil or coal

They shouldn't, but many do and have done for many years out of ignorance.
