The stuff is gathered from public flight records, it's just the easiest way to present the data. Just like it's getting pushed back from you now it would get pushed back from climate change deniers saying we don't know how you computed it if they computed instead of just presenting a distance and accepting that the number is going to be a huge amount of CO2
I recall an article comparing CO2 emissions of private jets verses commercial airlines a couple of years back. A bunch of assumptions were made, but the rough figure was five times higher per passenger mile. When you consider that people who use private jets are likely flying more than those who use commercial airlines, and that individuals are being asked to make sacrifices for the sake of reducing CO2 emissions, then yes it is consequential.
No - they think there's a palpable disconnect between the public environmental statements made by men like Zuck, and the way that they themselves behave.
Give me a break. For every person that actually truly cares about this, there are a hundred people here that pretend to care because it gives them a high horse excuse to dunk on people they hate. I’d bet good money that almost every person here pretending the reason they care is the carbon emissions only thought of the carbon emissions after already being happy about the trackers and then seeing the parent comment giving them a proper moral high ground reason to fuel their hatred.
Pretty sure it's just Zuck haters trying to annoy Zuck.
