One of the hottest spots during the just-concluded Global Climate Action Summit was the private runway at San Francisco International Airport, where SFO spokesman Doug Yakel reports corporate jet traffic was up 30 percent over normal.
Airport sources told us that the carbon-spewing corporate jets nearly filled the landing area’s parking slots and that many had flown in for the conference.
The three-day climate confab drew more than 4,000 elected officials, business executives, and environmentalists from around the globe and was aimed at addressing how to lower the carbon emissions responsible for global warming.
The summit was organized by Gov. Jerry Brown, who has been known to fly private.
In 2015, Brown flew with real estate mega-millionaire and major Democratic Party donor George Marcus via private jet to a climate change conference at the Vatican.
The next year, the go-green governor jetted off with Marcus for a two-week trip that included stops in Italy, Bulgaria, Romania, and Ukraine.

You do know that these green lunatics are fertilizing the planet with their co2 producing jets. We should be thankful if it wasn’t for the lies they tell.
Let’s examine the agenda items behind the anthropological climate change movement. It started as a means to create new taxes and expand the power of government. Carbon dioxide emitting jets don’t interfere with these objectives. Another motivation was forcing de-industrialization. The jet’s exhaust also doesn’t interfere with that goal. The same can be said of agenda items that have since joined the climate change movement, such as transferring the wealth of the industrial nations to the developing nations. If one understands what drives this movement, use of these jets is not a conflicted with the goals.
