Reducing plastic consumption, reducing our carbon footprint is very important for us to maintain the balance of the world and for a sustainable environment to be sustainable. That’s why we’ve been living with the taste of cellulose from paper straws while drinking coffee for a long time, trying to reduce our meat consumption and using public transport. Since there are about 8 billion members of our species on the planet, the more people take this approach, the more we protect the planet.
On the other hand, jet voyages are an indispensable part of their lives for many famous names. Of course, no one thinks that a world-famous singer will wait for a scheduled flight at the international departure terminal in Sabiha Gökçen, when he goes on tour, for example on his way from Istanbul to London. Still, there is a lot of criticism that there are celebrities who use their jets even for very short distances.
Taylor Swift is at the top of the list
Using the information in Celebrity Jets, which tracks the movements of celebrities’ private jets, the UK-based digital marketing agency Yard has revealed which celebrities cause the most carbon emissions with their jet use. According to this list, Taylor Swift is the celebrity with the highest carbon emissions.
The US singer’s private plane has made a total of 170 flights this year, with an average flight time of 80 minutes. This means that the famous singer stayed in the air for 230 hours. The carbon emission of the singer, who spends almost 10% of the year in the air, means 8,293 tons of carbon emissions on average.
The rest of the list is as follows:
- Floyd Mayweather
- Jay-Z
- A-Rod
- Blake Shelton
- Steven Spielberg
- Kim Kardashian
- Mark Wahlberg
- Oprah Winfrey
- Travis Scott
