They should kill themselves to save the world from all the CO2 they would produce in a lifetime.

A bunch of rich, privileged, white kids telling everyone else how bad they are...

The NWO is at it again.

Let me say this: I'm a soft, effete, pretentious middle-aged white man living high above the "unwashed masses" in a expensive condo tower in downtown Nashville. I admit my shortcomings and would likely scoff at these young people more than you would. There is a absurdity to what they are doing.

Having said that ... we all need to be more respectful of the earth and the environment.

So in a way ... good for these "young rich, privileged, white kids telling everyone else" about the realities of the planet. Let's open our eyes and be respectful.

My sister-in-law has two degrees from the UofL and I often root for the Cards. You and I would probably get along fine ... until you wanted to punch me.

How does one be "respectful" of an inanimate object like "the earth" or "the environment"?

You're talking about our planet as if it has feelings.

You're talking about "the environment" as if it's a superbeing or a deity that can think and respond to actions humans take.

In a lot of ways, we have begun to really take better care of the environment. My issue is that the NWO is using this to create more government red tape that has nothing to do with taking care of the environment whatsoever. If you are wanting to know who I am referring to with the "NWO", it is George Soros and his political allies, including Antifa.

A protest like that does nothing to advance there cause. Want to prove you care, stay after the game for trash pickup, organize a stream cleaning or use the respective schools massive endowments to create the inventions needed. What happened yesterday was the equivalent of a $#!+post on reddit.

OK, now I'll post in a sober manner.

And I'll answer Captain Bearcats' question: How does one be "respectful" of an inanimate object like "the earth" or "the environment"?

I consider the planet, the environment and all animals living and breathing things that should be treated with respect and humility.

I do agree that the protest offered elements of absurdity. But we can all (myself included) do better to "reduce and resuse" (I recycle but I'm not sure it does much good and it might do some harm).

I won't bring my religious views into this ... but that's how a I feel. Love the earth and be appreciative that we have it.

The only question I have is: are you prepared to go to nuclear war? If you don’t understand that question and how it relates to protecting the environment, or you think it’s a joke, then you have no clue what you’re talking about. The fact of the matter is that unless you are willing to accept the death of billions through nuclear Armageddon, there is nothing that can be done according to the timelines put forth by politicians and climate activists.

What's sad here is that the game was a fantastic one, Yale beating Harvard 50-43 in double OT with the lights literally going out - thanks to the protest, the sun had just about set, and the Yale Bowl does not have lights, so the final series were played in near-darkness.

Harvard led by 14 points, 36-22, with just a 1:30 remaining.

Great ballgame but the Yale win is overshadowed by the silly protesters.

Can't wait until they get out into the real world. Investing in Puerto Rican debt. What a great idea!

Considering the solutions we're being offered are "eat insects, don't breed, and live in a shipping container," can you blame us for being a little skeptical?
