The U.S. Olympic team is one of a handful that will supply air conditioners for their athletes at the Paris Games in a move that undercuts organizers’ plans to cut carbon emissions.
U.S. Olympic and Paralympic CEO Sarah Hirshland said Friday that while the U.S. team appreciates efforts aimed at sustainability, the federation would be supplying AC units for what is typically the largest contingent of athletes at the Summer Games.
“As you can imagine, this is a period of time in which consistency and predictability is critical for Team USA’s performance,” Hirshland said. “In our conversations with athletes, this was a very high priority and something that the athletes felt was a critical component in their performance capability.”
The Washington Post reported earlier this month that Germany, Australia, Italy, Canada and Britain were among the other countries with plans to bring air conditioners to France.
none of these accurately characterize my position
Because you don’t have a position, hence why you just whine about being victimized like the bad-faith conservative you are instead of re-iterating or clarifying anything. Go ahead and claim I’ve committed another formal fallacy on an informal discussion site instead of using your words like an adult, you commies are all so predictable smh. Materialism really does lend itself to anti-intellectuals who think they’re so smart, doesn’t it?
this just ad hominem. it doesn’t change the truth of what i’ve said at all.
am i a commie or a conservative? this is incoherent.
i’m pretty sure all the fallacies i’ve called out are informal.
i do, and i’ve said it plainly, repeatedly: being vegan doesn’t help. each year the animal agriculture industry grows, despite the existence of vegans.
baby, i’m an anarchist. it’s bad faith to tell people what their politics are instead of believing them.
