I was wondering why does Chris have fly by private jet to Palm Springs, 35 minutes from Las Vegas, on a Learjet 45. The Learjet 45 has a normal cruising speed of 846 kmph. Its fuel consumption at this speed is 579 litres/hour, which means it burns 0.68 litres of kerosene per kilometre(3).

The Airbus A321, a standard medium-haul commercial plane, travels at 853kmph and uses 3000 litres per hour, or 3.52 litres per kilometre(4). It seats around 189 people. Assuming that average occupancy is 70%, or 132, then every passenger is responsible for burning 0.027 litres per kilometre, or one 25th of Chris Martin’s consumption.

It’s probably fair to assume that he flies at least 100,000 miles (or ten return journeys averaging 10,000 miles each) in his private jet each year. If so - and even before taking the rest of his activities into account - he would be exceeding his fair share of carbon by 250 times. If we were to take the other climate changing effects of air travel into account, we would multiply this by 2.7 times.

Chris please think about all the harm you are doing to our skys and our world,

Thank you Conor Ryan a cold Coldplay fan

and stop driving big expensice BMW X5s These are one of the thirstiest 4×4s on the road. The US Environmental Protection Agency reveals that in cities they manage just 16 miles to the gallon.

you should be driving a new hybrid car whth little or no emisions you have the money to invest in one of them.

Just a thought.

Peace

Conor Ryan

is that all you say?

Conor Ryan - yeah... because this is a "Rate the avatar above you" and not about the topic you're talking about.... Perhaps opening a thread in Coldplay: The Band. The Music in the Coldplay section wouldn't be that bad idea... ;) And of course, don't post the same question in multiple threads. Just a wee advice. :)

 

And because you don't have an avatar, I can't really rate it... :S so 0.
