Do as we say, not as we do

At an environmental conference in Norway, some key attendees arrived by private jet, raising questions about their devotion to the Church of Global Warming.

Both from Aftenposten:
The head of the UN's environmental program opted for one of the least environmentally friendly modes of transport to get to this week's conference in Tromsø.

Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg and his predecessor Gro Harlem Brundtland both pride themselves on being environmental advocates. Their credibility fell into question after they used a private jet to get back and forth to a conference in Tromsø aimed at cutting emissions.
I wonder if their carbon offset accounts are now overdrawn.
