Elizabeth Warren (D\u2013MA), Bernie Sanders (I\u2013VT) and Leonardo DiCaprio.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll the environmentalists of Hollywood and Washington do it. Their position on climate change is, \u2018We must do more to stop pouring carbon into the air, except for me when I want to go somewhere, and then I take a private jet,\u2019\u201d Maher said. \u201cIt turns out there is one thing in this world that is completely impossible to resist, and this is it. It\u2019s like heroin. If you do it once, you\u2019ll never stop.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Maher also attacked John Kerry, Biden climate czar for using a personal jet and said that it would be the same if the Secretary of Homeland Security did the same. \u201csmuggled drugs in his butt.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople take jets to environmental conferences. If you could run TED Talks on hypocrisy, you wouldn\u2019t need coal,\u201d He stated. \u201cBut, sorry, not sorry. I tried to do my part to the environment. I never had kids, the one thing worse for the planet than private jets.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Maher declared that electric cars can be made more environmentally-friendly. \u201csucked\u201d And most people do not realize this. \u201cfull of s***\u201d When it comes down to living in a way which is good for the environment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd I\u2019m done being full of shit,\u201d He added. \u201cI can take being a bad environmentalist because almost all of us are, but I can\u2019t take being a hypocrite.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo yes, it\u2019s fun to laugh at powerful people,\u201d He concluded. \u201cThat\u2019s how I can afford to fly private, but we need to get serious. Really. More nuclear, moving way more money into research and development, I don\u2019t know, but something serious because the real technological problem is the way people are wired. I know it\u2019s easier just to blame Taylor Swift\u2019s plane, but honestly, do you want to be stuck on Southwest with a pissed-off Taylor Swift?\u201d<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Insanity can be defined as repeating the same thing over and again. Expecting to be insane is an example of insanity. <br \/>Different results, we must stop trying to fix the environment in a way that is insane and instead try something different. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/tj4tXfTUtY\">pic.twitter.com\/tj4tXfTUtY<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Bill Maher (@billmaher) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/billmaher\/status\/1619197003224711168?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 28, 2023<\/p>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bill Maher, host of HBO\u2019s \u201cReal Time,\u201d slammed left-wing environmentalists for using private jets and not addressing their hypocrisy.
