The United Nations has confirmed around 25,000 people will fly to Madrid, Spain, next month for 11 days to attend the world’s annual climate conference, called COP25.
The conference’s move from its original Santiago, Chile, home to Europe mirrors a global spike in private jet sales and calls by the globalist elites grow for commercial air passengers to stem their thirst for travel and stay at home, as will be discussed at Cop25.
Just look at the numbers.
Private jet lovers will fork out a combined $248 billion over the next ten years, buying 7,600 private planes according to a report quoted in the Guardian. The users span private, corporate, and government clients including the United Nations.
Gaetan Handfield, senior manager of marketing analysis at Honeywell Aerospace and author of the report, confirmed the rise. He said: “It is the introduction of many new aircraft models at the same time, with new clean streamline designs, that is driving demand for new private jets.
“People like to have the newest and best jets.”
Handfield said new jets by Bombardier, Gulfstream and Cessna are proving especially popular because of their longer range.

The little people should live in caves, eat turnips and ride in donkey carts. Lear jets are for the important people, like Leonardo.
They should be allowed to do with their money as they wish. Those that preach against jets should be called out loudly.
How’s Greta going to get home?
See the number of planes live here. It would be interesting if someone could take this flight data and monitor all the celeb and politicians flights and post it for the world to see.

From January 2019

Leo DiCrapio says climate change is real, gotta stop flying..meanwhile, he flies around in his private jet..because hey he’s special
She can borrow Hillary’s broomstick
The new private jets are expected to be bought by multinational companies and the super-rich over the next decade, each of which will burn 40 times as much carbon per passenger as regular commercial flights...
And the beat goes on...
They added without a hint of irony that critics “will not silence us” and they will not stop flying around the planet...
Or pontificating, apparently. The toxically obnoxious Greta is stuck in the home of the brave and the land of the (carbon) free trying to thumb a ride to her big moment in the spotlights in Spain with all the high rollers, under the assumption that hey, they're going anyway so it's sort of carbon neutral, right? Don't worry, dear, AOC will build you a train.
Why must be the rich be such arrogant hypocritical jerks?
This is a mystery of life.
Sure, you can and probably will get caught at it, but if you're already IN a nation with no extradition agreement with the USA ......
In the wheel well of a 747. Hold on tight as you make your approach!
I read 1500 private jets flew participants into Switzerland for the last Davos conference on climate.
Regarding title of referenced article, somebody please translate english to english for me.
Are private jet owners possibly selling their jets to each other in the name of politically correct carbon optics?
After all, you sell somebody your “evil,” carbon-producing private jet expecting that they are going to use it to keep making carbon.
What am I overlooking?
Do as I say, not as I do.
25,000 people? The UN really knows how to throw a party! They’ll probably have to fly in hookers.
It reminds me of my grocery shopping experience these lasts few years. This whole climate change gambit is to get the little people to pay more and get less. Mainly paying, not so much getting.
Good thing my beer is on sale this week so I will donate the $1.29 I saved towards the purchase of a used rowboat for her. And she is lucky I am feeling generous.
How’s Greta going to get home?
Greta The Troll wants a Carbon Free ride to the new summit ,LOL
Because they can, until things reach a pitch and the mobs come for them. Smart rich people know to keep their wealth and hypocritical opinions hidden.
If they canceled the conference, they'd fix the problem.
