Greta Thunberg uses pathos throughout the speech to get her message across the audience and help her case. She starts off my saying,”How dare you ruin my future?” This resembles not only to Greta but all the Gen-Z’s, as the current rate of climate change is soon going to cause irreversible damage to the earth. She guilts the audience by explaining the normal teenage experiences she is missing, because she is having to educate grown adults on climate change, ¨This is all wrong. I shouldn’t be up here. I should be back in school on the other side of the ocean. Yet, you all come to us young people for hope. How dare you!¨ She uses facts logos while stating how cutting our emissions in half on gives us a 50% chance to save the irreversible change.
She uses pathos around the end,”The eyes of all future generations are upon you, and if you fail us, we will never forgive you.”
