Tracking the person is a side effect, this is all about tracking the CO2 emissions and comparing to public statements that people made about that.

- Gee101 2y agoOr it's just interesting information that the person creating the tracking account can make some money off.
- realce 2y agoTwo things can be true at the same time.
- FL33TW00D 2y agoDo people honestly think the CO2 emissions of his private jet are consequential?
- yarg 2y agoNo - they think there's a palpable disconnect between the public environmental statements made by men like Zuck, and the way that they themselves behave. It's to illustrate the hypocrisy.
- browningstreet 2y agoThey absolutely are.
- II2II 2y agoI 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.
- FL33TW00D 2y agoAviation contributes 2.5% of the global CO2 emissions per year. The decisions Mark makes are more consequential than his private jet usage.

- IncreasePosts 2y agoYou can track CO2 emissions without stating where the plane is or was.
- sqeaky 2y agoThe 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
- BurningFrog 2y agoI really doubt it's that noble. Those planes emit a nano-percent of all CO2. Pretty sure it's just Zuck haters trying to annoy Zuck.
- sqeaky 2y agoWtf?! These accounts often link to shit like billionaires saying people need to use paper straws or set their AC hotter at the same time.
- gdhkgdhkvff 2y agoGive 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.
