No, I'm sure there are more diplomatic ways.
1. What power do kids have with which to influence adults?
2. Why does the pandemic have anything to do with anything? It's a weird non sequitur if your intent wasn't to suggest bioterrorism.
Pandemic versus climate is basically the adult's future versus children's future.
That's why I'm saying children should take a stand here.
We adults have been failing them miserably and we should be ashamed of ourselves.
The audacity to tell them that they should bargain with us for their future. Unbelievable.
