RE:RE:RE:SOMETHING TO KEEP AN EYE ONBicente
I think green peace and all the justifiable ramblings that go on with regards to carbon emissions...I think greenpeace should have bigger fish to fry at this moment...
The bomber is addressing this as it moves forward, but their ois nothing and I mean nothing other than a total ban on oil that would satisfy greenpeace.
It's obvious they go after the easiest targets...maybe they should target some points in the world that are real cvause for emissions such as USA..China, india and alll those oil producing nations...but going after the low hanging fruit and assured of no repercussions because of the targetted location seems to be a little cowardly.
CNBC ..kind of hypocrical of them since I can't remember the last time that they promoted lowering oil consumption in whatever industry since much of their market relies on oil and oil consumption.
All in all a tempest in a tea cup.

Iwas surprised the coverage this has received is extremely strong, with immediate coverage by CNN, Reuters, The Guardian, Time, CBC, CTV, ABC, CBS,Washington Post, Tribune India, Bangkok Post, Bloomberg, The Japan Times, and others. Do that search for yourself to read this coverage from the various sources.
Starsearcher80 wrote: The idea that business jets are bad for the climate seems to be getting traction, with the Greenpeace protest that just happened in Amsterdam. Traction in my books is two things. First, that some event happens, and secondly, that the media feels the story is newsworthy and picks up on it. The following article was just posted on CNBC. Climate activists swarm private jets at Amsterdam airport to protest pollution https://www.cnbc.com/2022/11/05/climate-protesters-swarm-amsterdams-schiphol-airport-.html?__source=androidappshare
