Environmental activists have blasted Harrison Ford for making "unnecessary" trips by air, following revelations he once made a jet journey to buy a cheeseburger.

The "Indiana Jones" star began flying when he was 52. After receiving his license, he went on to purchase several aircraft, which he keeps at Santa Monica Airport in California.

Yeah I wonder how much CO2 Al Gore spews in in the form of burnt JP-4 out of HIS jet flying around spreading lies? I guess if you a an elitest snob or among the ruling class it's ok...the rest of us peons need to stay on the ground riding bicycles.

Signed Cessna 195 driver...

Dr. Wendy Buckley, director of the Web site, has called on Ford to set an environmental example and cut back on his flying.

Impy calls on Dr. Wendy to STHU.

They're just jealous that he made the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs.

Harrison Ford ... once made a jet journey to buy a cheeseburger.

I recall years ago reading about Howard Hughes doing the same thing (not in a jet though). Seems he liked the burgers at a place out in the desert and liked to take friends there.

IMHO, how many flights Harrison Ford takes is none of the enviroloonies’ business. Those lowlifes should all be given 5 work days to find a job and do something productive with their lives. Failure to do so should be grounds for putting their asses in jail. Normal people should not have to put up with all the BS from these freaks of nature. The hoax and scam is over.

Pitiful- a 70 year old man( yeah, they keep changing his birthdate( originally it was 1940) thinks he’s Han Solo, takes up with a woman younger than some of his kids, and spouts environmental BS at every opportunity.
I guess all that jet fuel and heat doesn’t affect the planet if you’re ‘enlightened’ and use it to enlighten the common rabble. He SHOULD be slammed for his hypocrisy!
I guess if he’s confronted with his hypocrisy he’ll get after you with his bullwhip- or sic the Wookiee on ya. Talk about crossing the reality line!

Mr Ford has made several helicopter flights for search and rescue operations. Which of those would the environmentalists have canceled?

All of them...for the sake of a downsized, sustainable human population.

Those fall under the heading of "necessary flights"...only Barry the Magnificent can take his wife to NY for a date night using Air Force One....not any of the rest of us....they make the rules but never live by them.
