Chapter 7103
When Charlie and his group got out of the car,
Many other people were already getting off as well.
Most of those taking this route were heading to the airport to catch their flights.
They had only an hour or two allotted, and some even had less than an hour until their flights.
Getting off now and sprinting towards the airport gave them a chance to reach their destination within an hour,
Waiting in the car risked missing their flights.
Hundreds of people dragged their luggage through the stagnant traffic.
Charlie noticed that many locals seemed unfazed by the situation,
Walking with their heads down, expressionless, seemingly indifferent.
When Charlie reached the end of the congestion,
He saw hundreds of people of various skin colors and ages, ranging from teenagers to those in their fifties and sixties, wearing hoodies with the slogan.
“Stop Global Warming,” sitting in the middle of the road, holding various flags and signs.
A few who appeared to be leaders were facing the torrent of traffic,
Passionately shouting something through megaphones.
Interestingly, there was even an East Asian face among them,
And her shouts were the most excited.
Charlie listened carefully and realized the other person was shouting in English:
“You people are all the culprits of global warming!”
“You are the main culprits for the melting of Antarctic and Arctic glaciers!”
Another girl joined in, shouting,
“That’s right! Arctic penguin chicks are losing their habitat.”
“And it’s all your fault, you selfish humans!”
“You drive cars and emit huge amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere,”
“Aren’t you ashamed?”
Charlie frowned and asked Maria, “There aren’t any penguins in the Arctic, are there?”
Maria smiled and said, “There shouldn’t be.”
“About a hundred years ago, someone tried to bring penguins from Antarctica to the Arctic.”
“But for various reasons, the population failed to survive stably.”
Charlie sighed, “People like this are acting as environmental volunteers.”
“Aren’t they ashamed?”
Maria smiled and said, “Young master, think about it from another perspective.”
“Anyone with a sound worldview and sufficient knowledge would never do something so childish.”
“That’s true.”
Charlie shook his head helplessly.
He couldn’t quite understand the thought process of the far-left people in the West.
At this moment, a middle-aged man in a suit stepped forward and said,
“Even if you don’t allow gasoline cars to pass,”
“At least let electric cars pass, right?”
“I drive a Tesla.”
“Even if you think cars cause global warming,”
“That doesn’t include electric cars!”
One of the younger men, holding a megaphone, angrily retorted,
“What I hate most are you hypocrites who drive electric cars!”
“Do you think your car won’t pollute the atmosphere if it doesn’t use gasoline?”
“Power plants burn huge amounts of coal to generate electricity,”
“Emitting astronomical amounts of greenhouse gases!”
“You electric car drivers are all accomplices!”
The middle-aged man, still indignant, retorted,
“You definitely aren’t…” “Skiplings!”
“In Scandinavia, at least 98% of our electricity generation is from renewable energy.”
“And the vast majority of that electricity is from hydropower.”
“How could it possibly emit greenhouse gases?!”
The other person was clearly caught off guard by his statement,
And then retorted defiantly,
“You’re just making things up.”
“You say renewable energy accounts for 98%,”
“And you really mean it’s 98%? Why should I believe you?”
The middle-aged man growled,
“You can check it! Don’t you have a phone?”
