As for that teenager (who is on the Asperger's end of the autism spectrum -- you might want to look that up), don't be too quick to dismiss her with contempt. Much of the rest of the world, including very serious and very influential people and institutions, have concluded that she is, herself, a serious and influential person. Check her Wikipedia profile.
Listening to all these selfproclaimed so called influencers are going to go very badly indeed. This poor girl is beeing abused by left wing radicals who believe we should go back the horse and cart society, and that all business growth is evil.
The only thing we can do, is use our common sence. And yes the aviation industry also needs to be more green. But flying is really one of the smallest contributors to the greenhousegas emission problem. Facebook contributes a lot more to the emissions..
