Flight attendants know the real job killer isn’t the Green New Deal. It’s climate change.

**SNIP**
In my 23 years as a flight attendant and president of our union representing 50,000 others, I know firsthand the threat climate change poses to our safety and our jobs. But flight attendants and airline workers have been told by some pundits that the Green New Deal, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Ed Markeys environmental proposal, will ground all air travel.
Thats absurd. Its not the solutions to climate change that kills jobs. Climate change itself is the job killer.
Severe turbulence is becoming more frequent and intense due in part to climate change. Research indicates that rising CO2 levels in the atmosphere cause disruptions to the jet streams and create dangerous wind shears that greatly increase turbulence, especially at moderate latitudes where the majority of air travel occurs.

This UNION leader needs to travel to South & East Asia tosee how air travel has expanded and is expanding further.
And sister, what caused the global warming which ended the last ice age? That was dozens of millenniums ago, when all humans had was flint stones to burn fossil fuels.
And sister leader needs to know the Sun is MILLION times bigger than puny earth and easily controls our climate.

To: Bonemaker
I have from a personal standpoint nothing against stewardesses whatsoever.
I do have issues with glorified waitresses spewing climate change dogma as if they were some sort of expert oracle that has even a partial clue as to what they’re talking about.
To: Libloather
You don’t have to be smart to be a flight attendant and I doubt that any of them have science degrees let alone even taken anything more tough than general science.

“surely it couldnt have to do with number of flights or where they go?”
Exactly.
Or the design of the aircrafts, or the speed at which they travel, or an ability to safely fly in turbulent weather due to technological advances, etc.

I do not follow your reasoning. To which statement are you ‘vigorously’ objecting, mine or that of the union president?
