The Blue Origin founder is said to have made the 120-mile round trip journey by chopper from Govoka to the resort town of Fethiye.
The jet fuel used to power helicopters emits 21.095 pounds of carbon dioxide per gallon burned.
Since helicopters use up approximately 10.75 miles per gallon, Bezos’ helicopter emitted some 215 pounds of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
Both Bezos and Gates are reportedly staying on superyachts – each of which emits 7,020 tons of carbon dioxide per year, or 19 tons per day.
They could be using synthetic jet fuel or e_diesel either of which while not cheap produce zero or negative CO2.
The big boys are on board.

In smaller quantities for the rich, biojet fuels also are available. When you own a 65 million dollar jet the difference in fuel costs from $7 gal for JetA vs $9 gal for BiojetA is not even an afterthought. The rich will keep flying regardless.

Airbus is developing hydrogen fueled aircraft that the rich certainly could fly with.

In Europe hydrogen will be at cost parity in 2025 sooner with the current run up in prices for jet fuel worldwide.
The transition is happening with or without the luddites. The Chinese know this they are building nuclear power with integrated desalination,heating and hydrogen production they will dominate the world once they roll out hundreds of those integrated nukes. Power to X is the future there is no way to stop it now. Once solar power cross the threshold to be the cheapest power in human history it was and is inevitable that Power to X and the full scale electrification of everything happens.
