The cherry on top of the hypocrisy sundae for Sanders and AOC — both avowed eco-warriors — is the significant environmental impact of private jet travel.
According to the International Energy Agency, 51% of private jets burn around 239 gallons of fuel per hour — meaning they spew more carbon emissions into the atmosphere in 121 minutes than the average person does in an entire year.
The Bombardier Challenger used by the pair of self-proclaimed climate defenders guzzles a whopping 365 gallons of fuel every 1.32 hours, according to Nature journal Communications Earth & Environment, placing their fly ride well above average.
The study said those who regularly travel by private jet produce nearly 500 times more carbon each year than the average person worldwide.
