Hypocritical UK universities take hundreds of thousands flights a year
Hypocritical top UK universities take hundreds of thousands flights a year Whilst demanding you and I are grounded, another dose of hypocrisy from the screaming left wing control obsessed universities, “do as I order, not as I do” elitist attitude.
Britain’s top universities have spent tens of millions of pounds on hundreds of thousands of flights over the last four years, it can be revealed today – despite repeated pledges to tackle the left wing proclaimed climate crisis.
Almost 170,000 plane journeys – including long-haul, continental and domestic trips – were taken by staff at just eight institutions including Cambridge, Bristol and Newcastle universities, The Independent reported.
Imperial College London alone racked up 38,000 flights in the period between 2016 and 2020, the equivalent of 26 every single day of the year.
‘Aviation is one of the single biggest causes of global pollution and a key factor in climate change” is the favourite left wing chant.
Among the biggest polluters were Newcastle University which accrued 34,551 flights and the University of Cambridge with 22,277. Southampton University racked up 23,613, University College London some 21,138, and Bristol University another 13,969.
Thousands of the flights went to New York, while other exotic destinations included Bangkok, Nairobi and Beijing, as well as pretty much every European capital. Hundreds of domestic hops to cities connected by rail, but flights chosen instead – including between London, Bristol, Manchester and Edinburgh – are also among the list.
In a joint statement released last December, the group said it was committing to finding solutions to global warming through “research, teaching and more sustainable practices”.
There was, it said, “no avoiding this problem and there is no time to waste”.
The shear scale of the hypocrisy of these left wing universities and left wing activists like thunberg is nauseating
