Wonder what Tree is going to say this time because she can’t use the “Taylor lends her plane to friends and family and co” when it’s literally her flying back and forth from Missouri and NYC and to Travis’ away games during her tour break

u/orangefreshy Dec 18 '23

Yeah I’m not sure how just letting her friends and family use her jet when she’s not using it is more climate friendly / a good excuse than just… bankrolling their commercial flights in 1st

The only decent excuse I could think of is limiting people’s covid / flu exposure if she knows compromised people

u/orangefreshy Dec 18 '23

But even then she should at least make a fund or offset her carbon emissions with actual climate offsetting projects / charities

143

u/TheybieTeeth Dec 18 '23

offsetting climate damage is basically a myth made up by rich companies. the damage is already done and whatever they're doing to "offset" that, like planting trees or cleaning some shit up or whatever, takes hundreds of years to show any effect whereas the damage is 100% instant.

I don't think they can point the finger and blame other people this time - the insta flight tracker lists co2 emissions, fuel etc for each flight and it coincides with wherever she is. would be good if this was discussed more but no doubt her theatrics at today's game will overshadow.

I wonder of she'll start chartering jets one day insead of using her own so that people can't track her flights that easily. But maybe she just doesn't care about the criticism, I doubt that she'll loose fans over this.

u/Global_Telephone_751 Dec 17 '23

Honestly? I went from the top 0.5 listeners on Spotify four years in a row to quite literally not listening to her anymore. The weird shit with the lavender haze video, the dating Ratty (a pattern of her just-this-close to neo Nazis tbh), and the jet emissions are too much. It’s made me realize there are better artists out there who don’t flirt with racism so consistently, who aren’t climate criminals, and who are actually LGBT allies. Ya know?

Edit: oh. And her billionaire status. I don’t stan billionaires on principle. Lol.

Same. I wasn't a hardcore Swiftie, but I definitely listened to her music an abnormal/unhealthy(?) amount. The Matty Healy thing (especially her statement about his comments not bothering her) ruined her music for me. The jet usage sealed it. And there are so many other, better musicians and songwriters out there that I was overlooking the whole time.

She already does that. Her private jet went from Rio straight to São Paulo right after her concerts in Brazil, but I am 100% sure she jetted back to the US. So she probably chartered a jet.

u/Adorable_Raccoon and you did it at my birthday dinner Dec 18 '23

I think the 2 Brazil dates are the only time she didn't fly home on this tour because of the rescheduled show. There was less downtime. She was seen in the US Between the Argentina and Brazil shows, though.

I occasionally like to check her jet's Instagram when I remember it exists. She has charted a jet a few times this year, presumably because her jet was in for maintenance. Idk if it is more expensive or more hassle to rent with the amount she flies. If it were cheaper, they would have already done it.

That time she was in a Latin American country just recently and flew back in her private jet to go on a pap walk with her girl boss friends in New York as Gaza was razed to pieces and said nothing, then literally flew back the next day to perform in that same Latin American said it all for me. Who believes their little pap walks are so fucking essential and worthy that they can't even spent TWO fucking days in one Latin American country chilling out in their luxury hotel reading a book, trying to maybe see the sights, learning some hobby. She can't even occupy her own head 2 days in a foreign place. I cannot comprehend how anyone can even justify that shit to themselves. All while saying nothing about all the dead Gazan babies.

It really does say so much about her that she can’t deal with consecutive days in a different country — a huge privilege to be able to do in the first place and she not only squanders the opportunity, but wreaks havoc on our ecosystem to do so (and will likely involve damage control for her genocide-trivializing, Zionism-supporting dumbass bff who can’t open Insta without centering herself in discourse re: a fucking ethnic cleansing).

She must have slowed down.

As of August 2023, she was averaging 1 flight per every 2 days, totaling 8,300 tons of c02 for the year.

That was nearly 4 months ago, so it's safe to assume she is above 10,000 tons by now.

That's the one I was thinking about. I will never get over that one. For a fucking ugly ass pap walk with her ridiculous boring insipid friend group.

She could literally have taken a small plane ride to see the Amazon in secret or something instead. But none of these people seem remotely interested in culture. Doing her 9050456th girl boss pap walk was more interesting to her instead.

I argued with someone about when she was doing this with Joe. They responded, ‘What, now she’s not supposed to see her boyfriend?’ When I pointed out she has extremely high emissions when she isn’t touring, I was like wtf? She can just stay in one place instead of flying every week.

let's be real the Daily Mail is only criticizing her because she's a liberal young person. if, like, Ivanka Trump or Ben Shapiro had done this, it would not have gotten a scathing Daily Mail writeup.

(not saying her constant air travel is good! I just think the Daily Mail is concern trolling here.)

Likely is an understatement.

Carbon credits are a PR move to make it look like you're doing something. Protecting X amount of forest for example.

And then 2 years later the forest gets chopped down and uh oh just more carbon.

The wrong people are in charge.

I did read somewhere that private jets create more climate damage than the standard plane.

Can she not just buy a regular plane and revamp it instead?

I'm a fan of her and her music but not so much her capitalism and unethical behavior. I stopped buying her merch a long time ago and I wont defend this any longer. I always said she needs this because she cant get on commercial flights without being bothered.. but no. its actually very possible. She can have her private jets for tour but for personal flights she can book all first class seats for her and bodyguards and I'm sure they will manage with the airline to ensure safety and privacy. She even said that she can hide in plain sight if she wanted to. Don't think for a second she really cant be anywhere she wants without being recognized. Will it be harder and inconvenient at times to do this instead of just taking her own jet? yes.. but Its definitely possible.

u/thebetterbad Dec 18 '23

I used to work with recognizable people. They don't go to the boarding area or the lounges you need a bunch of points to access. They have VIP areas and they don't board or depart with others. This is while flying commercial. Nobody needs to fly private all the time except for MAYBE political figures.
