  From the perspective of a business? Probably the age you start buying their products. Not to be too cynical, but I doubt many companies give a damn what peoples opinions are, if those people aren’t buying their products, or if there isn’t a creditable threat those people will start to influence the opinions of people who do buy their products.

  Old enough to vote, smoke, enlist in the military etc. That age where we consider people adults and capable of thinking and doing things for themselves such as dying for their country or having the opportunity to vote on the way they believe their country should be run.

  There is a decent reason we don't allow humans under a certain age to vote. Wisdom, some life experience, and maturity bolster one's credibility, all things being equal. It's also easier to dismiss with how silly and unimportant (and in my opinion, wrong) their position is - and how obnoxious their self-perceived moral authority is. Greta Thunberg was rather annoying from a "trotting out a teenager for political purposes" but at least in that case, the moral argument and the "generational" nature of climate change make more sense to see a minor push the issue.
