I get it. There's nothing like face-to-face.
It's just that, one comes off as a two-faced Janus, when they talk about how their nation is going to lead the rest of the planet into a renewable promised-land, then jump on super heavy, for a very long-distance trip, as if it made no difference.
He might have at least gone with net-carbon, bio-jet-fuel, and mentioned the fact. Stunt.
This is the apparent hypocrisy which motivates the Greta Thunbergs of the world to jump on a sailboat for the same type of trip. And into a Tesla, on wind power, for ground transportation portion.
