Greta at NYC climate crisis protest

Here's what Greta said at the student protest of 250,000. Our future is in good hands. Here's hoping we actually get to that future.

"Where I come from things are very different than here, but when it comes to the climate and ecological emergency, and the people in power, it is pretty much the same," she said. "In fact, everywhere I've been, the situation is more or less the same. The people in power, their beautiful words are the same, the empty promises are the same, the lies are the same, and the inaction is the same. Nowhere have I found anyone in power who dares to tell it like it is...that burden they leave to us, teenagers and children. We have not taken to the streets, sacrificing our education, for the adults and politicians to take selfies with us and tell us that they really, really admire what we do."
