//a transition to green energy should not come at the expense of indigenous rights // I would think that everywhere the damned windmills are dumped has someone who is indigenous to the area. Or are we to give some "indigenous" types more rights to say no than others? Is the Swedish doom goblin the appointed arbiter of such a selection? Perhaps we can just put...

You're arguing against her yet you don't know why she is protesting?

Might it not be an idea to spend a few minutes reading why she is protesting or are you not bothered about her reasons?

I think 'doom goblin' is top work. :-)

THECORBYLOON

Under Article 110a of the Norwegian Constitution,

"It is the responsibility of the authorities of the State to create conditions enabling the Sami people to preserve and develop its language, culture and way of life."

Is allowing those wind farms to be erected on land traditionally used by Indigenous Sami reindeer herders preserving their way of life?

Eh,TCL?Thunberg is probably the best known proponent of wind- power in the world,but here she is protesting against wind-power.As i said previously she doesnt know her *rse from her elbow.

THECORBYLOON

How would you feel if she argued in favour of the wind farms, sticking to her campaign for the use of wind turbines, at the expense of the negative impact upon the Sami way of life?

Might be a good idea if she made her mind up?Is she for wind farms or is she against wind farms.There is no grey area,TCL.Either for or against.Her parents must be loving this.Counting the dollars.

Atheist - // Andy; Well, you wouldn't. You're a lecturer. //

In order to avoid the sort of misunderstanding that occurs when we communicate in print, I'll take your post both ways -

If you are being humourous - yes, very witty.

If you are being serious - I don't understand why you think me being a lecturer would prevent me appreciating someone else in the same role - ?

But without wishing to be pedantic, I am not a 'lecturer', I am a Guest Speaker, very different set-up.

Lecturers offer education, as a Guest Speaker, I offer first and foremost, entertainment, with some small nuggets of information included, but my first role is to entertain a cruise ship's guests for a short time, nothing as heavy as the sort of tedious doom-laden nonsense that Ms Thunberg and others offer.

Either way,andy.However Ms Thunberg has to make her mind up.Is she in favour of Green energy or is she against Green energy.There are no grey areas in between.

To me it looks staged...just like her German coal protest.

Yes,roy,her parents really ripping the *** out of their daughter and the rest of us to,by the looks of things.

THECORBYLOON

You want her to stick to her principles and fight for wind farms, regardless of their impact?

Somebody from Aberdeen saying there are 'no grey areas'.

Amusing.

Lets hope she doesnt have any offspring as that would use up extra resources.

// Errr,aye.....there are no grey areas,TCL. //

Of course, you're right.

Greta should be praised for preaching the message and lampooned for her selectiveness.
