Major states snub calls for climate action as U.N. summit wraps up

MADRID (Reuters) - A handful of major states resisted pressure on Sunday to ramp up efforts to combat global warming as a U.N. climate summit ground to a close, angering smaller countries and a growing protest movement that is pushing for emergency action.

The COP25 talks in Madrid were viewed as a test of governments' collective will to heed the advice of science to cut greenhouse gas emissions more rapidly, in order to prevent rising global temperatures from hitting irreversible tipping points.

But the conference, in its concluding draft, endorsed only a declaration on the "urgent need" to close the gap between existing emissions pledges and the temperature goals of the landmark 2015 Paris climate agreement - an outcome U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called disappointing.

Brazil, China, Australia, Saudi Arabia and the United States had led resistance to bolder action, delegates said.

The negotiations became mired in disputes over the rules that should govern international carbon trading, favored by wealthier countries to reduce the cost of cutting emissions. Brazil and Australia were among the main holdouts, delegates said, and the summit deferred big decisions on carbon markets.

Smaller nations had also hoped to win guarantees of financial aid to cope with climate change.

We have long since passed the point where non-violence is an effective solution because it obviously isn’t. If it was, there would be no pollution or littering at all.

Greta Thunberg Documentary Set At Hulu, Chronicling Climate Activist’s Global Rise

Sixteen-year-old climate activist Greta Thunberg is the subject of Greta (working title), an original documentary that will premiere on Hulu in 2020. The documentary is produced by Cecilia Nessen and Frederik Heinig via B-Reel Films and directed by Nathan Grossman.

The logline: In August 2018, Thunberg, a 15-year-old student in Sweden, starts a school strike for the climate. Her question for adults: if you don’t care about my future on earth, why should I care about my future in school? Within months, her strike evolves into a global movement. The quiet teenage girl on the autism spectrum becomes a world-famous activist.

The team behind Greta has been following Thunberg from her early school strike in Stockholm all the way to parliaments and massive international protests, documenting her mission to make the world understand the urgency of the climate crisis. According to sources, Hulu boarded the project awhile back and had been involved behind the scenes while deals were being made.

Thunberg recently was named Person of the Year, the youngest individual to get the recognition. She became a household name in the U.S. during her tour of North America this past fall. She attended rallies, met with world leaders and spoke at the United Nations Climate Action Summit in New York City. Her UN speech, in which she criticized world leaders for their inaction on the climate crisis, got international attention, and her interactions with President Donald Trump went viral. She recently made another big splash on the international scene with her appearance at the COP25 Climate Change conference.

I don't really mind Greta and I support her cause, but the people getting mad at others for attacking her are just fucking stupid. Of course she's going to get attacked, she's a celebrity. She put herself out there and started making (rightfully) accusatory and angry speeches where she's essentially told people they're going to be responsible for genocide and that it's their fault she's decided to become a celebrity and activist. Being sixteen doesn't matter, she put herself and her words and her personality out into the world and decided to become a celebrity. That means she's fair game for criticism. People talk shit about celebrity children all the time and nobody seems to bat an eye. When people make fun of Beyoncé or Kanye or Brad Pitt's kids nobody calls that bullying. Why is it different with Greta? And for that matter, why is it not bullying to make fun of Baron? Make up your mind, either all kids are fair game or no kids are. It's fucked up to decide which children are okay to bully and which children aren't.

She's a child, she's on the autism spectrum. Her concerns about the climate are legitimate, but children tend to think in more black/white terms. Apparently, the world is so desperate for leadership that people are willing to grant her all sorts of powers that are beyond her and then criticize her when she can't live up to all this implicit authority. The media needs to stop quoting her as some kind of authority when she makes these kinds of childish comments, but they are all looking for clickbait. She's a passionate kid like the kids from Marjory Stoneman Douglas who got involved in anti-gun violence campaigning. Thus, her concerns should be taken seriously, but her comments should be put into context.
