I think he is spot on. Poorer nations should be allowed to develop to the west's standard of living and then work on cleaning up their emissions. The plan to ban 3rd world countries from industrialising while heaping taxes on us to pay them a pittance welfare is ridiculous.

Fascinating vid. Is it recruiting for Hitler Youth?

What he says about poor countries not giving a **** about climate change is spot on, if you have no money, no job and everything is increasing in price weekly how high on your list of worries would climate change be.
As a parent I would push that button until the day I died as well. What parent wouldn't?
Well not really. UK emissions are down to 1900 levels (I get that a lot of that has moved overseas) and bringing new technologies online will reduce that further.
I've seen with my own eyes the pollution in asian countries and people living in galvanised huts don't care in the slightest what Greta has to say. They're too busy trying to survive.

He's telling young people in the UK that their contribution is irrelevant, and to simply sit back and wait for the clever people to solve it. I have no idea what his agenda is, but he's not playing with a straight bat.
It is irrelevant to be fair. Any further reductions in emissions we make will be completely nullified (and even added to) by the explosion of population in these poorer nations.

Bottom line is there are too many of us.
The line under that is the myth that economies ought to be in permanent expansion.
The one feeds the other and it's a vicious cycle.
We need to decrease, even decimate the population and we need to contract our economies radically.
By natural wastage, its to be hoped.

The logical conclusion of permanent expansion is will use all our resources up. Instead of being in a state of equilibrium with our planet. This economic sleight of hand could well be the only way to avoid the collapse of the global economic ponzi scheme it appear to me to be.

Oh! I saw the thumbnail and read it as "destroys wok culture" because the play icon obscures the "e"

Yeah, so his point then seems to be, sit down, shut up, and get back in your box while your betters pollute for profit, because its pointless to try and fix it.

I noticed he wouldn’t take any questions. essentially he is saying let’s do **** all and hope technology will save us? Is that it? Hardly a powerful philosophy is it.
That's not what he said at all but take it how you please.

As an aside, I PAID to ask this guy to explain the conflict in Crimea some THREE years ago and he swept my question under the carpet and said " it's nothing to worry about". Ive always had doubts about the fella and anything he says
