Now Greta Thunberg has joined in, only she\u2019s looking to capitalize on Barbie\u2019s success for a different cause \u2014 climate protection. Barbie has been involved in some unusual collaborations recently. First, she was paired with Christopher Nolan\u2019s Oppenheimer for the worldwide release of Barbenheimer, and now she\u2019s fighting to prevent the climate crisis. Perhaps it\u2019s not that out of character, considering the doll\u2019s philosophy promotes girls to believe they can be and do anything they want to. And Greta Thunberg wants to protect the environment. Now \u2014 in her fight for a clean future \u2014 Thunberg has used one of Barbie\u2019s viral sounds to protest the development of Rosebank\u2019s oil and gas field in a new video. The proposed Rosebank project, which Thunberg is fighting hard to prevent, is expected to produce up to 500 million barrels of oil if approved. But its impact on the environment could be catastrophic. \u201cThis one project would produce more CO2 than the world\u2019s 28 poorest countries do in a year,\u201d \u2018StopCambo\u2019 posted on Instagram. \u201cAll the record-breaking heat waves and the extreme weather events we\u2019ve seen during the summer is just the beginning of a rapidly escalating existential crisis,\u201d Thunberg told Channel 4 when discussing the project. \u201cThe fact that the UK Government is even considering this tells us exactly how out of touch with reality they are.\u201d In hopes of reaching more people, Thunberg teamed up with other demonstrators and recreated a scene from the Barbie movie.ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss In the video, Thunberg lipsyncs to a scene in which Margot Robbie\u2019s Barbie asks, \u201cDo you guys ever think about dying?\u201d Only this time, dying has been replaced with \u201cclimate crisis\u201d. The three other demonstrates fill in as UK Ministers Schnapp and Rishi Sunak, along with Norwegian oil company Equinor, appearing started by Thunberg\u2019s question. The video was posted to the StopCambo Instagram account, with the caption warning that \u201cfor a safe climate and affordable energy, richer countries like the UK must stop expanding oil and gas production.\u201d For all the latest entertainment news, be sure to check out our page here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Greta Thunberg hops on viral Barbie trend in protest of oil and gas production Instagram: stopcamboWith Barbie breaking records at the box office and trending all over social media, many have taken to hopping on the pink bandwagon.
