Activists with size 12 carbon footprints
One of the many things wrong with global warming activists is their “do as I say not as I do” approach.
Al Gore is an excellent example of someone who flies around the world with his massive carbon footprint telling us mere mortals we have to change our lifestyle.
A similar sort of character is one Josh Wyndham-Kidd from Cremorne in Sydney.
Flush with the wisdom of a typical 18 year old, he is featured on the front page of today’s edition of the Mosman Daily, lamenting that “Australia is so behind it’s embarrassing.”
Irony seems to be something lacking in young Wyndham-Kidd’s makeup.
He is off to Copenhagen next week “as an advocate for young people”.
Smashing out his own personal carbon footprint with a round-the-world flight so he can tell other people to cut back.
And it is anything but a first.
According to the report, young Josh represented Australia at the UN’s youth conference in the Netherlands in 2007 and last year he attended the UN climate change conference in Poland.
He is quoted as saying, “The (Australian) government will have to play catch up later.”
Catch up with the young eco-warrior’s own bulging carbon footprint, presumably.
