Get a Life! Be a CO2 Douche - Fly to Apartheid New Zealand!

What’s all that about?

Everyone in New Zealand starting from the un-authorities to the “tarts” and “crumpets” at advertising agencies is scratching their butts trying to get more tourists into the country for fleecing.

More and more conscientious visitors from the US and Britain are opting out, however, canceling their high-carbon visits to apartheid New Zealand. Intelligent people know that flying to New Zealand is an act of eco-terrorism.

Flying to New Zealand once produces 50 percent less carbon dioxide than flying to New Zealand twice!

On a return flight from the United States to New Zealand, each visitor produces about 7.4 metric tons of CO2 pollution; a UK visitor produces about 17.64 metric tons of CO2.

[Note: Driving an average passenger car in the US over a year, traveling 12,500 miles (20,112 km) and consuming 581 gallons (2,200 liters) of gasoline, produces about 11,450 pounds (5.2 metric tons) of carbon dioxide. A couple on a return flight from the US to NZ produce as much CO2 as driving their car for about THREE years! A European/UK couple on a return flight to NZ produce more CO2 than in EIGHT years of driving.]

Unfortunately, three American tourists were last seen visiting the exact spot on Wellington’s Mount Victoria, where F**king “Frodo from Lord of the Rings stood looking troubled.”

Saatchi and Saatchi, the vampires of commercialism, with their corny slogans and downright dishonest tricks on “selling” New Zealand, are back, again, on the government payroll: “Our remoteness is our strength.” [Recall George Orwell's famous slogan perpetuated by The Party:"War is Peace; Freedom is Slavery; Ignorance is Strength." ]

No! That is false:

Your remoteness means 17.4 metric tons of CO2 pollution produced per UK visitor.
