    Is it weird that the only celebrity who’s getting a public print of emissions is one that is despised by a political party for getting people out to vote?

    I don’t really care much about her, but this feels like “how do we get young people to not listen to this person… ah, let’s go with emissions”.

      I’m sure that doesn’t hurt, but I think it’s primarily from being #1 on that list of private jet emissions. Easiest to remember who #1 is and keep talking about that.

      And well, she’s welcome to stop doing it. The republicans aren’t making her fly this much. I still think it’s a net positive if she inspires enough turnout to defeat Trump in 2024, but it’s still singularly her choice to send that plane up there and don’t think it’s that good for the environment.

        Oh no. It’s not good, and we should probably lambast the top 10 after the election. Right now, it just feels like the trap is communicating republican propaganda. We know how good they are for the environment, and the cost to the planet will be far greater…

    Imagine spending ~$25,000 every time you want to go see or support your bf.

    I balk at using a tank of petrol to go see my SO.

    Wouldn’t he be flying with his sports team anyway? And wouldn’t she be traveling as part of her touring schedule anyway?

        She can just fly first class in a regular commercial plane. Private flight is just stupid.

          Commercial flight isn’t too great either. High speed rail is a lot nicer.

          Not to mention; having your own plane is cool, but is it cooler than having your own train?

              I would honestly rather spend two weeks in the bilge of a container ship than eight hours on a plane so maybe they could do that.

                well, there’s this thing called ego; when people feel themselves like way important, they like to approach things in a more exotic/exclusive way, which only few people would have access to, to keep nurturing such ego. i wouldn’t really like to spend my journey in the bilge of a ship, but i get your point and upon which i agree: commuting in all its forms sucks

                  Gotta admit, bilge of a container ship is pretty fucking exclusive…

              She’d have some cute overalls and one of those engineer’s caps and a smudge of dirt on her face and suddenly every woman under 30 looks like that.
