"We must end the era of cheap flights." - Bruno Le Maire, the French finance minister.<br><br>"The ecology Routinely kills 1000 honey bee colonies for one honey harvest. This is unsustainable and it must end. But it doesn't because there are millions of these bees and only a handful of people complaining about it. However, the aviation industry, which is responsible for 5% of the CO2 emissions, must be dismantled because there is a vocal minority of activists that want it to happen." - a phrase I made up but it makes sense.<br><br>Make no mistake, this is what is going to happen. The governments of these countries are very much on the side of the Greens Party and listen to their insane ramblings about honey bees. You guys have seen the trailer for the upcoming documentary about bees, do you really think they're going to take a backseat and let science and nature run its course? These are the people that think they can control the weather, reason with them!<br><br>No seriously though. Suicide amongst bees is a major problem and the Greens are right to bring it up. But they're not right in this case. The best option is to wait it out, the bees are resilient animals, they can sort themselves out. The aviation industry doesn't need to be dismantled, and they can't control the weather. Nobody can. It's a complex system of atmospheric and geographical factors that can't be influenced by one country, or one party.<br><br>The Greens don't understand that and they don't care if the cost of living for the average person goes up. They don't give a shit that other countries like the US, China, and Russia aren't doing anything to mitigate their emissions. They don't care that that the climate is always changing and that the scientifically agreed upon fact is that man can't change the weather, and that the best course of action would be to adapt to the change and not try and control it. They just want to destroy the aviation and the automotive industry, and the governments of these countries are stupid enough to listen to them.<br><br>Climate change is important. Yes, it's changing, and yes, it's changing faster than it normally does due to emissions, deforestation, and other human activities. But to try and control the weather and mitigate the effects of emissions is not only futile, it's detrimental. The new electric cars are made with cobalt which is toxic to the environment, and the battery can't be recycled. Wind farms are killing birds of prey at an alarming rate. Solar farms are being placed in areas that are prone to bush fires. The Greens want to take away our right to fly, to drive, to live comfortably, and to work without being accosted by climate activists.<br><br>Reading this post you might see me as someone that doesn't give a shit about the climate, but I do. I just want the science to be listened to, and the activists to shut the fuck up, because they are the ones that are impeding progress and influencing the governments to make shitty decisions that will make our lives harder.<br><br>So yeah, if you were planning on traveling to Germany or France, I would cancel your plans. Their governments are stupid, and they are going to make your life harder.
