Taylor Swift's romance with Travis Kelce has produced 138 tons of CO₂ in 3 months

The superstar singer was named the biggest celebrity CO2 polluter of the year in 2022, and she looks set to take the title for a second consecutive year as she squeezes in quality time with the Kansas City Chiefs tight end.

Swift has not only flown back and forth between New York and Kansas City, but has also made trips in-between performances in South America for her ongoing Eras World Tour as her romance with NFL star continues to develop.

Based on statistics tracked by Taylor Swift's Jets on Instagram, the hitmaker's trips have produced 138 tons of CO2 emission to date. The journeys have used up 12,622 gallons of jet fuel, which is calculated to be worth a whopping $70,779. In her biggest trip to date, Swift flew from Sao Paulo, Brazil to Kansas City - with a stop over in Tampa, Florida. The journey used 4,151 gallons of fuel, which is believed to be worth $23, 250. 

The singer would need to plant 2,282 trees and allow these to grow for 10 years in order to offset the environmental damage caused by her flights.  It is the equivalent of the energy used by 17 houses in one year, or the electricity use of 26.9 homes for one year, according to the Greenhouse Gas Equivalencies Calculator.

I knew she was freaky

She needs to create a foundation for planting trees already. In high school I was part of the Reforestemos Patagonia group and I think us alone through fundraising got enough to plant like.. a couple thousand trees. There are so many areas that do tree planting/need the new trees. $2B gross revenue in 2023, trees are like $10 to plant so she could easily get 100k, 200k planted.

From what I understand she has purchased TONS of carbon credits this year to more than offset her flights.

Carbon offsetting is just outsourcing being ecological for feel good vibes. It doesn't actually counteract the problem that her own (unnecessarily excessive) outputs will be causing

Honestly, she is the first ethical billionaire of this generation. All the good change she’s doing to this world outnumbers bad ones in my opinion. She has changed the world a lot in a better way. So she doesn’t deserve any backlash.

Im not a Taylor hater, but how did she “changed the world”?

Maybe when she’s making 1000 versions of different variations of plastic records is ecological?
