Climate Minister (and 3 flunkies) flying to Chile........ to highlight climate change 🤦🏻‍♂️

[Ablondiebutagoody]

Labour’s Climate Minister, Katie White, flew to South America for 4 days in March with her private secretary, a policy official, and a press officer....... to highlight climate change.

AIBU to think that this doesn't make sense?

How else was she going to get there?

At the moment, there is no ther way to get there quickly. We need to work on improving the technology and cutting down on flying generally.

I decided about 10 years ago that I wouldn't fly again unless I had to. Since then, I've had some great train holidays in Europe. I will fly if I can afford to go and see my familiy in Australia, but that will probably be it.

This is the kind of one dimensional argument I’d expect from one of my year 7s and I’m going to guess you are not 12 @Ablondiebutagoody ?

How else would they get there? I don’t fly because of climate change - so they can have my flight allowance. I don’t need to fly. They do. How can you not understand that.
Do you have any concept of critical thinking?

Sir David Attenborough has done more to highlight the issues of climate change than anyone - he couldn’t have done that without flying.
Scientists are in The Antarctic - how do you think they got there?
People are working all over the globe in an effort to tackle climate change - they need fo get to those places.

Kylie Jenner frequently flies her jet distances she could travel by car.
Taylor Swift uses her jet like I do my bike. Moan about them.

You simply cannot be this…….!

Op are you going to come back and elaborate on your thread? Because as it stands - it’s looking like childish nonsense
