Where did I say that?
Was the yacht manufactured for her trip or had it already been manufactured?
Yet we constantly see posts like yours caterwauling about the footprint to build a boat. Or the carbon cost to fly in an airplane.
It’s a silly point.
For a guy who is a moral philosopher, I found his retort to be intellectually lazy, strawman laden and mean spirited.
It wasn’t an open letter meant to respond to Greta personally, but an obvious cheerleading of the section of people in the world who reject, for whatever reason, the scientific assessment of climate change.

If you drive a car when you could walk or cycle, you probably shouldn’t preach that there’s a climate crisis? Don’t you agree? But if you need to take your car to get from A to B to C to D, and there’s no viable significantly more efficient means to do so, you could be excused. Don’t you agree?
i didnt say you did
i asked the question
No. I don’t agree. Time, weather, health and a whole host of factors are involved which you don’t care about in your desire to demonize.

What a contribution to climate science!
That letter was spot on. Now I hope Greta can read?

Ok. So you agree the vast, vast majority of climate advocates are not hypocrites.
Cool.
HOW DARE YOU!

Obviously the truth it would be me nice (as they would say) to admit that this is the region their climate crusade needs to start instead of the constant lecture to the west. The west is at least trying these other countries are firing up 100’s of new coal plants a year while flying two middle fingers at them.
Why should climate activists start with the largest aggregate polluters?
There is nothing wrong with westerners taking responsibility for their per capita emissions/waste first.
Seems like evironmental activists have been effective so far in moving western policy. Why should they not continue? Has the west done enough? If so, by what measure?
