All these rich elitist fellow travelers are on on the take and ironically, the worst abusers of their so-called religion.
National Geographic Says Climate Change Is ‘Greatest Threat to Human Health.’ It Also Flies Billionaires Around the World on Its Private Jet.
Media conglomerate offers six-figure ‘private jet trips’ to reach ‘far-flung destinations’ and encounter ‘legendary wildlife’
By: Washington Free Beacon, June 12, 2023:
Story continues below advertisementNational Geographic says climate change is “the greatest threat to human health,” but it’s not so grave that it prevents them from jetting the elite to what the magazine describes as some of the world’s “far-flung destinations” on a massive private jet.
National Geographic raises funds by flying deep-pocketed travelers around the world on its “specially outfitted” Boeing 757 jet, which features “comfortable VIP-style leather seating,” “plush, sleek interior design,” a private chef, and a “dedicated luggage handler.” The trips, most of which cost roughly $100,000, allow millionaires and billionaires to “fly in exceptional comfort” as they visit “far-flung destinations” and encounter “legendary wildlife”—including the same coral reefs National Geographic says in its pages are dying.
Travelers on one of the 24-day “expeditions” fly nearly 30,000 miles. Planes, on average, produce 53.3 pounds of carbon dioxide per air mile, meaning the trip’s flights would emit more than 1.5 million pounds of carbon dioxide. The average American’s yearly carbon footprint is just 32,000 pounds, meaning the flights in just 24 days generate a carbon footprint equivalent to that of nearly 47 Americans in an entire year.
One of the trips, a $108,000 “Wildlife of the World by Private Jet” tour, takes wealthy attendees to see elephants in Malaysia, mountain gorillas in Rwanda, Bengal tigers in India, and “dazzling marine life” from an “overwater bungalow in the Maldives” before wrapping up in Rome.
National Geographic often laments the “climate change crisis,” which, it says, is causing melting icebergs, coral reef extinction, deadly floods, forest fires, and a rise in mosquito-borne diseases. The media giant argued in September that climate change is “the greatest threat to human health in recorded history.” National Geographic even identifies transportation as one of the largest sources of carbon emissions—which it says are warming the earth “as a byproduct of human activities”—and tells readers they should measure their carbon footprint and spend time “thinking about” how much they fly.
National Geographic is far from the only prominent organization or individual that sounds the alarm about the “climate crisis” while enjoying the luxuries of private air travel. Liberal billionaire Bill Gates, a top National Geographic Society donor, just months ago defended his private jet travel, saying he is not a “hypocrite” because he pays for carbon offsets, a controversial practice in which you spend money to counteract your own actions, such as by funding solar panels to replace fossil fuel use elsewhere. Doing so, of course, does not actually remove the original carbon from the air, and environmental groups have criticized the concept. National Geographic itself asked if “carbon offsetting really make[s] a difference” in a February piece.
Another National Geographic Society donor, world-famous actor Leonardo DiCaprio, has taken gas-guzzling private jets to accept environmental awards. Biden climate czar John Kerry, meanwhile, has addressed the fight against climate change at National Geographic events—Kerry until recently owned a private jet, saying in 2019 that private air travel is “the only choice for somebody like me.”
National Geographic did not return a request for comment. Beyond its “Wildlife of the World by Private Jet” tour, the media giant offers similar “Around the World by Private Jet” tours that cost roughly $100,000 and allow attendees to “circumnavigate the Northern Hemisphere by private jet,” “meet with Mongolia’s nomads, Arctic farmers in Svalbard and villagers in the Faroe Islands,” and explore “savanna wildlife on the Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya.” Other trips include “Central and South America by Private Jet,” “Cultural Wonders of Africa: A Journey by Private Jet,” and “The Future of Everything: Exploring Global Innovation by Private Jet.” Seventy-three American billionaires reportedly joined a National Geographic private jet trip to Nepal, which cost $95,000 per person

National Geographic was the Playboy magazine of the native tribes around the world. There is nothing that National Geographic contributes anymore except Politic Correctness.

I travel a lot to different places and different environments. I am very aware of my surroundings and see absolutely no changes anywhere. Life continues on in the same way as it always has.
The sun shines, birds sing, bees fly around flowers for pollen, the trees turn green, the wind blows and the waves crash.
Empirical daily evidence that life continues and the planet certainly needs no saving. In fact, the planet will be here spinning through space long after mankind has wiped itself out with some manufactured virus. Look around you and ask yourself where’s the crisis? What’s different?
Don’t worry about the planet; enjoy your life for the short time you are here; drink it all in and stop worrying; tune out the devious Leftist lies and deceptions.

Correct. The planet doesn’t care how much carbon is in the atmosphere. Plants will consume it and flourish. The only threat to humanity is humanity itself (i.e., the greedy NWO totalitarians).
Your comments remind me of this song from “My Fair Lady”….in essence tell the Leftist Climate bullies we will survive disregarding your Climate hysteria….

Oh Yes, these things don’t occur in nature! LOL I mean everyone knows the Glaciers melted due to the heavy carbon emissions from Fred and Wilma Flintstone. Forget the Malinkovich effect, Laschamps excursion and such! LOL

I think the comparison of fraudulent Climatism to a religion obscures that it’s actually Communistic sabotage to disable a free capitalistic societies, nonetheless the denial of hypocrisy by the Globalist Communist elites because they pay for “carbon offsets” is amusing and sort of reminds me of when the Catholic Church used to sell forgiveness of sins (Indulgences).

NG used to be a stellar magazine. Over the last 30 years, it has turned into a leftist rag filled with garbage and filth.
