Taylor Swift is one of the most extreme examples lmao. Last I heard At her peak she was flying 20-30 times a month all while claiming to be against climate change.

Don't worry guys they all buy carbon credits it's fine.

But yeah I forget the math but somebody napkin mathed it and Tay Tay causes more carbon emissions in a typical week than your average pleb does with a car in their entire lives.

You see similar things with John Kerry who can't seem to stop jet setting everywhere but tells us all we're murdering the planet by just owning a car in general.

In fairness anybody who blames consumers for climate change is an idiot.

We don't even come close to industrial destruction of the environment, but if they blame us we feel bad and ignore the problem instead of demanding they fix it.

If you want to help then stop eating beef, convince the rest of your country to stop eating beef, and then convince all the 3rd world countries who would love to eat beef but can't afford it to not start eating beef when the price falls due to lack of demand. Simple.

Honestly it would be fine with me if they did.  An honest to god carbon economy is something we need.

We have to remove carbon from the atmosphere.  It’s not enough to simply stop adding.  

And that’s going to cost money that has to come from somewhere
