i knew about greta thunberg. i knew she was on the autism spectrum. had never read anybody explained what that means in terms of her relationship to the climate crisis and her way of communicating. naomi klein enabled me to see what it is about greta t that makes her so powerful as a leader of the young climate movement.. -- if someones with as is interested in a topic, their focus is laserbeam. they are not concerned with what other people think or they might be unpopular or oh, my god, this is terrible, polar bears are starving. and if i men's later, i just bought a new parable jeans. she doesn't think that way. is as focused and she science nerd. ofn she heard and learned the science and that the scientists were alall in agreemt about the crisis that was looming, first she did not believe it because she said, if this is true, nobody would be talking about anything else. it can't be true because everyone would have stopped their life and be focused totally on this issue. when she realized it was true and nobody was behaving appropriately, is so trau

amy: i want to turn right now in the greta thunberg new york studios and when i asked her about t her message fr young people. >> the message to young people of the world is that right now we are facing an existential crisis. i mean, the climate and ecological crisis, and it will have a massive impact on our lives in the future, but also now, especially in vulnerable communities. and i think that we should wake up, and we should also try to wake t the adults upup, becausey are the ones who -- their generation is the ones who are mostly responsible for this crisis, and we need to hold them accountable. we need to hold the people in power accountable for what they have been doing to us and future generations and other living species on earth. and we need to get angry and understand what is at stake. and then we need to transform that anger into action and to stand together united and just never give up. amy: that is wedded to merck in our new york studio when she first arrived in new york, when she first took a zero emissions sailboat across the atlantic to new york. i want to turn righ

i am very much looking forward to hearing the today programme guest edited by greta thunberg, which in understand. i would love the idea of taking a foreign assignment and getting there by boat or rail but i don't think my editors would agree with that either. it is talking the talk or walking the walk and people might be rolling their eyes. my nine—year—old, i am getting hassle for him, he is obsessed with her. does he not want you to fly any more? he hasn't quite said that. i think i can outweigh on that. young people are interested in her and what she is about and she is seen as a heroine to so many people around the world. she meets up with david attenborough. they had their first ever conversation. talking about passing on the torch earlier on, and it will be interesting to hear that conversation tomorrow morning. was ita conversation tomorrow morning. was it a skype conversation? in terms of the world of business, one way forward would be to have more meetings and so on without flying. people having big skype conversations and webcam conversations, rather than always flying to s

i would have done the same. >> how many mcribs did she have in that bucket? 40. >> were you surprised when he came on the climate march and grabbed the mic from greta thunberg? >> no. i was not shocked about that at all. >> what was about the look of thunberg's face? >> she was in shock. i would have had the same reaction. >> what did you think of bill cosby's come-back comedy tour? >> he does look good for his age. that's for sure. >> you were a little proud of him? >> you know, it's tough to say that i'm proud of bill cosby. but, you know, i guess everybody does their own thing, so. >> why did president trump pardon millie, but not vanilly? >> because of a different religion i believe? because one is black and one is white. >> he's handsome and he fits the character perfectly. >> what did you think when you saw nathan landis for james bond. >> i couldn't wait to see the movie. >> were you outraged when the president made friendship bracelets with the taliban? >> i don't agree with a lot of things he does. that was one thing that pissed me off. >> when did you she? >> i don't know, i live with my sugar daddy. >> reporter: what's your sugar daddy's name? >> d

you are 15, as i say, greta thunberg is 16, how do you feel about the fact that it is up to young peopleis is my third cop it now, and this is my third cop it now, and this time, it was a lot more young people than ever before, and i think thatis people than ever before, and i think that is good. because it shows how strong we are, standing together, but it should not be our responsibility. but now, when it is, we stand together and we stand together to put pressure on those in power. when did you get involved with this activism? i started working on this when i was eight yea rs working on this when i was eight years old, and it was a lot of reasons why. the main reason i believe is actually very simple. it is because i love life and i love to live it. is it a shock or a surprise to you that there aren't as many adults who seem to care about this? i'm sad, because it isn't. also, there are some adults who care really try to make the changes that we see. sometimes, we need to wait for people to get ready to change, but i think we need to make people ready. we need leaders that talk to the

