Saint Greta Thunberg - Greatest Climate Hypocrite of our time.
1) Travels across the Atlantic in a solar panel powered yacht, but causes two crew members to fly from Europe to pick up the yacht and two original crew members to fly back to Europe as well. Causing twice as much carbon footprint than flying alone.
2) Drives around America in an electric-powered Tesla that Arnold Schwarzenegger lent her that gets its electric power from, you guessed it, coal-powered electricity generating power plants.
3) Zealously travels around Europe in trains causing more carbon footprint than the average European would in order to lecture them about the carbon apocalypse to come.
4) Angry because of too much plastic in the world and claims her childhood was ruined while simultaneously filling her belly eating from plastic containers.
Saint Greta Thunberg - can leap over tall hypocrisies in a single bound. Can you think of any celebrities who could match her mighty climate contradictions?
The funny thing about this sort of attack is that had Greta been one of the millions of off-the-grid hippies out there, you never would have heard about her, and she wouldn't be able to make the impact that she's obviously making.
Also, "driving around in an electric car is bad for the environment" 😂😂🤣
@QuixoticSoul The team looked at the life-cycle impact of conventional and electric vehicles. In essence, they considered how the production, the use and the end-of-life dismantling of a car affects the environment, explained co-author Prof Anders Hammer Stromman. "The production phase of electric vehicles proved substantially more environmentally intensive," the report said, comparing it to how petrol and diesel cars are made. "The global warming potential from electric vehicle production is about twice that of conventional vehicles." In addition, producing batteries and electric motors requires a lot of toxic minerals such as nickel, copper and aluminium. Hence, the acidification impact is much greater than that of conventional car production. "Across the other impacts considered in the analysis including potential for effects related to acid rain, airborne particulate matter, smog, human toxicity, ecosystem toxicity and depletion of fossil fuel and mineral resources, electric vehicles consistently perform worse or on par with modern internal combustion engine vehicles, despite virtually zero direct emissions during operation," according to Prof Stromman.
