For those of you that don't know what the hell that is....

The firm said that "flight shaming," which it defines as "the inherent guilt that an individual feels as a result of one's aviation-related carbon footprint"

Sweet Jesus what a bunch of puzzies

https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/com...-airlines-billions/ar-AAJhv1x?li=BBnbfcL

"We hypothesize that some airlines will 'reward' customers who choose to offset their carbon footprint by granting them a green seat on an aircraft. Meanwhile, customers who do not offset will be allocated a red one and placed into a state of 'shame,'"

Between Sunday and Thursday this week I had meetings in Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Dubai, and Abu Dhabi. Would have been pretty hard to do it by camel...…….no shame here.

Lighter cargo loads require less fuel. The airlines should require that each liberal passenger show proof of having lost 10% of their body weight in the last year or they pay a weight premium.

Okay, I'm confused.

If you're flying, how do you leave a footprint...?

Well those pinhead hypocrite democratic candidates aren't feeling any guilt, apparently. They're flying all over the place in private jets for their campaigns.

Rehabilitation is way overrated.

Don't worry, in 10 years AOC and her bunch of "Climate Warriors" will have us flying on wind and solar powered planes and going to Hawaii on trains.
