The point is that we have no idea how many of them left mess behind (it wont be all of them) and we have no idea how many support climate activism (it also won't be all of them). Sure there's likely to be some hypocrites and some overlap but taking a stab at how much those two groups overlap is complete guesswork.
Online hysterics would have us all believe that today's youngsters are all Greta Thunbergs, marching around with LGBTQ flags. 3 years of having a daughter in high school has confirmed that that's maybe 10% of teenagers and the rest are not any different to how we were in high school in the slightest. Literally exactly the same thoughts, attitudes and dramas that I saw in school 25 years ago. Gen Z as a homogenous group is an internet myth.
Now there is the unfortunate fact that some politicians and other influential people seem to be buying into that myth... but that's another discussion.
