Environmental hypocrisy? Greenpeace embarrassed by leaders’ jet-setting carbon footprint

[Geee]

Washington Times:

THE HAGUE — For two years, Pascal Husting’s employer chartered a jet to shuttle him most weeks between his home in Luxembourg and his office in Amsterdam.

 

Such trips are common for executives at major internationalcorporations in Western Europe.

 

But Mr. Husting isn’t working for a corporation. He is the international program director for Greenpeace, the nonprofit that is arguably the world’s most high-profile environmental advocacy organization.

 

Mr. Husting’s weekly commute prompted a chorus of derision from Greenpeace opponents after “Flygate” was revealed in Dutch media this summer.
