The Global Citizen Festival put on by the group Global Citizen
has trashed 12 acres of Central Park in New York City. Ironically this group
that pushes for sustainability on our planet went ahead with plans to hold a
music festival even though there was a bad weather outlook for the area on the
date they had planned.
This group preaches responsibility for our planet
along with reducing poverty and making social change for climate change.
In an attempt to rationalize their behavior, the group
claimed, “yea but look how much we raised!”
As a direct result the festival has now destroyed a 12
acres section of Central Park and forced its closure until spring of 2024.
Although the festival brought in close to $470 million
and has offered to pay $1 million to restore the property to its original
condition, Councilwoman Gail Brewer has claimed that it’s more than just
monetary damage.
Brewer says that the major part is the inability of
the residents to use the small section of the city as an urban escape from the
hustle and bustle of the city life.
A similar situation occurred at the Burning Man
Festival last month, between the trash left and the damage to the landscape
from the thousands of attendees, cleanup crews have been working for a month to
restore the land to the condition it was before they had the festival.
One has to wonder if the municipalities that issue the
permits for such events will issue permits for future events of this size.

Climate change is a cult, a hoax, and the new religion replacing the idea of a god
I think the municipalities should levy fines along with restoration fees, that would stop them!
Guess they know best on how to save the planet! SMH
typical hypocrisy of the left!
