Tell Branson to Pick a Side on Climate

Sir Richard Branson,

You called climate change "the greatest threat ..... of our lifetimes," yet Virgin Atlantic Airways is fighting implementation of the European Emissions Trading Scheme for international air travel. You can't mean both. Pick a side.

Why is this important?

Richard Branson called CO2 "the greatest threat...to our planet." But his Virgin Atlantic Airways is trying stop his international jet passengers having to pay for their CO2 emissions. One day he wants to save the climate, the next day he's fighting for the right to pollute at will. Tell him to pick a side on the climate.
