Joelsnan, I don't think it's her task to find the solutions. She's asking the politicians who should be providing leadership on climate change to do this - which they haven't been, for more than 20, 30, 40 or so years. I don't think she's suggesting that we go backwards either - I haven't heard her say that, at least. You're right that her message is simple - but I think that's ok: she's making the point that it's her future and those of other young people that we're risking by not taking action, and that seems an important point to make. After all, she is the only person to have galvanised attention on climate change in a long, long time and she deserves credit for that.
