As dumb as the average Frenchmen may or may not be, I’m not sure I’m buying this one. The poll was probably faked.
A new poll shows that a shocking number of French citizens support banning people from flying more than four times in their lives due to climate change.
A poll from research firm Consumer Science and Analytics Institute (CSA) found that 41% of citizens would support such a limit. That number rose to 59% support among 18-24-year-olds. The suggested limit, proposed by engineer Jean-Marc Jancovici, would apply to air travel for business and pleasure.
The poll surveyed 1,010 French residents over the age of 18. It found that support for air travel restrictions was far higher among younger age groups. While a majority opposed the four-flight lifetime maximum, 64% of the respondents said they would be willing to limit their air travel in the near or medium term to combat climate change.
Limiting people to four lifetime flights sounds insane to me especially considering how much this dumb weather hoax has hit a wall.
Why would anybody be willing to impose such a restriction on their personal freedom?
Many of these polls are manufactured for specific propaganda purposes. This appears to be one of those cases.
