Yesterday, I flew my enormous private jet to Vancouver to take pictures at the #pride parade.
This round trip flight burned 60,000kg of jet fuel, and emitted more carbon than every single car in Canada will emit in 2024, combined.

“This round trip flight burned 60,000kg of jet fuel, and emitted more carbon than every single car in Canada will emit in 2024, combined.”
That’s so patently ridiculous that I’d posit it’s thrown out there just to facilitate another example of how bad at math “right wing white supremacist fascists” are as it’s spread all over the interwebs...
60,000 KG of jet fuel is 19,400 gallons. You’re average busy SINGLE gas station probably processes that quantity of fuel on a bi-weekly or monthly basis...
It’s obvious that flying around a politician or a star on a jet pumps out more CO2 than the average of a LOT of us pleibian rubes, but sheesh, 5 minutes of math and conversions puhleaseee...
