Environmental hypocrite flies from Washington D.C. to California to demand that other people stop using fossil fuels

Here’s the latest example of environmental hypocrisy.

The Los Angeles Times just reported:

Police arrest young climate protesters for blocking street near Kamala Harris’ home

Demanding more action on the climate crisis, young activists blocked an intersection Monday morning near Vice President Kamala Harris’ Brentwood home, leading police to arrest six of them without incident.

Harris did not interact with the demonstrators, as her motorcade took an alternate route from her home to Los Angeles International Airport that morning.

High school student Wei Zhou, 17, came from their home in Washington, D.C., to join the demonstration, having participated in a similar protest outside President Biden’s home in Delaware in February. Declaring a climate emergency would allow Biden “to unlock a bunch of powers,” said Zhou, who joined the movement at 14.

That could include protecting people affected by climate disasters from eviction and providing them free healthcare, they said.

Zhou stood with a dozen additional protesters across the street from the blockade. “Harris, Harris, can’t you see, this is an emergency,” they chanted, alternating the latter phrase with “fossil fuels are killing me” and “this will be your legacy.”

Why, Zhou? Just... why?

Declaring a climate emergency would allow Biden “to unlock a bunch of powers,” said Zhou [...]

Even more effective than setting fire to the Reichstag!

That could include protecting people affected by climate disasters from eviction and providing them free healthcare, they [??] said.

Would no doubt also include making the money to pay for it all appear - poof! - out of thin air like magic!

“Harris, Harris, can’t you see, this is an emergency,” they chanted, alternating the latter phrase with “fossil fuels are killing me” and “this will be your legacy.”

Kid probably flew First Class, too!

Regards,

“Police arrest young climate protesters for blocking street near Kamala Harris’ home”

Hey, it’s OK for protesters to shut down bridges in big cities because that only inconveniences the plebes but don’t you dare block any streets around Government big wig homes.

To allow Greta to use sailboat, four sailors had to be flown to Europe.
Her show carbon footprint was at least quadruple compared to her just flying to the speech.

Interesting irony here, that these protesters pushing global warming, protesting against someone such as Kamala Harris who is on their side.

Apparently the Biden Administration and Kamala just aren’t liberal enough, when it comes to the global warming issue.

Yep, I remember Greta and her stunt of sailing to America in an allegedly carbon and pollution free sailing vessel.

She has been known to travel by train , so apparently trains are okay, but planes are verboten.

Does she walk to different European nations, or even to protest sites?😋

I wonder whether or not she would walk, as someone might “accidentally “ try to run over her. Actually, it is probably not safe for her to be out in public, so to stay home & shut up might be the safest & most strategic thing to do.

Well, we see her getting arrested every now & then. I've seen people trying to interview her while she is walking, she just smiles and keeps walking. So, she walks.

Greta Thunberg, a 16-year-old Swedish climate activist, arrived in New York on August 28, 2019, aboard a 60ft Malizia II yacht equipped with solar panels and underwater turbines that produce electricity. The boat had no shower or toilets, and those aboard, including Thunberg's father and crew members, planned to eat freeze-dried food throughout the trip. Thunberg chose sailing over flying to attend a United Nations climate summit and raise awareness about the greenhouse gases emitted by commercial airplanes. She intends to join the U.N. climate change conference in Santiago, Chile, in December.

The above is AI generated from different sources. The may or may not be honest & accurate. But I have no way of knowing if they are or aren't. 🙂

Her parents are rich, so she lives in a house full of creature comforts. Greta Thunberg's parents are Malena Ernman and Svante Thunberg. Malena is an opera singer and Sweden's Eurovision star in 2009. Greta's father, Svante, is a cultural worker in Sweden. In other words, leftists as they come.

I suggest replacing “their” with “its”.

Add EVs and it's the commie trifecta.
