Climate activists block private jets *Climate activists storm Amsterdam airport and block private jets.* This tactic makes a lot of sense, and is far better than gluing oneself to the glass protective cover over a painting. First, because neither those jets, nor the private jet terminals, are precious. Expensive, yes, but that's not the same thing as precious. Second, because the jets emit lots of CO2. Third, because the people who fly in them and will be inconvenienced by the protest are rich, and are probably significantly to blame for the world's inadequate efforts for climate defense. I used to fly more than most people Americans, back before Covid-19. Nonetheless, my overall global heating footprint is modest, because of my conscious decision to avoid the action that, for most people, adds the most: having children. One child produces many times as much greenhouse gas as all the flights I will take in my life. |
