Everything about private jet travel is shock value inefficient if you compare it to “normal people” CO2 emissions.
A friend won a $14M lottery payout, he didn’t go for planes but he liked boats, so it’s to be expected that he buys a couple of boats. The boats themselves weren’t so impressive maybe twice the size of my Uncle’s boat, what was impressive was going out for a day-trip fishing with him… and burning 800 gallons of fuel. Sure, we went a little farther than my Uncle’s boat could go in a day just because the lotto win boat is faster, but a day fishing pretty similar fish with my uncle? 10-20 gallons of gas if we’re trolling (which we weren’t in lotto win boat), 3-5 gallons if we just run around and anchor and chum like we normally do.
Man, your uncle sounds awesome.I really hope one day a reckoning of some kind will spear through both money and friendship and family and land on — oops we ended humans as a species and also brought with us the most gorgeous environment in existence.
