There was one proposal in Sir Rod Eddington’s report to the Treasury with which, when I first read it, I wholeheartedly agreed. He insists that “the transport sector, including aviation, should meet its full environmental costs”. Quite right too: every time someone dies as a result of floods in Bangladesh, an airline executive should be dragged out of his office and drowned.
Not only does he swallow whole, the snake oil pseudo science of the global warming “we’re all going to die” hysteria crowd without so much as a nod to critical analysis, not only does he over simplify a complex discussion with a direct correlation between airline executives and flooding in Bangladesh, but he exposes the pink underbelly of his belief system. Here is something deeply repugnant, something wicked indeed. The politics of socialism displayed in Moonbat’s writing is here to see; envy, spite and hatred.
Oh, and George, old boy, more coaches on the roads are not the cure; they are a part of the problem – and you wouldn’t get me screaming and kicking into one. It is probably the most appalling and uncomfortable way to travel imaginable.
I own a second home, so doubtless dear George will look censoriously upon me. Not that that will make any difference to my actions. As far as I am concerned, Moonbat can fuck himself… with a pineapple.
Monbiot is a hypocrite to the core.

That section is pretty buried on his website, and the website for his book omits it entirely.

Is someone going to drag Georgie out of his office and drown him?
That, too, is a part of the socialist dogma. They seek to impose the worst deprivations on others while living it up themselves. There is something deeply evil about their philosophy.
