One of Greenpeace’s most senior executives commutes 250 miles to work by plane, despite the environmental group’s campaign to curb air travel, it has emerged.
Pascal Husting, Greenpeace International’s international programme director, said he began “commuting between Luxembourg and Amsterdam” when he took the job in 2012 and currently made the round trip about twice a month.
The flights, at 250 euros for a round trip, are funded by Greenpeace…
AIR between Luxembourg and A’dam?!?!? The train connections are excellent!
“Do as I say, not as I do.” The motto of the Left, and it has ever been thus.
He could probably get their faster by train, but that would be so, so . . . ordinary, so low class

So much for saving MOMMY Earth.
Again – when those who say it’s a crisis act like it’s a crisis, I’ll believe it’s a crisis.
He’s one of the enlightened. The rules have to be obeyed by the peasants not him.
The “Green” is only there to finance the “PEACE” activism.
AND, Amsterdam Central Station is right on the canal system with harbor access. The Airport is way out. This guy is stupid. But being a Greenpeace officer, that goes without saying.
He musta had a climate modeler check the railway schedules…
In the article, he claimed it was a 10 hour train ride…..
The reason why he doesn’t just relocate to Amsterdam instead of decamp from Luxembourg is income tax levied in the two cities. Luxembourg is a tax haven, and Amsterdam isn’t.
