‘Eco-child abuse’: Climate activists benefit from ‘scaring children’ – Greenpeace research finds ‘three quarters of children under the age of 12 suffer from eco-anxiety’

It appears that Greenpeace has done some research and discovered that three quarters of children under the age of 12 suffer from eco-anxiety. High-fives all round then in an office that is probably empty due to them working from home in bed to ‘save’ the planet. You can imagine the delight as employees celebrate, breathing as calmly as possible to reduce their CO₂ emissions, that they have mobilised children in their charade to destroy our standard of living at greater speed than global warming might.

Terrified children can drive global policy with an effectiveness politicians lie awake at night dreaming about. How proud the globalists must be to find their propaganda disseminated so effectively. However, the greatest failure of adulthood is failing to protect childhood. Projecting your hysterical reaction into children after watching the BBC report that global boiling will make kettles redundant by 2050 is not something to be celebrating. As we saw with Covid, that evidently posed children no risk, the failure of adults to cushion children from things they have no need to fear is a seemingly modern phenomenon; negligence in protecting kids now something to celebrate.

…

The research from Greenpeace also suggests that 82% of teachers would find lesson plans and reserves to support children with their worries useful. The idea of Greenpeace being responsible for alleviating the anxiety they have caused makes as much sense as putting the Prodigy in charge of fire safety. As with Covid, what teachers might find useful is an actual backbone, with which to counter the ‘settled science’ with the fact that most predictions are based on modelling which is the least reliable scientific methodology, and might actually be complete bollocks. In the meantime please just enjoy your childhood. Teachers frothing at the mouth in anger at manmade CO₂ causing sea levels raising faster than you can climb trees might make them feel important, but it’s rather damaging to impressionable minds. One presumes that the Greenpeace-approved propaganda, sorry, I mean lesson plans, will fail to inform classes that global CO₂ parts in the atmosphere are at a historical low, and that without it all plants, and hence life, on planet earth would die out. Human beings are a temperate species; they thrive in warmth rather than cold.

Lesson plans would greatly benefit from sharing the Royal Society finding that CO₂ rising ahead of planetary temperature cannot be scientifically supported. Instead, it’s the same relentless and unchallenged propaganda that leads to miserable looking pensioners campaigning against the Rosebank and Jackdaw North Sea oil fields. These are people who really should know better, having spent a lifetime witnessing inept politicians screwing up everything they touch, sometimes even their own bacon sandwich. They are currently cheering the dissolution of the UK as a fully functioning country in the name of removing 1% of global emissions of CO₂ that account for 0.04% of the earth’s atmosphere also contributed to by natural sources of atmospheric carbon dioxide, such as ocean outgassing, decomposing vegetation and other biomass, venting volcanoes and natural wildfires
