Thankfully, we have intellectual heavyweights like Niall Ferguson, who are pointing out the absurdity of this cult: https://summit.news/2020/01/22/historian-slams-gre...

60% of CO2 emissions since Greta Thunberg was born is attributable to China… but nobody talks about that. They talk as if its somehow Europeans and Americans who are going to fix this problem… which is frustrating because it doesn’t get to the heart of the matter...
Britain’s CO2 emissions peaked in 1973 and are now at their lowest level since Victorian times,” reports the Spectator. “Air pollution has plummeted since then, with sulphur dioxide levels down 95 per cent. Britain’s population is rising but our energy consumption peaked in 2001 and has since fallen by 19 per cent.

They’re still as diverse as ever I see. They’ll get a good kicking one day.

Yes, they are now picking their venues a bit more carefully now, lest their pencil-like necks get snapped by ordinary working commuters.

Hilariously hypocritical. The cover shows a couple looking like modern-day eco-puritans, yet it also advertises a holiday completion, a family holiday guide, an article about swapping a normal life for living in a trailer in California (presumably you travel by pedalo), and a guide to the 8 best cosy baby carriers to buy - all contained in a magazine which will have been printed and transported using fossil fuels.The website is even better, with someone asking for advice on eco Astro Turf (I have that - it's called a lawn).
Odd title for a mag - a green 'parent' should be childless these green days.
