Also, be careful what you believe when you ask AI a question - what’s wrong with this answer? "A Boeing 747 burns roughly 18,000 to 24,000 gallons of fuel for the Miami to Frankfurt flight, which is about 36,000 to 50,000 liters. "

I mean an Atlantic round trip fully laden, yah but that’s just even economical compared to private jet travel, which completely defeats the purpose of the shock value number

Everything about private jet travel is shock value inefficient if you compare it to “normal people” CO2 emissions.
A friend won a $14M lottery payout, he didn’t go for planes but he liked boats, so it’s to be expected that he buys a couple of boats. The boats themselves weren’t so impressive, what was impressive was going out for a day-trip fishing with him… and burning 800 gallons of fuel. Sure, we went a little farther than my Uncle’s boat could go in a day just because the lotto win boat is faster, but a day fishing pretty similar fish with my uncle? 10-20 gallons of gas if we’re trolling (which we weren’t in lotto win boat), 3-5 gallons if we just run around and anchor and chum like we normally do.

Man, your uncle sounds awesome.I really hope one day a reckoning of some kind will spear through both money and friendship and family and land on — oops we ended humans as a species and also brought with us the most gorgeous environment in existence.
