After obtaining that elusive data, Shendure proceeded to analyze the information using programming languages Python and R, and went on to build the fully interactive website completely from scratch.
Within weeks, Shendure said that he discovered that well over 100 people who own private jets are emitting at the very least dozens - and in many cases, hundreds - of times what the average American does in a year, solely through flying.
The realization, Shendure said, came as particularly pronounced due to the fact that Americans boast some of the highest carbon emissions per capita in the world.
'It was surprising to me that this wasn’t being talked about more,' he told the paper, adding that he spends most of his free time on the pet project...
Simultaneously, many to make the list, as previously mentioned, have been unmasked as hypocrites by the Seattle high schooler.
Siebel, along with the prominent Murdoch and DeVos families, rounded out the top three - who collectively account for the same amount of yearly emissions as nearly 850 ordinary Americans.
Siebel, the 70-year-old founder of Silicon Valley software company Siebel Systems and the founder and chairman of AI firm C3.ai, has repeatedly voiced concerns over climate change.
Just last month, the tech mogul - who is worth more than $3.5billion - penned an open letter touting the importance of AI in the country's fight to address the ongoing phenomenon.

To nobody's surprise many of these "celebrities" of the climate change cult emit hundreds of times more greenhouse gasses than the average American.
Just remember that when they tell you not to eat meat, keep your house cold in the winter, don't have kids, don't drink coffee, eat bugs, drive an electric car, euthanize your pets, etc.
Lefty liberals are hypocrites on facts like these because they are in on the scam.
I’m series
Now if you phrased it like a conspiracy theory, and asked a lefty, they would deny it. Probably effusively.
“Do you think CO2 is a climate myth and an effort to stiffle capitalist economies?”
However, they don’t mind stars, celebs, athletes, and activists jetting around the world and spewing out tons of CO2, not because they truly in their heart believe it is damaging, but because they hate people. They want suppression, depression and control. It’s the same reason they freaking LOVED covid.
Thank them for their ‘sacrifice’ trying to save muvver erf. No doubt they clear their conscience by buying FTX carbon credits. 🙄😂👍
“hundreds - of times what the average American does in a year, solely through flying.”
The CO2 they emit while flying may remain in the atmosphere for 800 years.
The CO2 you emit near the ground gets absorbed quickly by trees and water.
This difference is why carbon offset credit selling is a scam on top of the ‘climate change’ scam. Water vapor is the main greenhouse gas. Water vapor drowns out almost all the possible effect of CO2 and methane.
He'd better not apply to Harvard or Yale, they'll reject him outright for a stunt like that!
But "carbon footprint" is just propaganda with no basis in science.
I wonder if their pilots and crew have had the “vaccine”?

Not to worry, they buy Carbon Credits from some dirt farmer in Africa so they can waste it flying to Davos.
They’re so terrified of rising sea levels due to global warming that several of them have giant energy sucking seaside mansions.
Clearly the kid is under the mistaken impression that leftists actually want to do something about climate change. They don’t. They just want it as a political issue to: (1) beat their opponents over their heads with, and (2) to build another constituent voting bloc, or cult if you prefer, that will vote for the Dems no matter what.
You see, the left only survives on single-issue voting blocs. Among other groups, this currently includes unions (especially Federal worker unions), blacks, baby killers, environmental wackos, PETA, rich-white-elitists, and the LGBTQ+ crowd. When these groups are no longer reliably Democrat, new ones have to be conjured up.
Duh…. #AlGore made sure the #RulingClass and #Elites could buy what ordinary Americans cannot. This is another example of #AmericanCorruptocracy.
#CarbonOffsets are #PaytoPlay. #Exemptocrats are here to remove me yo that socialism is not for the socialists. Never in the history of socialism has there been egalitarianism.
And that is just the totals of their “pollution” from flying!
Imagine their huge homes, limo’s, etc. etc.
Heck, it’s fine with me. If I had the money I’d have a private jet too. But I would be lecturing the masses about how the poor folks have to conserve to save the planet either.
Government corporate jet CO2 output far outweighs billionaire output
Yes, they buy their carbon credit indulgences from the church of gaia, so all is well. They are still (self)righteous.
We know a guy who last week decided it was best to fly by private plane and get a rental car for what would have been a 60 mile drive from his home to his vacation house. Of course, the destination airport was an overshot so the rental car had to backtrack halfway. What a waste of time, money and fuel, but if he hadn’t there’d be nothing to brag about.
“buy Carbon Credits”
Those are the indulgences for the rich—from the Church of the Climate Cult.
History just keeps repeating itself.
We have a train burning chemicals everywhere but there’s not been a peep out of Greta or Hollyweird or Harry and MEghan.
I’d guess it’s WAY more than 300 times.
