In the 21st century, there is a more concerted effort to do everything we can to combat global climate change. While the best way to combat climate change is still a matter of debate, one thing most people agree on is that, more than anything else, all of these efforts will be for naught.
Private jets, as they fly through the skies and leave a carbon footprint, are a major contributor to air pollution. There is no denying the serious negative impact that private jets have on the environment and, although the extent of this impact is up for debate, they are accelerating climate change.
More and more internet users are dedicating their time to keeping an eye on how their favorite celebrities frequently use private jets to travel around the country.
While it may not be a direct solution to climate change, a growing number of internet users are dedicating their time to keeping an eye on how their favorite celebrities are using private jets for their frequent cross-country trips, with the clear goal of holding these celebrities accountable for actions that may harm the planet.
This approach might even make it seem like celebrities need to change how they get from point A to point B. This kind of tracking used to be quick and easy to do on Twitter, but things have changed since Elon Musk bought the social media site. Luckily, there are other ways users can see how their favorite celebrities and their private jets are impacting the environment.

There's a ton of fun things to do with Google Earth, and to be honest there are a few hidden features, but we've dug out five for you to try out.
Climate Jets
Private jets' current climate impact
Climate Jet
One good-looking website that tracks the environmental impact of private jets flying around the country is ClimateJets. However, there are a few drawbacks to using this site.
ClimateJets appears to have stopped tracking travel and impacts for years other than 2022. But that doesn't mean the site isn't useful for finding out what people were doing during the year and how far they traveled during that time.
The best thing about ClimateJets is that the site presents the information in an easy-to-understand way: The site offers a colorful line graph showing the amount of carbon dioxide emitted per person who flew around on a private jet in 2022.
1. Go to Climate Jet website.
2. Scroll down Click on the bar graph or type in the celebrity you want to see in the search bar at the top of the page.
3. click To view more information, click on the corresponding orange bar.
On the main page, you can browse the list from most to least influential and compare the most and least influential celebrities the site tracks.

My Climate
Another site where you can check out the impact celebs are making when they're jetting around the country is MyClimate Carbon Tracker. This site offers a bit more and different information than ClimateJets, and it also provides data for two years (2022 and 2023) rather than just 2022. The downside to this site is that you can't search by name, although there are some dropdowns that give you the ability to narrow down the names that appear on the page.
1. Go to Myclimate website.
2. click Check out the pink banner at the bottom of the page for carbon rankings.
3. Click on the name To see a breakdown of your flights, please see the following page:
Four. click Destination posts will link to your Instagram page, with posts featuring photos from that particular trip.
Being able to actually see what celebrities did during their travels is certainly an interesting addition to the information, but if you just want simple data, you can also see things like how many plane rides they took and the carbon impact they had on the environment.

FAQ
Q: Can I track all private jets?
When flying a private jet, whether or not you can track the plane depends on where and where it's flown, the type of private flight the pilot has applied for, and whether the plane's owner has blocked the plane's tail number from being tracked.
Q: Can someone with a private jet go anywhere?
Private jets can go anywhere commercial planes can fly, as long as they file the correct flight plan and follow all other regulations.
Q: Can I block private jets from being tracked?
As of June 2024, new rules that were just signed into law allow private jet owners and operators to keep their registration information anonymous. Going forward, it will be nearly impossible to collect crash information unless those flying private jets allow their information to be made public.
