Somesuspect that Swift’s team had an ulterior motive:namely that her appearance at the Jets game was a ploy to get hercontroversial use of private jets buried by her supposed newfound love of football.
So how exactly would this work,and what problem is she trying to solve? Let’s investigate.
In August last year,Swift was named in asustainability report that revealed the celebrities with the worst carbon emissions from their private jets,based on data from the now-suspended X account @CelebJets.
Data showed Swift was the worst offender,as her plane racked up 170 flights in the first 200 days of 2022 alone,releasing 8294 tonnes of carbon emissions into the atmosphere – reportedly more than 1000 times the average person’s annual emissions.
Swift used to own two planes,but reportedly sold one in 2020. Following the report,a spokesperson said the claim was “blatantly incorrect” since the pop star could not be held responsible for “most or all” of the trips taken on her jet because she regularly lends it out.