i want to see that. we'll talk later. >>> thinking about sustainability, should we all do like greta thunberg and try not to fly? ta thunberg has raised interesting questions about sustainability. travel at the moment contributes to about 2% of the carbon emissions, so it isn't this enormous problem compared to all other industries that we should all make effort. i would encourage everyone if you're flying, think about single-use products. airlines use throwaway cups. that's a big problem. cruise ships have tried not to do that. norwegian has said starting tomorrow the there will be no sing-use cruises. buy a water bottle. take that with you when you travel, and -- >> is there a trend we saw in 2019 that you don't think will continue in 2020? >> that's a great question. i think some of the -- some of the home sharing stuff where it feels like we're going to stay at airbnb, i think we're learning, oh, no. there's all these new options. so don't worry, the hotels aren't going away. >> stay open-minded. >> of course. >> happy new year. >> mark elmwood, thank you so much. >>> from flying to food. ed o'keefe shows us

[ laughter ] maybe that could be how greta thunberg saves the world. i should point out greta was not the only target of the president's thumb war. he had a banner day. he tweet asked or retweeted 91 times before noon today. if you do anything 91 times before noon you belong in a mental institution. they called ate tweet storm but that doesn't capture it. we should come up with a new term for when he does this, like a donsoon, a liefoon, a tittytwister. this was the president's official schedule for the day. brief speech at 11:15. intelligence briefing at noon. a party at 7:00. people in assisted living facilities do more than this in a day. we're spending a huge amount of energy trying to remove a man from office who is never in his office. that party tonight is by the way the white house congressional ball. it's him with members of congress, great timing on that. last night trump presided over the hanukkah celebration and what a lovefest. melania ate it up. >> we're thrilled, thank you, i love you too, thank you. i love ivanka. i love our first lady. >

and i believe the younger generations, greta thunberg and ourchildren, wait for nothing less.and the question is, will it be enough? mark, as greta thunberg herself has said, in madrid we have achieved nothing. she and the other young climate activists have achieved a raising in consciousness, as eunice was saying, but in terms of an actual remodelling of how the economy works, we lie in wait. any government will put climate change on top of its priority, but when it comes to the crunch, it is employment that leaders will be elected on. they will put employment and economic growth above anything, and that means that climate change is not in practice the top issue. this being said, the good news, as you said, is that the young people are aware of it, and they are at the forefront of it, and also that the green movement is coming back. at the european election, they did very well, and they are coming, now, almost to government in the lower countries and in germany. so those are positive aspects. europe is not on target to meet its 2030 targets. well, the other issues, linked in

and about greta thunberg. i was like -- this is the president doing this stuff. it shocks me. >> it doesn't shock me anymore. that's the sad thing. you mention two women. he is particularly vicious towards women. and particularly vicious towards women on the grounds of looks. >> your reaction is the right one. we should not accept this. we need to maintain sense of out rage. >> every time i see it i can't believe it. >> i would say there's a reason why he does this. he can't run a positive campaign for himself on the merits. he has to drag other people down. he can only win by making everyone else seems worse. he goes to the bottom of gutter at every opportunity. >> it's vile. it's really just gross. >> totally. >> let's talk about the senate trial. shumer wants four witnesses. mcconnell doesn't want any. here's what he argued in 1999 about clinton impeachment trial. >> every other impeachment that's come to the senate has ended with votes on the articles. every other impeachment had witnesses. it's not unusual to have a witness in a trial. the house managers ask

