Lufthansa
and Climate Change
Below are extracts of letters between
the
airline company Lufthansa and Peter Shullot about climate change. The letters in full are at the bottom of the page.
This is one of 65 sets of letters so you can find out what your supermarket,
energy supplier and car manufacturer, and oil companies, airlines, house
builders and other companies really think about climate change. The name
Peter Shullot is made up – it is an anagram of The Polluters.
To
Dieter Grotepass, General
Manager of Lufthansa UK –
Frankfurt
airport is my home. Of course my real home is the one above – not Heathrow
airport but 483 Green Lanes. Mrs Shullot says to me that I spend so much time
travelling on your airline due to my international business interests that I
must know the beds in Frankfurt airport’s hotels better than my own. Or perhaps
she is trying to tell me something.
I don’t want to see all this thrown away by the EU’s ill-conceived plans to
combat this thing called “climate change”. Apparently Lufthansa said the
aviation industry has received
€20bn in rescue
aid from EU governments since 1991. Was that wise? Such statements are grist to
the mill, by which I mean ammunition, to the mad greens who will jump on
anything to twist to their own apolyptical claims about the end of the world as
we know it. After all, they claim that global waming is responsible for all
those people that collapse at the London Marathon. Nonsense! They just didn’t
train hard enough.
