2030 – A Goal To Be Missed
Are we talking football, are we talking about personal achievements, or are we talking about shambolic climate targets?
Air New Zealand, a carrier, has had to abandon its 2030 goal to cut its carbon emissions.
The company is claiming it is finding it difficult to obtain efficient planes and a sustainable fuel supply, jet fuel that is. This is the first airline to come out and announce this, but will it be the last?
They say they are still committed to try and achieve a goal of net zero emissions by 2050, a quarter of a century into the future; by which time, all of this should we say mumbo-jumbo, no pun intended, will be largely forgotten because of other events taking centre stage.
It is claimed that the aviation industry is estimated to produce roughly 2% of global carbon dioxide emissions. Just 2%, that is what they would have you believe.
How much fuel is spent by a large airline on a 2000 or 4000 kilometre flight? Just one jet of how many?
How many flights are there a day, a week, a month, a year? And they say that they are only producing, or giving off, a mere 2% of global carbon dioxide emissions.
Is this thought provoking? Is it thought manipulating? Talk about not wanting people to be put off flying; because let’s face it, everything that they do today is a guilt trip.
What have they talked you into? What have they persuaded you to accept?
Is the moon made of green cheese? Is the Earth flat? And because of their actions, millions of people did not die from contracting what they called Covid-19.
People are free to believe as they will, but when airlines begin to come out and say that they will not be able to meet the 2030 targets, and car manufacturers are having to do similar, what are governments’ pledges worth? What can we believe of what they tell us?
The Earth is changing if you believe history, it has been for millions of years; why is now any different? Could it be quite simply, that there is money to be made?
How will 8 billion people really affect a planet, any more than the sun; the sun’s rays, electromagnetic waves, or solar flares?
Someone somewhere is dreaming up a new way to cause you to give up something.
What do you think it is, that they need you to give up?
