I have a different take on her. I think she's utterly crazed. I don't know
what her medical or mental problems are, but there's something clearly wrong
with her head. I think she was brought in to put on a performance. I'm not
saying that she's "in" on the scam: Rather, I think she was selected to do
what she did. That's probably her normal behavior, more or less.
That doesn't mean the "climate crisis" isn't a problem. But I think a large
fraction of the motivation behind it is the desire to increase the size and
scope of government. What 'they' need is a large, seemingly intractable
problem, one that ostensibly requires great government intervention, taxation,
etc.
The problem is seen to be a sham when it is apparent that the people who push
it are not only uninterest in, and indeed actively shun a potential treatment.
