Qantas
and Climate Change
Below are extracts of letters between
the
airline company Qantas 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 Stephen
Thompson, Regional General Manager, Qantas –
I really enjoy flying with Qantas. You provide an excellent service, punctual
planes, helpful stewards and comfortable seats that are yet to give me deep vein
thrombosis. It’s wrong that you are called a Quarrelsome And Nasty Typical
Australian Service. You truly are the spirits of Australia.
I’m concerned about the criticism the aviation industry is getting for this
fantasy called “climate change”. I’m glad to see that Australia has no truck
with this obscenity. The country produces the greatest amount of CO2 per head
and did not sign the Kyoto Agreement, and has let America take the flak for it.
Well done! There’s a lesson here for the rest of us.
The “environmentalists” claim that global warming will create one billion
refugees by 2020. If this is the case then see it as an opportunity. That’s one
billion people looking for a new country to live in. Your planes can take them
there. It would be better than travelling by boat on the open seas run by people
smugglers.
Qantas replied –
Thank you very much for writing to our Regional General Manager, Stephen
Thompson. I know he was thrilled to get your letter and genuinely delighted with
your positive comments.
Our industry is all about the service customers receive and so when we get
praise it genuinely makes it all worthwhile.
We appreciate receiving any feedback especially feedback that is so positive.
Please accept my sincere thanks for your kind words.
Letter to Qantas
