The armored Cadillac, known as the Beast (The Beast) of 8 tons, and consumes a liter of diesel every 500 m, arrived accompanied by 27 cars
“Enough! Enough of killing with carbon. Enough of treating nature as a toilet. Enough of burning, drilling and mining. We dig our own graves ourselves,” said United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres dramatically. at the opening of the UN Climate Change Conference in Glasgow.
His words provoked an avalanche of positive reactions from those gathered, including US President Joe Biden, who added: – We are responsible for all previous problems and we will solve them, we owe it to other nations, but above all to our children and grandchildren – Biden pointed out.
However, already on the first day, during the conference, strong plans and promises to reduce harmful gas emissions fell into the water. While Biden fed the gathered with stories about climate change, his Cadillac was spotted at the gas station in Edinburgh, which mocks every spoken word of the American president by consuming fuel and emitting harmful gases.
The armored Cadillac, better known as the Beast, weighs eight tons and is powered by a 6.6-liter six-cylinder turbodiesel engine that consumes a liter of fuel every 500 meters. CO2 emissions are on average ten times higher than a standard car. However, the Beast is not the biggest problem. It is not another, identical Beast, which always travels with the president and serves as bait. The biggest problem is the ‘accompanying circus’ of about a hundred vehicles that follow in the footsteps of the president. Along with them, there is also an Air Force One plane and a Marine One helicopter.
Last week, the caravan of the American president arrived at the Vatican with Pope Francis. Even then, a column of 85 vehicles provoked fierce reactions.
The beast with which Biden arrived in Scotland costs two million US dollars. With oxygen tanks, a bottle of the president’s blood type, the Beast is immune to all attacks, from bullets and chemical attacks to bombs. The windows are 7.6 centimeters thick, and the body produced by General Motors is made of steel, aluminum and titanium. The fuel tank is also armored and full of special foam that prevents an explosion even in the event of a direct hit.
