@Ukilkelly @jenoconnell Dear Prof, Looks rather hypocritical to see a Swedish teenager rallying for her to-be children's tomorrow, while innocent children die each day in places like Yemen, without having a "today". As if we passively permit such crimes by sheer silence or diverting to climate change!

[Evidence-Based Medicine @Evidence_BasedM]

@jenoconnell Global powers have used fossil fuels for industrial development, and now the third world is trying to reach, we ban the use of fossil fuel and rally and protest, without giving them today's technology, hence condemning them for the nations lifetime to poverty and dependence.

@jenoconnell But, is climate the world's greatest problem right now? Every 15 second a human dies of tuberculosis and no one seems to give a quantum of attention, why? Most are from Africa or other 3rd-world countries.
