In his role as President Joe Biden’s climate czar, John Kerry has flown more than 180,000 miles—flights that emitted more than 9.5 million pounds of carbon, a Washington Free Beacon analysis found.
The Free Beacon reviewed 75 of Kerry’s official travel announcements from March 2021 to July 2022, which show Kerry has flown roughly 180,100 miles—the equivalent of traveling around the world more than seven times—to discuss climate change with various world leaders. Planes on average produce 53.3 pounds of carbon dioxide per mile traveled, according to carbon emissions modeling website BlueSkyModel, meaning Kerry’s flights have produced 9.54 million pounds, or 4,772 tons, of carbon—roughly 300 times the average American’s carbon footprint for an entire year. From May 13, 2021, to May 19, 2021, for example, Kerry traveled to Rome, London, and Berlin before returning stateside. Those flights total roughly 10,100 miles and 538,000 pounds of carbon.
It’s unclear how many miles Kerry will have to fly to solve climate change, an issue he’s called an “existential … crisis.” It’s also unclear exactly how Kerry flies to each location to perform his official duties as climate czar. His office told Fox News that he flies “commercially or via military air in his role as Special Presidential Envoy for Climate,” but Kerry’s press releases do not reveal which option is utilized for each individual trip. The top Biden official’s government Twitter account has posted photos of Kerry using electric buses and scooters but has not shared snapshots of his plane travel.
Kerry’s office did not return a request for comment on additional travel details and whether Kerry could conduct any of his international meetings virtually. more
Guess it’s time to restart my tire burning operation to help fill the gap.
I wonder if the Useful-Idiots (gloBull warmers) will ever figure it out.
Well, Lurch has to get around and spread his bullshit somehow!
Junk Airy, you must ATONE!
Henceforth, ESCHEW EXHALATION!
So, WE know he’s a lying hypocrite … and HE knows he’s a lying hypocrite … so how is it the Media and the morons can’t figure this out?

izlamo delenda est …
I wonder how much bullshit john effin kerry has emitted over the years in his unholy crusade against globull warming? It must be in the millions of tons if you could measure bullshit.
Monsieur Jean Fraud Gigilo Goodhair, the phony-baloney, not-too-swift-boat, medal-tossing, flip-flopping, arrogant, self-absorbed, dumbed-down, Jihad Coddling, Moisturizing Metrosexual Precognitive Meteorologist, Politically Correct, gold-digging, ketchup money-loving Easter Island fashion model with Churchill Downs Syndrome aaaannnd still living off his second wife’s first husband’s fortune. This swindling Federal Tit-Sucking Parasite is making money off of pedaling the Global Warming false narrative while investing in beach-front property and LYING to the American people by proclaiming he is somehow “Carbon Neutral”!
When they say “commercial”, they mean charted jet service. You know, security concerns and stuff.
“Moisturizing Metrosexual Precognitive Meteorologist”
I’m dead.
“…Emitting 9.5 Million Pounds of Carbon…”
And 10 million pounds of horse (face) manure.
Meanwhile Trumps nonsensical lawsuit against the wonderful “Clintons” was tossed. Everyone knows he’s in bed with the Russians. Secret Whitehouse meetings with Putin was most likely given him national nuclear secrets along with that mandatory blow job.
What if that little Viet Cong kid had shot Ketchup Kerry in the back instead of vice-versa?
For one thing, we’d have 4,772 fewer tons of carbon in the atmosphere. There would probably be other benefits.
Does that carbon figure include FrankenLurch’s speeches. That’s gotta be a minimum of 5,000lbs of manure-based carbon EACH!
Give him a break, can he really fit in a car with that oversized Mardi Gras head of his?
Lil Johnny Heinz says it’s OK, they buy carbon offset credits. Plus, ya know, he’s important :/
