Maybe a bit exaggerated but the super rich produce a lot of CO2 compared to an average person.

People like Elon Musk have gulfstreams. Elon has a gulfstream G550 which outputs 9,432 lbs / 5 mT per hour. He traveled 150,000 miles in 2018.

That 150,000 miles is same as the emissions of 70 average Americans. And Elon isn't the only one to use that jet. Its used to shuttle his employees too.

Aviation industry is responsible for 2.8% of global emissions, but it is portrayed as the villan. Btw, Boom Supersonic is looking into synthetic fuels to stay carbon neutral.
