Im tired of talking about Greta Thunberg.
Actually, no, Im not tired, Im just very, very disappointed. How is this a controversial topic? A teenage girl who is mobilizing MILLIONS to care about the environment? How can the global society be divided about this? Where do all the haters come from? And Im not talking about the millionaires who live off destroying the planet, Im not talking about Trump and petrol-owning assholes.. Im talking about idiot Cypriots on facebook and even worse, idiot teacher at the school where I teach.
I simply cant believe it.
Its her syndrome, they say. I dont have a syndrome and Im panicking every day. Lots of us are worried sick about our future and the future of our children in a planet that is dying.. correction: in the planet that we are KILLING. Personally, before Greta I was paralysed. I agonized in silence, trying to reduce my carbon footprint while watching others carelessly increasing theirs. Then she came and showed me how one person can singlehandedly change the world, by helping others come forward.
"Its her syndrome", "its child abuse", "shes showing off", "its her parents wanting to be famous", "theres a millionaire behind this". Just shut up, all of you little insignificant idiotic people who live your comfortable consuming lives. Is she making you uncomfortable? Because you really dont want to reconsider your environment-destroying lifestyle?
Greta is taking up the burden for all our silence.She's taking the leadership in a fight we should all be fighting. She's our voice, she's our hope. She's a hero of peace.
I wish there were more people like her. I wish we were all a little bit like her. Then it wouldnt be so difficult to change the world. And we really do need the change. Before its too late.
