This is rather the norm for climate crisis (scam) conference, but, rarely does this make the news
Billionaires descend on Sun Valley in private jets to talk about climate change
A cabal of some of the most high-profile people in media, finance, and technology descended on Idaho’s resort town of Sun Valley in private jets this week to tackle, among other things, climate change.
On Tuesday, the day the conference kicked off, traffic from private jets got to be so busy that the Federal Aviation Administration temporarily banned planes on the West Coast from taking off.
The FAA told Fox News it briefly held planes on the ground at their departure airports to avoid congestion in the airspace around Sun Valley.
The manager of the Friedman Memorial Airport in the neighboring town of Hailey, Idaho told NPR ahead of the conference he expected more than 90 private planes.
A session preaching the perils of climate change to people who flew to the event on their own carbon-emitting Gulfstream jets rankled some business leaders that Fox Business contacted earlier in the week.
“Talking climate change on his private jet?” one CEO remarked with a laugh, referring to Gates.

So many billionaires in private jets flew to Sun Valley to hear @BillGates rave about climate that the FAA had to stop temporarily shutdown Western air space to other air traffic.

This is a gathering of uber-millionaires and billionaires, including Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, and the aforementioned Bill Gates. Who’ll surely take long fossil fueled private jet flights to the next UN IPCC Conference on the Parties in Scotland this fall, just like usual. What are any of them doing in their own lives to reduce their own carbon footprints? They could have done this on a Zoom call.
The USA average for commercial jets is about 50 mpg per seat
.ost jets get about 5mpg but of course carry multiple people
Yes, but don’t forget that the Earth continues to warm from CO2 released from us all burning fossil fuels.
And don’t forget warming is irrelevant-it would be the alleged effect of the warming. Most alarmists like J stop at “it’s warming!â€
And don’t forget J still can’t mention a simple experiment that’s been done to prove the agw theory-showing CO2 back radiation warming an object. It’s simple physics, they tell us…
