There are plenty of countries which have far greater pollution than the UK, but it would be politically and personally unwise for Greta (and her brigade) to visit.
I think any fool - whatever their proficiency in spelling - can see the evidence for themselves and realise that action should be taken now!!

From cold to hot, from dry to very wet.But should, at some time in the future, the climate become so extreme as to be hostile to human life, another species will take our place. Perhaps insects? Or if the seas cover the earth, the dolphin might be a good successor. Very intelligent, going by their brains (larger, more complex than human brains), having a language to communicate. They seem to tell each other that god created them in his image.
A small point about the dodo, didnt it become extinct because it
couldnt fly to escape the human invaders?
If it could fly, maybe would have escaped and survived, and maybe
its extinction could be blamed on a design fault? TIC of course!

After a time the species dodo would consist of only flyers.
But, do you donate money to save the tiger in india? I don't. If human expansion claims so much jungle that tigers are driven to extinction, that for me is a simple fact of nature.
