Walk the Walk on Emissions
Since 1999, the United Nations has held over 230 meetings on climate change in places like British Colombia, Edmonton, Alberta, and Montreal, Canada. And also in places like Buenos Aires, Argentina; Brussels, Belgium; Shanghai, China; Cairo, Egypt; Addis Ababa, Ethiopia; New Delhi, India; Paris, France; Bangkok, Thailand; Milan, Italy; Yokohama, Japan; Moscow, Russia; Athens, Greece; Lisbon, Portugal; Vienna, Austria; Copenhagen, Denmark; Cairns, Australia; Cook Islands; San Salvador; Bonn, Germany; Belize City; Acra, Ghana; Kingston, Jamaica; Nairobi, Kenya; Lillehammer, Norway; Cebu, Philippines; St. Lucia; and most recently, Monaco.
The costs for flying a single person to each of these meetings is $200,000. The carbon emissions for flying a single person from New York City to each of these meetings is equivalent to heating 40 to 50 homes for an entire year.
If the UN has committed itself to reducing emissions, haven’t they ever heard of a conference call?

They know it’s not …
They know it’s not warming the planet. It’s just for the slaves, so they will pay a tax to the UN, so The UN can riase a army, so that if the slaves ever want to be free they can kill them.

Yes, they are …
Yes, they are hypocrites. But they also know, amongst themselves, that global warming is a political ruse, albeit a ruse that is quickly losing believability with the public, so all that jet travel is not contributing to any temperature effect. However, it is a big waste of money, taxpayer money. The money they spend living this jet set lifestyle is very much real. Check out my profile for some truth on the matter.
