It would be equally important to make a graph of how much CO2 they offset by paying taxes, even if only theoretically.

Interesting. Outside of that, do any of these people do any other activities that offset the damage they do with their private jets?

Just wondering because this is such blatant clickbait material for an editorial, I won’t be surprised if an article about it is being written right now.

I kinda find it creepy tracking people’s flights. Besides, some jet owners charter out their planes when not in use, so it’s incorrect to attribute all the miles to them.

How do taxes offset CO2? If anything they indirectly contribute to carbon emissions by way of fossil fuel subsidies.
