Can you believe that anyone would be this unconcerned about the environmental despoilation that this kind of tourism causes? A round the world jet trip! Someone needs to contact environmentalists, so that they can embarrass these spoiled rich, probably Republican sorts!
Whoops! It is environmentalists promoting it! The World Wildlife Fund!

Trip Itinerary
Monday, April 6, 2009: Orlando, Florida
Meet fellow travelers, lecturers and expedition leaders at a festive welcome dinner at our hotel. Ritz-Carlton Grande Lakes, Orlando
Tuesday-Wednesday, April 7-8: Amazon Rain Forest, Brazil
The Amazon rain forest—the world's largest—contains thousands of endemic plants and animals, many still unclassified. Board your private jet for Manaus to enjoy a choice of Amazon explorations. Take a chartered riverboat to explore the "meeting of the waters," where the dark, clear Rio Negro and the pale, silty Rio Solimões join to form the mighty Rio Amazonas. Or take jungle walks amid the Parque Ecólogico's flooded forests, giant floating lilies, and other extraordinary plants. In the heart of the Amazon basin, rubber barons erected a magnificent opera house in Manaus using imported European bronze, tile, and crystal. We enjoy a concert at the stunning Teatro Amazonas. Tiwa Ecoresort, Manaus
And just to add to the fun--there's an ad about global warming running (at the moment) at the top of the page. Of course, who but a liberal could afford a trip like that?
