Kamala Harris claims to be concerned about the “existential threat” of climate change yet spends millions on private jets
Vice President Kamala Harris, who has jet set on the campaign trail delivering various speeches on combating climate change, said on multiple occasions that the issue is an "existential threat" to humans. However, critics question her knowledge of green as her presidential campaign has spent millions on private jet flights.
"There's no question we have to be practical. But being practical also recognizes that climate change is an existential threat to us as human beings," Harris told CNN in 2019. "Being practical recognizes that greenhouse gas emissions are threatening our air and threatening the planet and that it is well within our capacity as human beings to change our behaviors in a way that we can reduce its effects. That's practical." (Related: Corporate media relying on very recent history to claim global warming – but with a longer view of time, it's clear that human-caused climate change is a HOAX.)
But despite calling on people to make changes in their lives to prevent climate change, her campaign has spent at least $3.8 million on private planes in less than six weeks, according to a Fox News Digital review of disbursements on the Federal Election Commission website. Between July 24 and Aug. 30, the Harris campaign paid dozens of private jet companies, including the Advanced Aviation Team, Private Jet Services Group, Principal Aviation and FlexJet.
Those companies were requested to provide their luxurious private jets whenever Harris needs to make a campaign stop in major cities. Most of the payments were to Advanced Aviation, which offers aircraft ranging from eight-seater turboprop jets for trips of up to three hours to 18-seater ultra-long-range jets, which deliver a "comprehensive list of on-board amenities and sophisticated finishes" and include a flight attendant for travel times of up to 16 hours, according to its website.
NLM: Private aviation is the most energy-intense form of air travel
Meanwhile, the National Library of Medicine (NLM) reported that private aviation is "the most energy-intense form of air travel." It estimates that fuel use per passenger on private flights varies "but is estimated to be on the order of 10 to 20 times higher than the average fuel use per passenger hour for a commercial flight."
The Biden-Harris administration set climate goals for the aviation industry, releasing an aviation climate action plan that aims for aviation emissions to drop 20 percent by 2030. In August, the administration announced that $291 million from the Inflation Reduction Act would be allocated to projects to reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions from aviation by 2050.
Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump pledged to dismantle the Biden administration's "green new scam" in his acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention. He vowed to boost production of fossil fuels, such as oil, natural gas and coal, and repeal key parts of the 2022 climate law.
