What a douche bag Branson is. His Airline's jets fly all over the world dumping carbon particles. How does this “tackle this enormous challenge?” ‘Effin Hypocrite!”

“If Jobs had suffered from the most common form of pancreatic cancer, adenocarcinoma, the chances are he would have died soon after his 2003 diagnosis. But as Jobs later revealed, he had an unusual form of pancreatic cancer known as a neuroendocrine tumor or islet cell carcinoma.”

He at least has the courage of his convictions.

BUT he’s also putting his employees at risk!

He may die and take them with him for a stupid ideology........................

I would be more worried about what the highest elevation on the island is.

What if the winds AREN’T really that high? Weather data has been being cooked for decades. “Harvey” was horrendous only because meteorological conditions made it stall right over Houston for days. What an opportune time for the frauds and liars to claim the very next storm, “Irma” is even worse. The Fake News media will trumpet the lies, and the dweebs will bellieve it. After all we’ve seen, I’m not turning gullible now!

The wind speeds and central eye pressure is measured by the Air Force Hurricane Hunters flying into the storm, risking their lives to get the data.......................

Branson has stated that he was formerly a global warming sceptic and was influenced in his decision by a breakfast meeting with Al Gore.

Ya gotta admit - they’re pretty good at punking the liberals - the liberal lemmings think they actually care. He probably laughs all the way to the bank.

That’s my cousin Swayze going back through the Revolutionary War guy Karnes City, Karnes Co., TX was named for. And the cousins who Sam Houston sent out to scout for dinner but came back with Santa Ana during the Texas Revolution. It’s down between San Antonio and Corpus Christi and Rockport so bet Harvey got it, too.

I have no bone with the people you mentioned, who go out and get the data. My beef is with the liars that REPORT it.
If they ARE fudging, someone will discover it in about 2022.

Built atop the island, the main villa upper deck is 111 feet above mean sea level. Perhaps everything above the wine cellar will be blown away? Storm surge plus waves, with a fierce wind to push water further uphill may swamp the cellar. Hope he has bilge pumps or scuba gear!
