Tree hugging hypocrites

Jolly green giant hypocrites: Tree huggers leave the biggest carbon footprint
I'm not the only one who comes down hard on the tree-hugging hypocrites of the silly "green" movement. According to research published in the UK's left-leaning Guardian newspaper, the "greenies" who are most likely to recycle their garbage, start compost heaps in their yard, and go to great lengths to make their homes more energy efficient are THE SAME people who are most likely to take frequent, long-haul flights abroad.

Oh, and just in case you need me to spell it out for you, those long trips by jet airplanes spew many times the amount of carbon emissions into the atmosphere than the feeble home-made "greening" efforts could ever hope to off-set.

Stuart Barr, the leader of this hilarious research out of Exeter University concluded that, "Green living is largely something of a myth. There is a middle class environmentalism where being green is part of the desired image. But another part of the desired image is to fly off skiing twice a year."

Some of these "do as I say, not as I do" hypocrites even said they DESERVED to fly as much as they want as a – get this – reward for their planet-conscious behavior!

These people are parodies of themselves. I have no intention of taking political, social, or ethical direction from hypocrites such as these — and neither should you.


Welcome to 2012 all you tree huggers LOL
