Thought Greta Thunberg would have solid odds to win TIME Person of the Year. Checked out the markets…and yeah she is the massive favorite right now.
I hope she wins. She’s reaching Hillary and AOC levels of hate from the right.
That would piss off a whole lot of climate change ostriches. Sad though so much hate is going to her.

Ok we believe in climate change - but what if we actually have to make sacrifices?
And of course the ever important impact on the German wine industry.
She’s also been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, though I would rather see Jane Goodall win that one (also nominated) if they’re going to give it to an environmental activist.

There is definitely a riptide-strength undercurrent of misogyny running through the attacks on her.
Also, I love her, but if we’re giving Nobel Peace Prizes to environmental activists, then I’m sorry, but Jane Goodall (who has also been nominated) deserves it more.
But I think Jose Andres might win it.

If every 15-year-old had a voice and knew what we were doing to their future, they’d all sound like this.
