When asked why he “frequently flies up the coast, just for a cheeseburger,” Harrison Ford told CFACT’s Marc Morano “I’m a vegetarian now, thank you” while attending the UN’s climate summit in Madrid. Meanwhile, UN delegates lined up to chow down on beef burgers at the Burger King in the UN food court – all while calling for meat eating to be discouraged and even banned. The “Impossible Whopper” vegetarian burger was not even an available option.
MADRID, Spain — The UN climate summit in Madrid has been hit with a whopper of hypocrisy as delegates and activists attending are lining up daily for hamburgers at the conferences’ onsite Burger King despite the UN warnings that eating meat is not climate-friendly.
UN activists/delegates pile into Burger King at the Madrid climate summit and chow down the meat with abandon.
See: Impossible Foods wins UN climate award for making plant-based meat alternatives – “Impossible Foods is honored to receive the UNFCCC’s Planetary Health award to showcase plant-based meat as a true pathway to cut emissions and decarbonize the atmosphere. With solutions like the Impossible Burger, consumers can drive the movement to create a food system consistent with the urgent goals of the Paris Agreement,” said Jessica Appelgren, vice president of communications for Impossible Foods.

The question looms for the UN climate summit:
How dare they?

Bloomberg News: There’s Only One Vegan Food Truck at Save-the-Planet Talks – “It’s hard to find vegetarian or vegan food around this venue,” said Anil Datta, an observer from Australia in the midst of an hour-long wait in front of the food truck. “It’s an irony because this is COP, we’re talking about raising ambition to fight climate change and reducing emissions.”

Climate Depot Note: The UN is rapidly trying to expand its climate regulatory reach. The 2015 UN touted the Paris climate pact which was supposed to save the planet, but alas, it turns out it was not enough according to the UN. (See: UN admits ‘historic’ Paris climate pact did not save Earth after-all! Now says: Cutting CO2 ‘not enough’ – ‘We must change food production to save the world’).
The UN is now also pushing a global environmental pact. See:UN Paris agreement ‘on steroids’- France and UN push for new legally binding global treaty on environment & UN Pushes for ‘Paris Agreement on Steroids’
The UN has also expanded into trying to regulate land use with a species extinction scare. See: Video & Submitted Written Congressional Testimony of Marc Morano – Examining UN Species/Climate Report – UN report is ‘authoritative propaganda’
And now, the UN is trying to morph into a global food police as they try and expand their regulatory power to include food production!
Morano: “This is nothing more than regulatory lifestyle controls by the UN. They are empowering themselves with this report…This is an open call by the United Nations for activist policies in taxes and regulation. And we have seen activists come out with ideas like the meat patch, like a nicotine patch, which would induce allergies to people so they won’t eat meat. It’s getting whackier and whackier.”
“What’s interesting is back in the 1970s, they predicted a food catastrophe based on the global cooling scare.”
