It’s the new Hapsburg Chin.

I’m also over any philantropic claims being made by someone who continues to promote a really shitty image of women and how to treat them. Hypocrisy does not sell! Sorry Leo, couldn’t even tell you when I last spent actual money on you in the cinema. May have been Gangs of New York, and boy, did I regret that.

That’s poetry indeed.

The point is that Leo’s credibility is completely undermined by his lavish, carbon-heavy footprint. It’s worse than that, because his hypocrisy is magnified tenfold because of his fame, and reflects badly on any environmental organization he comes in contact with. It can be argued that he’s doing damage to the…

what exactly did “college graduate cohorts out in the world furthering our environmental mission “ do ??

A carbon tax disproportionately affects the middle class and poor.

Maybe the French revolution got it right? Maybe these rich aristocrats need a little help cutting things back, if you know what I mean.

One transatlantic flight in economy equals one queen sized mattress of Antarctic ice sheet melting

I wholeheartedly disagree. Private flights are terrible for the planet and totally unnecessary in 95% of cases. It teaches wealthy people that their money buys them better treatment, causing them to believe they ARE better than the rest of us.

Money. He would be a high reward target for organized crime or a rogue state. Even half a billion dollars would do nicely, and only scratch the surface of his wealth.

The royals actually can (and do) fly commercial. https://www.vogue.com/article/how-the-british-royal-family-does-air-travel

That isn’t true though - they’ve famously flown commercial - in the US to their friend’s wedding in Tennessee (theHoliday Inn Heiress I think), and Meghan and Harry flew Easy Jet to the south of france a few years back. With the baby, I can see them wanting to fly privte - but they can fly commercial.

Yeah... No actually. Mexico’s president, AMLO, has chosen to fly commercial, in spite of our country being slightly violent. It can be done.

For the longest time Bill Gates flew commercial. As he was the richest person on the planet, I would think that his need for security would be higher than almost anyone.

This blog is garnering a ton of “jeez, so snarky!” and “what, they don’t deserve vacations?” replies.

Maybe she’s getting loads of shit for implying a form of transatlantic travel that takes up to a month is practical for most people.

Meghan and Harry, especially Meghan, get a lot of unnecessary criticism for stupid things. See the criticism over her crossing her legs or wearing black nail polish. However, I don’t think this is one of those times. Flying first class or business class isn’t that big of an inconvenience, even for rich and famous…

Or they could have flown commercial. That family has done it before. 

I feel like there’s a compromise between being chained to the compound, and jetting to Ibiza for the weekend. And if he’s going to lecture the world on greenhouse gas emissions, maybe he should try to find it.

We live in a world where Leonardo DiCaprio, Katy Perry and Bradley Cooper are the brightest minds of our age. Just think about that for a while.
