A squadron of 1,700 private jets are rumbling into Davos, Switzerland, this week to discuss global warming and other issues as the annual World Economic Forum gets underway.
The influx of private jets is so great, the Swiss Armed Forces has been forced to open up a military air base for the first time ever to absorb all the super rich flying their private jets into the event, reports Newsweek.
“Decision-makers meeting in Davos must focus on ways to reduce climate risk while building more efficient, cleaner, and lower-carbon economies,” former Mexican president Felipe Calderon told USA Today.
Davos, which has become a playground of sorts for the global elite, is expected to feature at least 40 heads of state and 2,500 top business executives. Former Vice President-turned-carbon billionaire Al Gore and rapper Pharrell Williams will be there as well; each plans to discuss global warming and recycling respectively.
Another big theme of the mega-rich confab will be combating “income inequality” and how the world’s rich can pay their fair share to reduce the gap between top earners and the lower class. Admission price for Davos: roughly $40,000 a ticket.

Dang. That’s a lot of clowns gathered in one place.
pure hypocrites
Hypocrisy at its best.
Telling the riff-raff how to live is very serious business.
The Swiss need a better air defense system
Words fail me. I guess they’re figuring out how to kill the world population to solve global warming but leave just enough peasants alive to work as servants for them...
If they really want to reduce carbon emissions shut down Davos. Shut it down.
Shut up you peons, it is not for you to know the exalted thoughts of the rich elite. Just do what we say even if it does not make sense. You are our slaves.
The rich elites from all over the world and the politicians of the major political parties they buy and use are all getting together for their annual shindig.
We truly live in an insane world. Send in some ISIS head-choppers.
I remember when the guys from “Southpark” said they went to an industry conference, in Aspen, I think. They found out that they were the only two people who flew there via commercial airline.
global warming is a hoax and another way to advance socialism
government/socialism is a great evil and it is unaccountable.
The government gives U.S. professors $400,000 grants to study global warming . These scam artist “scientists” never worked a day in their lives (not a real job anyway just writing BS grant proposals and bs reports ).
The other dirty little secret about private jets is that you can fly your personal security goons armed with guns and whatever weapons of choice they like to carry. Nobody to find your weed in your bags either.
Re-defining our world to keep the disease of radical liberalism alive. Total insanity to keep the scam alive.
LOL
Elitist twits who know nothing of the real world.
The stunning sights of the Swiss Alps! No wonder its a winter playground for the global jet set.
We see now the 3000 people who are really running the world.
The rest are just slaves of the elite
