I’m guessing all these people who travelled to NY for the protest didn’t travel on bicycles did they? It’s nothing but a bunch of cry baby hypocrites

[lemontadams]

They will be pushing shopping carts for transportation 🤡

[drzaius]

Where's a black guy in an SUV when you need one

[ricardosoto-velez]

Let's you know how easily led stupid people can be..

[DeWhytePoverty]

Love how they all wearing clothes made by Oil byproducts using markers made by Oil byproducts paper signs sticks... Basically everything they love to use fridges stoves Lights.... etc... I mean c'mon muh butts been wiped.

[xmixaplix]

😂 end fossil fuels. I dare him honestly. 0 fossil fuels in this country and see what happens in a month

[BigW]

I wonder how many of them drove their car to the protest. Kind of a double standard huh?

[kevinlamprecht]

Ok so end fossil fuels let's use horses again

[richardmann]

Are the protesters offering any solutions or are they just protesting?

[edabreu]

Your station is so biased it’s impossible to get reliable information.

[vikingraider]

What a mess glad I’m not living there with all those crazies

[b.mackin]

Does anyone remember the Owl with the "REDUCE, Reuse, Recycle!" slogan? We completely threw out the Reduse and reuse part. We recycle because some who makes good money off it sold recycling to us. How can we get off fossil fuels when as a whole we are addicted to buying new things? Shopping=Fuel. Reduce wasted spending on next day delivered items that you bought because you were board=less fossil fuel demand. Less demand= Less fossil fuel production!!

[JerryBinkley]

Removal of fuels is similar to Removal of guns think hard about it

[JerryBinkley]

Total removal of fuels is a bad idea and sign bad intentions are there

[sandrareynolds]

Your Global Warming is GOD………He’s angry !

[Jekuyuyttt]

My biggest gripe is habitat loss. This world is going to get hot no matter what, we do need to slow it down though of course.

[MrFancyFingers]

There’s no way to stop fossil fuels completely, it’s more realistic to filter and capture burnt fuel gasses.
Every piece of rubber and plastic, which makes of over 90% of everything you own, is made from petroleum.

[winston]

Looks like the same dipps who go apoplectic at mention of nuclear heat making steam to spin generators. They can go home thinking they've done something constructive. 😆👈

[senorchewie]

Wooo I love NPR❤❤❤ also all the people that get upset about more objective leaning news
