Sarah Nelson, President of the Association of Flight Attendants, is not concerned enough to stop her own high flying ways, but, she does seem adamant about putting all her Comrades out of a job
Flight Attendants President says ‘We Know Climate Change Is a Huge Threat’
Sara Nelson, who will open the first panel at the LNS Labor Convergence on Climate in June, is international president of the Association of Flight Attendants representing 50,000 workers across 20 airlines. In a recent article for Vox, Nelson writes that flight attendants and airline workers have been told by some pundits that the Green New Deal, will ground all air travel. But Nelson says, “That’s absurd. It’s not the solutions to climate change that kills jobs. Climate change itself is the job killer.â€
“Extreme turbulence†she writes “is on the rise around the world. It isn’t just nauseating or scary — it’s dangerous.†Severe turbulence is becoming more frequent and intense “due in part to climate change.†For flight attendants, “these incidents pose a serious occupational risk.†And as extreme weather events become more common, more and more flights never take off at all. When the polar vortex plunged most of the US into a deep freeze in January, airlines canceled more than 2,000 flights. Heatwaves, thunderstorms, and other effects of climate change similarly make it impossible for airplanes to fly. “Grounded flights mean lost pay for flight attendants, who earn an hourly wage while we’re in the air.â€
Nelson says, “Our federal government must spearhead a national mobilization that brings these efforts together, harnesses American ingenuity, creates millions of well-paying union jobs, and saves the planet for our children. That is the vision of the Green New Deal resolution. It’s the moonshot of our time.”
When is she giving up her own fossil fueled flights world killing ways?
So now Sarah Nelson, President of the Association of Flight Attendants has also become an expert climate scientist along with Algore and Mustaffah Obama. Why can’t leftists just do their jobs and keep their stupid opinions for the internet?
Makes sense to me since the left wants to get rid of airplanes. No more flight attendant jobs, no more airplane mechanic jobs, no more airports, no more airlines. But thats okay you get a sweet government job or a guaranteeded minimum wage income for doing nothing. Even their own Unions whom they professed to cherish are opposed to the democratic party now.
What I find funny is that AOC and the SQUAD are literally running the house right now BUT for some reason the left thinks if they just put a moderate in the White House he WONT do anything HIS BASE WANTS and will be moderate instead of mostly far left.
Yeah. The left is as one of the democratic contenders said on change fed exing the election to Trump. Oh by the way. NO MORE FED EX AND UPS and a dozen other overnight services who rely on aircraft to get the job done. Untold more high paying jobs. GONE.
All to save a few molecules while the rest of the world does practically nothing. Yeah there will be more and more of these popping up in the coming months as the left wants to eliminate their lively hood.
Are you sure that Democrats want to eliminate airlines, airports, flight attendants, mechanics, pilots, FEDEX, UPS etc?
Big claims require evidence.
Don’t you just love it when the voices in his head go all schizo?
There’s a 97% consensus that in order to eliminate emissions planes gotta go.
well since they want to eliminate airplanes.
6 C meeting 100 percent of the power demand in the United States by clean, renewable and zero emission energy sources including
H overhauling transportation systems in the United States to eliminate pollution and greenhouse gas emissions from the transportation sector….
I ZERO EMISSION VEHICLE infrastructure and manufacturing.
I can sleep better now!
