Signing a program according to which an aircraft can fly once every two years is not only a scandal, but also a huge hypocrisy – said politicians from Solidarna Polska on Monday, referring to the C40 report, the association of mayors of 100 cities.
Less meat, dairy and travel
The authorities of nearly 100 cities, including Warsaw, signed the C40 Cities report, which makes recommendations to counter the climate crisis.
According to the recommendations, the ownership of personal cars in cities should be reduced and the period of use should be greatly extended, and material efficiency should be increased. 28 percent of passenger cars would disappear from city streets by 2030 and the reduction would be 39 percent by 2050.
The decrease in ownership of new clothing would amount to 39 percent. by 2030 and by 2050 it would be 66 percent.
The situation is the same in the nutrition report. The authors of the recommendations recommend reducing the consumption of calories, dairy products and meat – eventually preferably to zero in the long term. The reduction in our diet would reach the magnitude of 36 percent. in 2030 and in 2050 already 60 percent.
Warsaw City Council, according to the Warsaw News Agency, refer positively to the proposed changes and restrictions. It was emphasized that participation in the Cities40 project facilitates the implementation of climate policy and the reduction of greenhouse gases by 40%, the municipality’s goal in 2030.
When the matter came to light, the network was in turmoil and politicians asked Trzaskowski to refer to the recommendation. The reaction of the president of Warsaw was nervous, and instead of an answer only mockery and an attack on Law and Justice.

Trzaskowski himself should lead by example
Politicians from Solidarna Polska commented on the report of C40 Cities – an association of mayors of nearly 100 cities, including Warsaw, at a conference in the Sejm. The report’s recommendations to counter the climate crisis include: limiting the consumption of meat, dairy products, buying clothes, cars or air travel.
According to MEP Patryk Jaki, “signing a program according to which the plane will only be able to fly once every two years is not only a scandal, but also a huge hypocrisy.”
We expect that Rafał Trzaskowski, since he has already signed this statement and wants to introduce the C40 program to everyone, let him lead by example
Jake emphasized.
Poles did not come out of communism with such great force only to return again to such communist ideas as the C40

SP scores Trzaskowski’s hypocrisy
Politicians from Solidarna Polska presented at the conference a map of business trips that the mayor of Warsaw would make.
Rafał Trzaskowski, during his presidency for 4 years, flew the limits of 150 years that an ordinary person would have

The implementation of the C40 program will not look like Civic Platform passing a law limiting meat consumption to 16 kg per year. They will introduce taxes on specific goods and people will not be able to afford them
– noted Deputy Minister Kaleta.
