One of Greenpeace’s most senior executives commutes 250 miles to work by plane, despite the environmental group’s campaign to curb air travel, it has emerged.

Pascal Husting, Greenpeace International’s international programme director, said he began "commuting between Luxembourg and Amsterdam" when he took the job in 2012...

The flights, at 250 euros for a round trip, are funded by Greenpeace, despite its campaign to curb "the growth in aviation", which it says "is ruining our chances of stopping dangerous climate change”.

Isn't life fine, when your a member of the privileged environmental-socialist nobility.

The entire green movement from save the whales, PETA, to globull warming is nothing but a ruse to further a socialist agenda. They nicely package their propaganda to lure the masses.

I’d call him a typical “rules for thee but not for me” limousine liberal, but the old liberals just drove around in limousines.

Didn’t the Left go nuts when Governor Schwarzenegger flew his own jet back and forth to work each day?

I think it’s obvious that saving the whales and keeping a low carbon footprint is for the proletariat. Our elite masters live by other rules. Notice Al Gore and his huge houses and yachts that burn gallons per hour.

The draconian laws they propose are for the peasants, not the ruling class.

He is an elite. It is his right, as a ruler over you commoners, to do this. Shut your mouth and pay your tax.

Realizing that 2053 nuclear explosions have occurred on earth between 1945 and 1998, and that we are all still here, makes worrying about “man-made global warming” seem kinda silly.
