It feels fitting to me to see a young person who'll still be around in the year 2100 (along with their children) berating politicians who are making all the decisions yet won't be around to live in the consequences of their choices if the world heats up 5C or more.
I don't understand the mindset of older people who either deny climate change or do nothing about it - do they not care about the world their children are going to live in?
I get that rich people will be shielded from the worst of climate change but at some point don't you get rich enough that other things become more important? Or at that stage does it become all about competing with peers to accumulate power?
