It looks like things just went from bad to worse.
From a reader:
Today at noon, [a Minnesota television station] reported that approximately 300 private jets would be flying into Minneapolis today for the Final Four NCAA basketball championship (March Madness).Think about all the unnecessary CO2 emissions.
The MPLS airport only has room to park 162 aircraft so the others will be parked at nearby terminals, including St Paul, Flying Cloud, and perhaps Crystal airport.
And, no, the planes don't just magically appear at Crystal airport. They will drop off their four passengers, and then take off again for Crystal, and then later, return to the Minneapolis airport.
Who wants to bet the majority of those private jets are NetJets, owned by Warren Buffett?
And a reminder that these same folks are telling me to live with less, shrink my carbon footprint. It gets tedious.
And I bet the croissants / bagels at the airports cost $11 apiece.
One more reason I can't take the global warming scam seriously. Not the croissants. The fact that we are being told that we can't "afford" to fly any more if we want to save the world, and yet 300 planes carrying an average of four passengers each will be flying in (and out) for a college football tournament.
March Madness? This occurs like clockwork every year, and will continue for the next twelve years. Wanna bet?
The good news? It will continue to occur for the next 50 years. At least.
