    I don’t know if all these recent jet memes are people just joking around or are you people actually convinced private jets are the problem?

    Taylor swift, and every single billionaire alive could be flying 24/7/365 OR NOT and it would make absolutely no difference to fighting climate change.

    The main polluters are industry and farming.

    All this other shit around are just distractions keeping you from actually going after the people that are causing our crisis.

    I don’t know if it’s astroturfing or what, but it seems like it’s deliberate manipulation to keep people inactive.

    You memeing on Tylor or using wood straws, or recycling your soda can does fuck all. A single paper plant will dump out so much co2 and pollution that will negate the effort of millions.

      A lot of it is political at end of day.

      Taylor Swift is looking to be a supporter of the Democratic Party in US, so the Republicans are running targeted attacks on her to reduce credibility as the election is coming up.

      It’s nothing new but just be aware that people posting these memes may just be bots/paid marketers essentially.
