CelebritiesTaylor Swift (34) was one of the biggest causes of air pollution due to air travel in 2022, and she has already traveled a lot of kilometers in 2023. The 21-year-old student, Jack Sweeney, has calculated that Taylor Swift flew no less than 280,000 kilometers last year.
The student closely follows Taylor’s two private jets and recently made up her annual balance sheet: the singer traveled no less than 280,000 kilometers through the air. “That is equivalent to flying around the Earth seven times,” the student explains in a video on YouTube. “In doing so, she emitted 1,200 tons of CO2, which is about 83 times the average of an American.”
“This is not a competition to find the biggest polluter. I just want to create awareness,” he explains in the video. This seems to work not only with his followers, but also with the singer herself. Jack also notes that the private jet has hardly been used since December. According to him, she would from now on travel on charter planes, making it more difficult for spotters to track her. But she will also no longer fly to every concert of her ‘Eras Tour’.
Legal tail
Yet the singer is not happy with the information that Jack shares about her. Taylor has previously threatened to take legal action. She thinks that the student is helping her stalkers to trace her and has therefore sent a registered letter to him. “For you this may be a game or a path that you hope will bring you wealth or fame, but for our client it is a matter of life and death,” the letter said. “Ms. Swift has had to deal with stalkers and other people who wanted to harm her since she was a teenager. As a result, she constantly fears for her personal safety.”
