    Are we suggesting that Taylor Swift is an individual here?

    Because taking a private jet everywhere isn’t exactly the same as the fossil fuel industry pinning climate change on the everyday person’s emissions.

      If you distribute the emissions on all the consumers, the concert goers then it’s probably negligible. And their fault. So we should attack people who go to music concerts. But really we should attack celebrity culture. Much less funny meme though

        I can’t believe I didn’t realize this but a few days ago someone here mentioned she could take a tour bus.

        Duh!

        She could reduce intra-country emissions by a lot but still use her jet to fly abroad.

          Yeah flying around the country performing concerts is absurdly wasteful, but we are in an apocalypse movie, this subplot about a musician flying around maybe being selfish or not just doesn’t really register amid the thunderous sounds of corporations and the rich demolishing whole swaths of our planet.

          Billionaires flying around on jets is disgusting because they don’t actually do anything they just tell other people what to do, fire people and collect the money. At least taylor swift or any other musician flying around actually PHYSICALLY gets up on stage and plays the gig in the cities they fly too.

      I mean, by definition she is an individual. A really bad individual when it comes to see CO2 emissions.

      If you’re interested in improving things. Then all the Taylor Swift posting is actually working against you. You’re basically spreading the vibe that Taylor Swift alone is the problem or that people who travel a lot in private jets are the problem. Which is not a useful truth in that there are way bigger polluters.

      What would be great is if we got a bunch of funny memes about industry producing a huge amount of fossil fuels. That would be more productive.
