I fear this marketing campaign may do more to hurt the cause than help it...

Demonstrators in New York City on Friday, one of hundreds of climate protests worldwide.
Ignoring for a moment the absolutely ludicrous notion that a kid 
should be leading the charge, this is not in her mental or emotional 
well-being's best interest.
I absolutely admire the work she has done, but adults need to handle this, 
and we need to be proactive.
It's one thing to not make her a mascot.This seems like child exploitation.
I'd never seen any video of this girl until this evening. I was disturbed. 
It's child abuse. The woke middle classes of the world however are blind 
to how sick this set-up is. Who's paying for her? Who's writing her scripts?
The urgence of her message doesn't excuse the abuse of this girl's 
vulnerability. She is scarred for life for lack of treatment. Qui bono?
At 16,if Greta Thunberg is old enough to testify before the world’s 
Parliaments on a (albeit unfairly) contested issue, then she is old enough 
to be challenged with civility (even if I’m on her side). 
One can’t insist “she’s only a child”, while propping her up to do adults’ work...
While everything she says is absolutely right, my cynical side sees a 
rehearsed performance.
I fear this marketing campaign may do more to hurt the 
cause than help it.
She seems to really think the world is split among adults that are hapless 
and are just waiting for the children to tell them what to do and evil people cackling away wilfully burning the Earth up. Watching this delusion in 
real time without intervention is show-business
I also don't think she's resonating very well, one reason being that she 
looks incredibly uncomfortable and the other that adults (the people who 
can change things now) aren't likely to listen to a child (whether she's right 
or wrong).

Greta Thunberg speaks at the UN climate summit:
"You all come to us young people for hope? How dare you!"
