Flight attendants know the real job killer isn’t the Green New Deal. It’s climate change.

**SNIP**

In my 23 years as a flight attendant and president of our union representing 50,000 others, I know firsthand the threat climate change poses to our safety and our jobs. But flight attendants and airline workers have been told by some pundits that the Green New Deal, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Ed Markey’s environmental proposal, will ground all air travel.

That’s absurd. It’s not the solutions to climate change that kills jobs. Climate change itself is the job killer.

Severe turbulence is becoming more frequent and intense due in part to climate change. Research indicates that rising CO2 levels in the atmosphere cause disruptions to the jet streams and create dangerous wind shears that greatly increase turbulence, especially at moderate latitudes where the majority of air travel occurs.

Science. I'm sticking to my 'cow farts did it' theory.

Somewhere I thought I saw, with respect to global warming / “climate change” that the pundits actually fessed up that this isn’t what used to be called science. Science meant using everything you knew to pinpoint a fact. We have some nebulous more-or-less-educated guesses here at best. No attempt to test hypotheses against better explanations.

Well sweetie, that’s why they don’t let you drive the plane

all right, trees. From now on, you all are not allowed to respirate carbon dioxide at night. It’s disrupting the wind. Figure it out and we’ll check back in 5 years. Thanks.

OMG - a flight attendant claims to be an expert on climate change. LOL

"That’s absurd."

The only part of the article I found believable.

I was asking a flight attendant the other day what she thought the best near light speed propulsion system for inter-solar system travel was.

I’m just a lay person though so I didn’t understand a word she said.

Total lunacy using individual cases of air turbulence as proof of global climate change. And that threatens air travel more than eliminating air travel? Insane enough to make me angry.

If you want to post Vox neo-Nazi propaganda, do us a favor and include that fact in your first post.

Like this: WARNING! what you’re about to read is propaganda crap. Believe nothing that follows.

It serves the purpose of warning readers that what you’re about to read is pure, unadulterated crap.

Piss on them. Hand out cokes and chip when you board, a video on how to Fasten a seatbelt and die with a floatation device, and have 1 armed person onboard to keep the peace. Don’t need them because flying sucks as is and they don’t do sh!t to make it better.

The inverse is also true.

Climate change is natural and not man-made. Its primarily caused by the Sun. And CO2 is an after-effect of rising temperatures, not the cause of it!

Having said that, jet planes do cause pollution at higher elevations. So the answer is to ground all planes! That'll serve flight attendants, throw them out of work.

The people earning their living riding the machines contributing to 'man made global warming' are complaining about 'man made global warming'.

They want everyone else to cut down on co2 so they can keep their livelihood.

Their guilt must be tearing them apart.

I’m trying to imagine if John Coleman, the founder of the weather channel, had this person as his flight attendant. He’s the one who doubted that climate change was a problem. She’d probably dump a drink on him and demand that her 50,000 minions refuse to let him go to the lav.
