The thing is that Greta's message is not aimed at individual people but to leaders to implement plans. Unlike big companies, that do the dirty work of polluting and then are constantly putting blame on people individuality. So that's why, perhaps, some people are so rattled, they're fed up of being made to feel guilty, but that's not Greta's aim. And indeed, it's the governments around the world that need to stand up to big polluters, to come up with plans of how to deal with plastic garbage, carbon and other toxic emissions that are, frankly, directly responsible for millions of deaths among people.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
