Remember when all those politicians, actors, and activists went to that global climate change meeting on private planes?
Rich ppl will do nothing if it even inconveniences them a smidgen.
Most people won’t. But rich people especially won’t.
It’s an apartheid.
Their wealth can protect them from climate change, so they have no good reason to change their behavior.
You can’t eat money. They might live comfortably for longer but eventually they’ll be just as turbo fucked as we are.
Not soon enough, they won’t, unfortunately.
I would say I would boycott Starbucks, but that would imply they have a product I desire.
I’ve never been in a Starbucks.The thought of drinking coffee that isn’t does not appeal to me.
You could go into a Starbucks while it’s busy, and when it’s your turn to order go. “I want a … thing. One of those … cylindrical” Basically, try to waste as much of the workers time as possible, without actually ordering anything. An important thing is that there’s people waiting behind you, so that you waste their time as well.
Or just order water? It’s free for you, but costs the company money, while not making it difficult for the employees. Doing what you suggested is all around shitty for the workers who are just trying to get through their day and earn a wage, as well as the people in line wanting a drink. The company will not be affected in any way with your suggestion.
I’ve been boycotting the company for years now, even the items you can get in grocery stores (since at least some of them are made by Nestle, so double boycott points). Anytime anyone suggests we grab starbucks, I offer an alternative and we end up trying a local coffee shop or other non-terrible franchise.
I thought the employees get paid by the hour?
My take is that the super wealthy already know there’s no saving this mess, and they won’t survive much longer either, so they’re just squeezing the lemon for whatever juice is left before it all blows sky high.
This has been their mentality since late 70s
In Ministry for the Future, one of the major plot points partway through the book is that eco-terrorists (eco-partisans, really, considering the subject matter and general gist of the book) start blasting planes out of the sky. They hit a few civilian airliners, but the vast majority of their targets are private jets.
Do with that what you will.
how much carbon dioxide does this supercommute produce, expressed in cars/day?
edit: i guess it’s just cars
I want to know in paper straws per day.
How many bananas for miles travelled.
Now that is a punchable face.
how do they all do it? It’s like going over a certain threshold of wealth makes ones face take one some subtle traits that increase the desire of others to punch.
Starbucks just can’t stop shooting itself in the foot. Just when it had given some concessions to the union. Fuck Starbucks.
This CEO is getting paid $113 millions a year while their workers live on tips. I hope they face bigger boycotts and bigger losses
I bet every one of his corporate employees has to commute to work though. Hypocrites.
Jesus, if I remember correctly, usually travelled by donkey or by foot
If Jesus had access to it, he’d totally be a fixed gear bicycle cat zooming through the alleyways of Jerusalem.
BMX Jesus FTW
But would he take it off sweet jumps?
They do care about supporting genocide though
“Work”
Is anyone tracking the location of his jet?
I wonder… Who ever pretended that though?