my name is greta thunberg. i am 16 years old. i come from sweden.nd i want you to panic. >> stephen: my name is stephen colbert, i'm 55 years old, and i'm way ahead of you, sister. ( laughter ) ( applause ) ( cheering ) ( piano riff ) this year, the finalists for person of the year included: the hong kong protesters, the whistleblower, nancy pelosi, and donald trump. so trump lost to a 16-year-old girl. but he's been on the cover multiple times before, was magnanimous in defeat, and he congratulated her, saying she deserved the honor. just kidding. ( laughter ) he tweeted, "so ridiculous. greta must work on her anger management problem, then go to a good old-fashioned movie with a friend! chill, greta, chill!" ( booing ) first of all, teens don't go to movies anymore. they stay home and tik tok their vape pens on fortnite. ( laughter ) i don't know. teenagers scare me. also, remember, thunberg is from sweden, so a "good old-fashioned movie" there is probably something called "the saw maker's widow," that's just four hours of max van sydow staring at

responsibility to know who you're talking about and to be careful because words matter. >> i think it's key to who greta thunbergse she speaks about it as her superpower. you can link that to the fact that she is very direct, that she doesn't really suffer fools, and she gets right to the point. she speaks what's on her mind. it's right out there, and the president sees that, gloria, as an anger problem. >> well, she beat him. he would love to be "time" man of the year, of course, and that wasn't happening. and she won. and it doesn't matter that she's a child. it doesn't matter the age differential. it doesn't matter who she is in particular -- >> he's envious. >> he is completely envious. he wants to be the winner, not the loser. everything is personal to him. everything is personal to him, and that's what this is about. and he's president of the united states. and he's got a bully pulpit, and he's got a twitter account with who knows how many millions of people, and this is what he chooses to do with it? >> it's small, but i have to say -- i'm going to disagree a little bit. she's a public speaker, she gives

climate summit in madrid spain, alongside greta thunberg. i am where everyone can be arrested for anything, but i am not afraid to be arrested. i'm afraid not to do enough. and i think and i believe that we can change everything because behind us there are millions of people. behind us there is a sign. activism is the solution. amy: and milons of people around the world celrated christmas wednesday. pope francis prayed for migrants around the world and condemned "inhumane detention camps"s" during his annual christmas day address at st. peter's basilica in the vatican city. >> made the son of god come down to earth from heaven, protect and sustain all of those who, due to these and other injustices, areorced to emigrate in the hope of a secure life. it is injustice that makes them cross deserts and sees th become cemeteries. it is injustice that forces them to endure unspeakable forms of abuse, enslavement of every kind, and torture and inhumane detention camps. it is injustice that turns them away from places where they might have the hope of

it is something incredible to witness the phenomenon of greta thunberg, who has gone from solid protests outside the parliament. ieen striking now for over a year, and still, basically nothing has happened. the climate crisis is still being ignored by those in power. as these protests continue into the night ahead of another week of summit talks, it's clear that world leaders are registering this message has never been so vocal. but few here believe there will be a sudden or significant breakthrough. climate change is being cited as making wildfires in australia more common. officials are warning they can't put out a "mega blaze" raging across a 60 kilometre front, just an hour's drive from sydney. and people who can't defend their property from the approaching fires have been told they should leave immediately. sonia harding is a resident on new south wales' central coast. she says this year's fires have been a big concern for people in her region. it's a huge worry, but there are so many fires, and these fires are starting tojoin many fires, and these fires are starting to join together, and you get these enorm

a few days ago, the young environmental activist, greta thunberg, urged world leaders to take more action. what i want to come out from this is as for every other such meeting, that world leaders finally understand the urgency and that they listen to the science and act on the science, that they start treating this crisis is like a crisis and co—operate internationally. she will be speaking to government ministers today in madrid. sue bonney, who's a senior partner at kpmg, joins me now. good morning. this analysis coming from amnesty international today obviously timed to happen when the summit is happening in madrid, when greta trombetta is going to speak and grab all the headlines, but there is nothing in there that we don't already know, would you say —— thunberg. we talk about generation 2 putting it at the top of the agenda, but if you are some that question two years ago, i would have said they were obsessed by disruption and data. right now in the summer we surveyed the ceos in the lightest organisations in climate was right at the top of the list. for the cyber security in a type of thin
