Drake criticized over 14-minute private jet flights

Drake  came in for criticism online after the Twitter account Celebrity Jets tracked flights by his private jet from Toronto to nearby Hamilton.

The account tabulated that the 70-kilometre flight had used up 1,522 litres of fuel, putting out roughly 4 tons of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere.

Drake took his plane from Hamilton to Toronto on an 18-minute flight July 12. He made the same trip on a 14-minute flight June 28, and again on a 16-minute flight June 17. 

Last summer, Drake partnered with climate group Aspiration, which promised to help him reduce and offset his carbon footprint by auditing his schedule, events and travel.

This is actually right by my hometown! I'm almost 100% sure his jet is being stored/services at the Hamilton airport. It's a much smaller airport that does that type of thing, and also, there is nothing for Drake to be doing in Hamilton, rest assured :laughga:

(not that it's any better for the environment, obvi, private jets are bad no matter what, but this celebrity jet twitter is kinda missing the point that ALL jets, not just celebs, get moved around on these extremely short flights all the time)

Do we know what Gaga's jet is like yet? Or does she do regular planes?

Doesn't she charter flights when she needs to?

You're stinky

So there are really people who have nothing better to do than stalk the private jets of celebrities, and even calculate the quantities of co2 released? seriously?

Rich people doing rich people things :smh:

But honestly though, he's far from being the only celeb/rich person using air travel when they could use another less polluting means of transport. Also, I really don't understand how with all of the technological advances we still haven't figured out a way to make planes more environmentally friendly. Like, seriously, the planet is f*cking dying right now, what's it gonna take :saladga:
