Morphine Prince 109,645 Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 OSLO (Reuters) - Swedish teenager Greta Thunberg's shaming of world leaders and air travelers over climate change has won her millions of admirers and attracted many new followers to her cause. But it just might cost her the Nobel Peace Prize. Thunberg, one of few people whose nomination has become known before the awards ceremony, is the bookmakers' favorite to win the prize next month. At 16, she would be the youngest recipient of the $930,000 award won by the likes of Nelson Mandela, Jimmy Carter and Mikhail Gorbachev. She would be the first to win the prize for environmental work since former U.S. vice president Al Gore shared it in 2007 for raising awareness of climate change.

FABian 852 Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 I disagree. She represented nothing but rage and propaganda. She should get the award when she goes to, and calls out CHINA. China wasnt even in the meeting, I dont know who exactly she was talking to, because China is by far the biggest polluter in our planet and they have shown time and time again that they really dont give a ****. So yeah, she can get it if she pressures China instead of being emotional on stage. Props to her for speaking out though, it takes a lot to be able to do what she did. Although I question the intentions of her parents. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
