Things like "why doesn't she plant trees" - except she's Swedish, and from what I looked up about how Sweden handles tree-planting, it comes across as very much a municipal affair, and like most Europeans, Greta would find a person individually fixing municipal affairs to be a strange thing (in fact, far as I can tell, as affluent countries go that idea is peculiar to Americans). And the other not-technically-insult is comparing her negatively to Boyan Slatt - which is also unfair because it takes all kinds - the geniuses AND the activists. And that one is one where the line between insult and not-insult is blurry at best.Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00422850352793457403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8243351006478134285.post-85718376927589048332021-10-04T09:31:48.343-05:002021-10-04T09:31:48.343-05:00A spectacular read.

She's walking the talk. Where I live in NM, there is a community who is really working for sustainability, and then there is the "traditional values" bunch whose 'values" seem to be dumping trash anywhere they want, putting impromptu shooting ranges in the national forests and not policing up their shells and targets and riding their ATVs through streambeds and breaking them down. And letting their goddam sacred cattle roam loose.SandyMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06423333485079088558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8243351006478134285.post-13777883702696792372021-09-30T17:22:43.395-05:002021-09-30T17:22:43.395-05:00This is one of my favorites.
