That’s not a solution to the question I asked - She needs to travel in order to entertain. Making suggestions of “she should just stop doing it.” doesn’t work because then she can’t do her job. I’m not hear to debate the ethics of her flying - because I agree, it’s incredibly wasteful and exorbitant.
I am asking - Since she must travel, what alternatives can she make to travel that are not harmful to the planet. What can she do to at the very least to offset the carbon footprints she’s leaves with every flight.
Tour busses, guys. Tour busses. They aren’t not harmful, but they are a huge measure less harmful than sending her gear by truck and her by plane so she’s not inconvenienced. But if we were expecting her to be actually not harmful…tour busses that run on biofuel. Artists don’t enjoy being on the road in busses because, yeah, they take longer. But it’s her convenience weighed against the planet.
A lot of celebrities need to travel to entertain. A lot of those celebrities do not fly nearly as much as Taylor Swift does, and continue to make a living. Knowing these facts, one logical answer to your question is that she could probably fly a lot less than she does and still maintain her career as an entertainer.
It’s not that she shouldn’t travel, which seems to be your takeaway of the criticism of her. It’s that she should fly less, or do it much more efficiently (if she needs to fly, does she need to fly separately from everyone else in her crew that is going to the same location, or can she chart 1 jet for everyone?)
I didn’t say she had no other choice - I’m asking what her other choices are.
At the very least doing what all other celebrities are doing, which is flying a lot less than her

That’s what I was saying, would a fleet of trucks and buses be any better from an emissions standpoint

Okay that is fair - flying less is a valid point. Apologies for misreading the prior answer.
