Climate Summit Attendees Arrive in 400 Private Jets to Discuss Reducing Emissions

Delegates agreed the planet is running out of time, then asked the tower for a later slot so they could finish the champagne.

DAVOS-ADJACENT — Four hundred private jets landed in tight formation this week so their occupants could tell everyone else to take the bus.

The summit’s opening session, titled “Equity in the Anthropocene,” was delayed 40 minutes while a duke’s Gulfstream was towed off the only taxiway.

A spokesperson noted that the jets were offset by a small recycling bin near the catering tent and a pledge to plant a tree in a country none of the delegates could find on a map.

When a junior staffer suggested a group Zoom next year, the room went silent, then booked 400 return flights plus a “just in case” spare.

Satire. If you read this as a press release, please sit down and drink some water.
