Harrison Ford, Climate Hypocrite

Harrison Ford is one of Hollywood’s most famous climate crusaders. He owns multiple extravagant homes, plus a reported 12 private planes, nine motorcycles and six gasoline-powered automobiles. His private plane collection includes two gas-guzzling corporate jets. Even though his opulent lifestyle depends upon copious amounts of fossil fuel energy, he speaks forcefully about his commitment to fight climate change.

...

His multiple real-estate holdings include a 14,000 sq. ft. megamansion in the heart of one of the most exclusive areas of Los Angeles. He also owns a magnificent Jackson Hole, Wyoming estate, the plans for which he sketched out in Paris while working on a film with fugitive child rapist, Roman Polanski. Unfortunately for the planet, his excessive use of fossil-fuel energy isn’t limited to when he’s on the ground -- he flies all over the world at the drop of a hat in CO2-spewing private jets.

An outspoken supporter of stratospheric carbon taxes that would prevent ordinary Americans from taking a commercial flight to go on a family vacation, this paragon of environmental virtue rewards himself by flying as often as he wants and for any purpose he wants, the planet be damned.

...

he boasted this:

Flying is like good music; it elevates the spirit and it’s an exhilarating freedom. I’m so passionate about flying I often fly up the coast for a cheeseburger.

...

The adults who have purposely terrified children around the world have bent over backwards to keep an inconvenient fact hidden from them. A senior UN climate official named Dr. Ottmar Edenhofer admitted the following during a Nov. 14, 2010 interview with Swiss newspaper Neue Zürcher Zeitung:

[UN] climate policy has almost nothing to do anymore with protecting the environment.

What a shame. I liked the guy.

[Karma_Sherab]

And, he wasn't needed at all in the first Indiana Jones movie.

The Big Bang Theory analyzed it, and determined that the outcome would have been exactly the same (dead Nazis when they opened the Ark), if he wouldn't have been in the movie at all....

[Gay State Conservative]

The left wants *others* to save the planet. That's a lot like their attitude toward taxes...they want *others* to pay taxes.

[Da Coyote]

I’m becoming convinced that your typical actor has way more than a 50% chance of being on the left side of the Bell Curve. (Heh, and yes, there be a bit of a double meaning there.)

[Vaquero]

I wonder if the millennium falcon pollutes much.

[Vaquero]

Saw that episode.

The purpose of the film was to watch the swashbuckling Dr Jones. The Nazi plot were secondary.

His reputation in Jackson is of a loud mouth drunk

Barbara Streisand started preaching about global warming about 20 years ago until some reporter published her huge electric bill for her Cali. estate.

Also reported she hated using public toilets so she was driven in an R.V. whenever she has out and about!

All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others”

Or something like that

[woodbutcher1963]

Me too, until the last few years.

I especially liked the story that he was working as a carpenter when he was discovered by Steven Spielberg.

".... [UN] climate policy has almost nothing to do anymore with protecting the environment...."

Only the fuzzy-headed Marxists and the ignorant sheeple believe climate change is about the planet, the environment or the climate. It is about none of these things and never has been.

It's always been about the Left's wet-dream of a socialist revolution. To destroy capitalism via the fossil fuels that drive it.

In its place, they want to run things with socialism/communism (the same things, just spelled differently), so they can control the population with big government.

Global warming and now its latest incantation, climate change, is a Marxist scam to pick our wallets and enrich the globalist elites and their power hungry obsession with dominating the populations of the world.

Idiots like Harrison Ford and other Hollywood liberals all back it because they want to be part of the "in" crowd, not because they actually believe in saving the planet.

Their latest effort in the US is this Green New Deal which would absolutely bring the US economy to a standstill and place the population at the mercy of big government.

They won't stop this movement until they finally get their way. Everybody will suffer because of their greed and desire for power.

The planet and the environment in the meantime will be dynamic as it always has been.

His private plane collection includes two gas-guzzling corporate jets.

And, one wrecked airplane!

[FLT-bird]

Real sacrifices are for you little people - certainly not for us politicians and Hollywood types.

[george76]

NASA :: so-called “man-made climate change” is a political narrative to impose economic control over the global population..

[cuban leaf]

Yeah. Apparently he kinda screwed the pooch when he screwed Carrie Fisher too, though.

[EEGator]

I heard he likes landing on the take off runway as well.

[chief lee runamok]

Just another self absorbed hypocritical cretin.
