<p>Earlier this month, word of a brief trip taken by Kylie Jenner in her private jet got out online, causing the 24-year-old socialite to be <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/kylie-jenner-dubbed-climate-criminal-by-twitter-after-taking-12-minute-flight-in-her-private-jet-news.155217.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">hit with plenty of backlash</a> for the hefty amount of CO2 emissions that were created as a result of her rumoured California staycation.</p>
<p>Since then, more attention has been drawn to the issue, and other celebrities like <a href="/tags/floyd-mayweather" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Floyd Mayweather</a> and <a href="/profile/Drake" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Drake</a> are being dragged through the mud for allegedly contributing to the problem. In fact, the Canadian rapper in particular reportedly generated a whopping five tons of air pollution with an <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/drake-criticized-for-his-fourteen-minute-flights-on-private-jet-news.155495.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">18-minute-long flight from Hamilton, Ontario to his hometown of Toronto, Ontario</a>.</p>

<p>&#8220;I think we need to as a society have a conversation about whether we should be allowing these private flights to be happening in the first place,&#8221; climate campaign coordinator Ian Borsuk said during an interview with <em>CTV News Toronto</em>.</p>
<p>&#8220;I think it can really be frustrating for some folks when, you know, they&#8217;re thinking to themselves, &#8216;Okay, well, I&#8217;m doing everything I can in my daily routine to cut down on greenhouse gas emissions, such as taking public transit, buying local products, and things like that,&#8221; he continued.</p>
<p>Borsuk also noted that &#8220;in some cases, you know, these flights by private jets could be undoing an entire year&#8217;s worth of effort by one person.&#8221;</p>

<p>After being hit with plenty of criticism and accusations, Drizzy has crafted a response on Instagram. &#8220;This is just them moving planes to whatever airport they are being stored at, for anyone who was interested in the logistics,&#8221; the 35-year-old wrote.</p>
<p>&#8220;Nobody takes that flight,&#8221; Drake confirmed.</p>
