[...] So a 50% risk is simply not acceptable to us — we who have to live with the consequences.
To have a 67% chance of staying below a 1.5C global temperature rise – the best odds given by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change — the world had 420 gigatons of carbon dioxide left to emit back on 1 January 2018. Today that figure is already down to less than 350 gigatons."

Aristotle defines rhetoric as "the faculty of observing in any given case the available means of persuasion". Plato defined the scope of rhetoric according to his negative opinions of the art. He criticized the Sophists for using rhetoric as a means of deceit instead of discovering thruth. In Rome there is Cicero who is often thought to be one of Rome's greatest orators and prose stylist.]]> 2019-10-11 18:19:42 UTC https://padlet.com/beatrice001/pzg4z0n8cjac/wish/396828204 beatrice001 https://padlet.com/beatrice001/pzg4z0n8cjac/wish/396831869 2019-10-11 18:24:44 UTC https://padlet.com/beatrice001/pzg4z0n8cjac/wish/396831869 Greta's most emphatic phrases beatrice001 https://padlet.com/beatrice001/pzg4z0n8cjac/wish/396835489 "This is all wrong, I shouldn't be up here, I should  be back in school on the other side of the ocean"

Soon, other students engaged in similar protests in their own communities. Together, they organised a school climate strike movement under the name Fridays for Future. After Thunberg addressed the 2018 United Nations Climate Change Conference, student strikes took place every week somewhere in the world. In 2019, there were at least two coordinated multi-city protests involving over one million students each.]]> 2019-10-15 14:46:54 UTC https://padlet.com/beatrice001/pzg4z0n8cjac/wish/397948100 beatrice001 https://padlet.com/beatrice001/pzg4z0n8cjac/wish/397951216 2019-10-15 14:51:14 UTC https://padlet.com/beatrice001/pzg4z0n8cjac/wish/397951216 beatrice001 https://padlet.com/beatrice001/pzg4z0n8cjac/wish/397978234 With her words and her actions Greta tries to sensitize the enviromental conscience of the powerful of the Earth and not only. Greta Thunberg is now the symbol of the struggles against climate change and she was the first to organize the Fridays for future. The young Swedish activist delivered some speeches during important occasions. The most important Greta's speech is the last one at the United Nations Glass Palace in New York on 23 September 2019. "You have stolen my dreams and my childhood".

There are words such betrayal, failure and the anaphor "HOW DARE YOU", that perfectly summarizes the disdain of the new generation towards the governments that are not careful to the issue.  ]]> 2019-10-15 15:47:39 UTC https://padlet.com/beatrice001/pzg4z0n8cjac/wish/397991598
