Teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg was “ignored” by world leaders at the United Nations COP25 climate change summit in Madrid on Friday.
Speaking with reporters, Thunberg said her calls for action on the climate have been ignored and admitted her protests have achieved “nothing.”
“We have been striking now for over a year, and still basically nothing has happened,” Thunberg said, according to Sky News.
“The climate crisis is still being ignored by those in power,” she added.

Thousands of young people were expected to gather at the UN climate conference and in the streets of the Spanish capital on Friday to protest against the lack of progress in tackling the climate emergency, as officials from more than 190 countries wrangled over the niceties of wording in documents related to the Paris accord.
In the four years since the landmark agreement was signed, greenhouse gas emissions have risen by 4% and the talks this year are not expected to produce new commitments on carbon from the world’s biggest emitters.
Thunberg, as she typically does, also reverted to climate change alarmism on Friday, claiming the actions of humanity will result in an unsustainable future if environmental actions continue to go unchecked.
“We can’t go on like this; it is not sustainable that children skip school and we don’t want to continue — we would love some action from the people in power. People are suffering and dying today. We can’t wait any longer,” she said, the Guardian reported.
Thunberg arrived in Europe this week after embarking on a three-week transatlantic journey, which made headlines because the trip did not save carbon emissions as expected. Thunberg travels via boat, train, and car because she refuses to fly.

That’s the only thing to do, ignore the stupid indoctrinated #ClimateCrackpots and their #ClimateScam!
#DisruptionRebellion!
I guess ignoring those greenies is not enough, they will have to be taught real science.
Go Home Greta the limelight is fading just go back home and celebrate Christmas according to your countiries tradition
The whole Greta thing got real old real fast, didn’t it?
Greta, you’ve just admitted that your campaign is a failure. Skipping school? Older than dirt. Stop it. You’ve been used.
What did she expect? That we were just going to shut the oil and gas pipes off and go home to die!?
Radical greenies and their supporters should be required to register with the authorities. The credit cards they try to use to fill their cars with gas should be refused.
How zit feel to be ignored, Greta ?
You’ll wind up like Cindy Sheehan.
Used, abused and forgotten.
Your 15 minutes are up.
Thank you for all the comments. I totally agree with the sentiment(s).
Greta and the Pope have one thing in common. They both elicit a large number of comments on this web site.
What Greta is trying to do is by pass the democratic process and force her will on the people. This has worked in the UK, but she shouldn’t expect it to work world wide.
Going away (perhaps), but not being forgotten, I just saw this morning (next day) that Greta was selected as this year’s Time Magazine “Person of the Year.” We can hope that this kind of recognition signals her demise as someone to which the world pays rapt attention.
If these fools gave up all products in their home that had any thing to do with Fossil Fuels they would be sitting in a empty cold dark room wearing nothing
