So here's the story. I'm sure we've all seen it. What should the airline have done? Made an announcement "We're sorry, we can't fly you out there because it will hurt the environment too much"?
Airlines are in the business to transport people, not save the planet. The group that takes it upon themselves to save the planet are the environmentalists. And how do the environmentalists save the planet? They complain to the airlines. Does this sound right?
I know smart environmentalists that would smile at this situation. Do you know why? Because they see opportunity, they see job security, they are working towards solutions to solve pollution and fuel consumption problems. These situations will keep them employed and keep their skills at work. They are the ones who are going to change things, not these whiners.
Anyone else agree? State whether you're environmentalist or not.
