Were any of he protestors NOT rich whites?
Yeah, this Greta Thunberg girl is effing crazy
-
she will go to harvard.
she does not care about global warming.
she want attention and some essay story.I hope admissions standards haven't dropped so much that they'd admit someone with such severe mental impairments that they can't even tie their own shoes much less get a real job.
Did you ever wonder if the reason Greta isn't in school is because she's too much of a genetic defective to function properly around her peers? And this whole "climate change" s**tshow is just an excuse for her failure?

The paper demonstrates that without nuclear power, it will be even harder to mitigate human-caused climate change and air pollution. This is fundamentally because historical energy production data reveal that if nuclear power never existed, the energy it supplied almost certainly would have been supplied by fossil fuels instead (overwhelmingly coal), which cause much higher air pollution-related mortality and GHG emissions per unit energy produced (ref. 2).

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) 2018 Greenhouse Gas Inventory (GHGI) was released on April 11. It revealed total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the United States decreased by 35.6 million metric tons of CO2 equivalent, or 0.5 percent from 2016 to 2017. Indeed, U.S. GHG emissions are now at their lowest levels since 1992 and only 1.3 percent higher than their 1990 levels.
Since 2005, GHG emissions are down 12 percent. Over this same period, oil production in the United States has increased by 80 percent and natural gas production has increased by 51 percent, according to the Energy Information Administration (EIA).
This is primarily due to the hydraulic fracturing (or “fracking”) revolution of the past decade.

why is the left against nuclear power? sometimes I feel like they're not interested in technological solutions and want political ones instead. They're simply bad actors.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released its latest Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program (GHGRP) data this week, demonstrating that reported U.S. greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions declined 2.6 percent in 2017 and by 12 percent since 2011. The new EPA data also shows that methane emissions from reporting oil and natural gas facilities continued to trend downward last year even as production soared to near record levels.
As E&E News reported, the overall GHG emission declines are “largely due to the rise of natural gas and renewable energy.”

Fracking releases methane, which is not accounted for in such studies.

I just want an end to fossil fuel subsidies (including externalities). Renewables will crush you in a fair fight, and you know it.

Renewables have a bunch of other issues. They need storage after a certain point because they do not produce at the right time
