Democratic politicians are encouraging thousands of children to skip school to demand politicians do something about global warming, including passing the Green New Deal.
“[S]tudents are fighting like their world depends on it,” former Vice President Al Gore said in a tweet extolling Haven Coleman, a 12-year-old listed as the U.S. climate strike’s co-founder and co-director.
“I stand with all students striking here in Atlanta and across world today,” Gore tweeted Friday as thousands of students skipped school to protest climate change.
Student strikes were inspired by 16-year-old Greta Thunberg, who began ditching school in August to sit in protest outside the Swedish parliament.
Thunberg told the United Nations in December that “civilization is being sacrificed” by adults who were “stealing” their children’s futures by not immediately shedding fossil fuels.
Tens of thousands of students have since skipped school to demand politicians immediately address global warming. U.S. strikers are demanding Congress pass the Green New Deal resolution introduced by New York Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
Backed by well-funded environmental groups, youth strikers are protesting “for the Green New Deal, for a fair and just transition to a 100% renewable economy, and for ending the creation of additional fossil fuel infrastructure,” according to the Youth Climate Strike website.
The kids say “inaction has left us with just 11 years to change the trajectory of the worst effects of climate change.” That deadline is based on the misleading media hype surrounding a U.N. report released in October.
Ocasio-Cortez, activists, and politicians have claimed humanity has less than 12 years to cut emissions and avert catastrophic global warming — a message they only amplified as students took to the streets Friday.
California Rep. Ro Khanna said lawmakers should listen to the teenagers and children striking. Khanna, a supporter of the Green New Deal resolution, called on Congress to immediately address global warming.
“I am so energized to see young people across this country taking action on climate change,” Khanna tweeted Thursday night. “Our job as lawmakers is to listen to them.”
“If we don’t act, they will have to deal with the fallout from climate disaster,” the Democrat tweeted.
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton also extolled Coleman and the other leaders of the “You Climate Strike” movement in the U.S., which includes Isra Hirsi, Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar’s 16-year-old daughter.
Omar, a Democrat, will march with climate strikers in Washington, D.C., Friday. Omar is also a Green New Deal supporter.
However, Democratic leadership and party moderates have tried to distance themselves from the Green New Deal, which calls for a massive expansion of government control over the economy.

It is obvious that the kids have been brain washed, but we need to remember that is also true of most adults who are activities supporting the climate change fraud. They are only fed one point of view and all other information is censored out. Even kids who may have been taught the proper scientific method don’t have a chance due to the brain washing and censorship. The big failure of climate change science is instead of altering the theory to fit the data as the scientific method dictates, they have altered the data to fit the politically motivated theory. You can bet due to censorship very few of the adults and kids who under stand the scientific method know that the real data doesn’t fit the IPCC models.
Why do so many liberals hate the USA ?
An attention seeking bar tender from NY claims there is only 11 years to save the planet and a former tobacco farmer claims the Arctic was to be ice free by now . Hmm, why is anyone wasting time on these clowns ?
Could it be the whole global warming fear industry is just a planned distraction . A very expensive distraction but an investment in attention diversion .
Ever notice how the massive problems in the USA are never addressed ?
Best to create a straw man , a fear industry to consolidate socialist power through blind obedience to a new religion .We all know how kind religious
fervor has been to humanity .
Could the entire global warming fear industry be the Trojan horse to
undermine the military complex who is sucking up $trillions the USA does not have ? Conspiracy theory for sure but how else can the scary global warming con game be explained ? The UN admitted it was all designed to provide a rally point for a global governance cause to diminish nation states .
using kids to protest against their own rights.
We many should know Socraties was found guilty of Sedition of corupting the minds of Greek Youths and was forced to drink Hemlock these Enviromentalists and their ilk are guilty of the same crime their corupting the minds of kids especialy the Democrats should,nt they be drinking Hemlock to?
It doesn’t matter why the smellocrats encourage kids to not attend
It’s BECAUSE they want them to not attend
Education, TRUE education is not important
Indoctrination is important to the smellocrats
And that’s all that matters
Demonicrats describes them better
It is easy to dismiss this as NONSENSE, because that’s exactly what all this is. But we cannot dismiss or even laugh at what the Green New Deal is about. If enough people are convinced that action needs to be taken to prevent what is really a phantom doomsday, they will be difficult to overpower and stop. These idiots stand to take over the world we know and convert into something none of us could ultimately tolerate: an environmental dictatorship.
Thunberg just another leftists extremists telling all those lies to the school kids this is not education this is Brainwashing and Indoctrination Kruschev would love this Thunberg Freak
