Oh the irony of naming a scientific discovery over someone whose entire platform is anti-education in nature. I cant tell you how many environmentalist organizations I had to stop donating to or participate in because they adopted her image too. She makes me sad :(

@freemo Greta isn't particularly anti-scientific. She does quote IPCC and didn't follow the popular antinuclear sentiment.

As for skipping school... Well, if I counted all the times *we* skipped school to go climbing or just have a drink, she's not making a very bad use of her time off the school.

@kravietz The issue isnt tht **she** skips school, thats not at all part of the issue. The fact that she has a voice that people listen to and is telling millions of other girls and boys to skip school though is a VERY different thing, and unexcusable.

There is also a huge difference between occasionally skipping school and doing so every single friday.
