Instant media coverage perhaps? I've had long conversations with some of the people from this group in the past and my conclusion is they have no idea what they're doing. With enough arguments, their claims and worldviews ALWAYS fall apart at some point (it's actually surprisingly easy, which is sort of terrifying). I'm not at all against young people or activists per se. Anyway, do I need "fresh" sea food being shipped to the EU from central Asia every three days? Absolutely not. Good, so let's found a non-profit or a company and get to work. |

The perception among many political observers of a rejection of climate policies was a result of this campaign, rather than reflecting the reality of what people think, he added.
