  1. All that money but can’t afford to educate himself.

  2. More Heartland Institute “blame the consumer” clickbait.

  3. CEO’s not caring about anyone but themselves? That’s really odd.

  4. Hard to use stuff like this, I heard if you’re taking flights it puts you in the 20% richest on Earth. I hate billionaires as much as the next person, but I’m sitting in LAX rn and all of us here are climate criminals. To a lower degree, of course, but articles like this should just remind us that the primary form of globalized travel is a polluting mess and should be reformed. There’d have to be an organized campaign for sustainable air travel development.

    In Ministry for the Future, vigilantes take passenger planes out with drones as a protest and it crashes the market.

  5. 5,500 KG is about 6 tons…so where does the extra mass come from to make 19 tons of CO2?

  6. Imagine if there was a carbon tax so progressive that emissions by billionaires would cover removal of carbon from the atmosphere by 10x.

  7. I don’t know if that’s a good thing or not but that’s a really nice jet!

  8. What in gods name does it matter, America voted for their own destruction, the worst is they are going to screw over the test of mankind, simply because they are now allowed by voting in a man that has two good years left and simply is happy to burn the whole world with him!

  9. Carbon Taxes … Billionaires hate this one simple trick!

  10. Government responds by banning plastic straws to off set the carbon footprint. Life is good. .

  11. Dude … w t f.

    I get it he has the cash but these rich people are lighting US on fire.

  12. If everyone hates this so much, stop making him rich. Who is even on facebook these days anyway?
