Why are Global warming protesters such hypocrites?

The protesters held a rally in New York and left SEVEN AND A HALF TONS of garbage behind, lots of it non-recyclable plastic.

Why such hypocrisy? Do they even REALIZE what they are doing? the INFRASTRUCTURE needed to even allow them to protest????

1. Transport to protest site (extra fuel consumption and running extra transport for the added work load)

2. Added energy consumption from people staying at hotels.

3. INCREDIBLE waste of food, not to mention energy consumed to make them the food they throw away.

4. and how about extra strain on the sewer system??? all that extra WASTE MANAGEMENT, because they are so full of it.

I would think the BEST way to PROTEST against 'global warming' is to STOP CONSUMING. don't make that trip to the city. don't buy fast food.

I doubt if it even comes across their minds, they just blindly roll along chanting their Al Gore high priest mantras, and feel justified in their cause when they take that energy consuming jet home. or drive their SUV.

    AL GORE is not a typical American. he is a looney-tunes nutcase with an inferiority complex. He lost the election, had a fit, and stormed off to start his own global warming RELIGION.

    I am still trying to figure out how our run-away pollution triggered global warming on MARS. does our pollution reach that far in to space? since we started studying Mars, its polar ice caps are receding.

    MAYBE it has something to do with the SUN.

    This planet went through all kinds of global warming and cooling before we had any kind of industrial age. bottom line is it is FEAR MONGERING. Al Gore working that money cow, and feeding off his own power.

    I am all for being 'good stewards' of the Earth, but face it, EVERYTHING we use revolves around OIL, not just driving cars. THERE IS NO 'quick fix', other than wiping out the human race. then all the abandoned factories will degrade and pollute the place after we are gone.

    We can 're-tool' some things, but all the global warming cultists running down the street chanting doesn't help anything. hey just cause MORE global warming with all the expenditure of resources.

    Yeah i have to say, Al Gore getting out of an SUV was a tad off-putting and i very much agree with the anti-climate change sentiment. Most of these celebrities are full of it, I'd rather it was headed by genuine activists and scientists, this just sullys the whole message.

    because the people seen demonstrating in public are trying to bring the attention of people (including specific groups and individuals in other communities) with co-ordinated efforst to make global warming a top trend style gesture in a specific related time frame. the individuals concerned do not necessarily utilise all the options you mention as energy consuming or believ in other issues such as environmental cleanliness and hygiene or responsibilities.

    Every large gathering leaves trash behind. After the 'loaves and fishes' incident it took a week to clean up the mess.

    They have to protest about something. They will travel for miles to get to a demo any demo will do, NY today somewhere else tomorrow its a way of life for them. Global warming/climate change is a lie, a fraud, a tool of government to increase your taxes and restrict your freedoms.
