   Steven Spielberg's Climate Change Hypocr

   Legendary filmmaker Steven Spielberg, who once revitalized the film   
   industry by giving birth to the summer tentpole blockbuster phenomenon,   
   has forever been an ardent climate change activist. However, like many   
   Left-wing cultural figures in America these days, that activism is running   
   headfirst into some dicey territory.   
      
   A New York Post article recently cited ABS-B Exchange flight tracking data   
   later compiled by Celebrity Jets, which added up all the trips the   
   director has taken on his private jet. In the space of just two months,   
   Spielberg’s Gulfstream G650 gobbled its way through $116,000 dollars worth   
   of fuel across 17,000 total miles.   
      
   Two particularly notorious private jet romps include:   
      
   • 3,589 miles from Westhampton NY to Amsterdam, Netherlands (June 29).   
   Total fuel cost = $21,183 / Total emissions = 32 tons of carbon dioxide.   
      
   • Amsterdam, Netherlands to Rotterdam, Netherlands, followed by a return   
   to Westhampton NY (July 1st). Total fuel cost = $24,685 / Total emissions   
   = 38 tons of carbon dioxide.   
      
   In total, Spielberg’s jet spewed out 179 tons of carbon dioxide within   
   just two months of traveling. For comparison, the average American’s   
   annual carbon footprint is 16 tons, and the average global footprint is 4   
   tons per person.   
      
   It’s not the first time Spielberg has raised eyebrows over the prolific   
   use of his trusty jet. The director was once chided for flying from   
   Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts, to Teterboro NJ, which took a scant 56   
   minutes.   
      
   Spielberg’s flippant hypocrisy is part of a broader narrative that has   
   permeated the entirety of Left-wing cultural and political circles, and   
   has been emulated by prominent figures such as so-called “climate czar”   
   John Kerry. Recently, the controversial Democrat had the hubris to claim   
   that flying was “the only choice for somebody like me who is traveling the   
   world to win this battle.”   
      
   This, in an age of Zoom and Google Meet.   
      
   Like Spielberg, Kerry also supposedly flew in a private jet to Martha’s   
   Vineyard – a popular getaway spot for corrupt Democratic Party elites – to   
   celebrate the overly maskless birthday party for Barack Obama during the   
   height of the Covid pandemic. The claim has been denied by Kerry’s spin   
   team, but it hasn’t done a lot to tack up his image.   
      
   In 2021 alone, Kerry took sixteen flights on his own private jet, many of   
   them within Massachusetts, the Boston International Airport, and New   
   Jersey. We’re sensing a pattern, here.   
      
   The recent revelation of Steven Spielberg’s hypocrisy comes to the   
   surprise of but a few at this point. Those proclaiming that America’s   
   cities would be underwater by the year 2000, or that humanity will be   
   wiped out in 12 years due to climate change are the same people who refuse   
   to curb their own luxurious excesses for the sake of “the cause.”   
      
   It’s long been theorized that Left-wing climate change alarmism is a   
   manufactured ploy designed to scare Americans into giving up rights and   
   freedoms, thereby granting larger, fatter and more corrupt governments the   
   ability to enslave the populace. Whether true or not, it’s obvious that   
   governments and Left-wing institutions around the globe, including the WHO   
   and the World Economic Forum, are cashing in.   
      
   Others, like Spielberg, may genuinely be concerned about the environment,   
   and have bought into the extremist, anti-science alarmism being peddled by   
   celebrity scientists like Neil deGrasse Tyson and Bill Nye. The director   
   has chimed in on his fear of climate change many times over the years,   
   including a 2018 interview to prop up his film Ready Player One.   
      
   “I’m terrified of [global warming],” he stated. “Global warming is a   
   scientific reality. It’s not a political trick. It’s a true piece of real,   
   measurable, quantifiable science.” Of course, Spielberg isn’t wrong. The   
   problem is that the data have been blown out of proportion and twisted for   
   the purposes of political opportunism.   
      
   Those crying foul may want to take a long, hard look at the U.N.’s   
   Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, which admitted in a recent   
   report that if America were to cut 100% of its emissions right this   
   instant, global temperatures would be affected by a paltry, measly 0.137   
   degree Celsius by the year 2100.   
      
   The debate is whether such a minuscule, infinitesimal drop in global   
   temperatures is worth destroying the world’s biggest economy, whilst   
   killing millions of people living in developing nations via the pursuit of   
   extreme-radical Left-wing climate change policies.   
      
   For years, the Left have stated their goal in direct, overt fashion – to   
   radically change systems of government and economics for the sake of   
   equity-based initiatives. In April of 2021, President Joe Biden claimed   
   that climate change was an “opportunity to create green jobs.”   
      
   None have since materialized.   
      
   However, this doesn’t answer the question as to why Steven Spielberg, John   
   Kerry, and other Leftist cultural and political figures still cling to   
   their private jets. Either they genuinely believe in the radicalism   
   they’re shouting about, and are ignorant of their own culpability, or they   
   don’t believe the rhetoric at all, and merely want to wag their fingers at   
   everyone else in narcissistic fashion.   
      
   Given the chaotic, fragmented and constantly-contradictory nature of   
   Leftist ideology, it’s hard to tell which one.

   Thank you for cleaning up the disaster of the 2008-2017 Obama / Biden   
   fiasco, President Trump.   
      
   Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the   
   The World According To Garp.  Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood   
   queer liberal democrat donors.   
      
   President Trump boosted the economy, reduced illegal invasions, appointed   
   dozens of judges and three SCOTUS justices.
