[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She and Harry are typical virtue signaling leftists.  It’s frankly disgusting how they claim to be advocates for the environment given their lifestyle - they are literally lecturing to people who have much smaller carbon footprints. The carbon credit thing is complete bullshit - it’s like taking a shit in a public pool and then absolving your own guilt by  paying poor people not to shit in that same pool.

I love Harry’s ex Cressida Bonas who understands that if you truly want to help the poor - you support their efforts to support themselves (watch Poverty Inc). She would have made a much better princess - too bad she didn’t want that life.

That said - her father shouldn’t be trashing her. [/quote]

Puh-lease.  Just because you advocate for smaller carbon footprints and environmental causes doesn't mean you can't ever do anything that is extravagant.  It's about choices.  I'm a diabetic and have to maintain a healthy lifestyle.  That doesn't mean I can't ever have a Bloomin Onion from Outback or a fruity alcoholic drink. [/quote]

You've missed the flight-shaming movement in Europe against flying? It hasn't taken off here yet. But it will.  Turns out, it's better for the environment for 100 people to drive than for them to take one plane flight.  Who knew? (We knew, we just didn't care )[/quote]

When we were in Europe recently, we took trains because we wanted to see the countryside and the cities we visited are close together.  The trains were packed with business travelers and vacationers who say they are trying not to fly except for very long distances. The trains are very nice -- every in poor countries like the Czech Republic -- and encourage ground travel.  It is much more enjoyable to take a train, too.  The problem with the States is its size.  I am not sure we will ever be able to do this type of travel efficiently,.  [/quote]

Europe has good trains but the flight-shaming is a very recent trend.  The US has lots of train tracks for freight.  We could increase the use of passenger trains easily and could build out our infrastructure more, if we had the will.  And in the next couple decades, I wouldn't be surprised if it happens.  We're slowly beginning to contemplate changing our cities.  Changing our method of long-distance travel is a much easier fix, next to that.  [/quote]
