KIM Kardashian has been slammed for taking her multi-million dollar private jet on a 17-minute flight, covering a mere 35 miles, while producing a reported 2 tons of CO2 emissions.
According to online flight trackers, the quick jaunt between two neighboring Southern California cities, totaled approximately 145 gallons of jet fuel, at a cost of $914.

On Reddit, fans couldn’t believe the reality star would make such an environmentally harmful trip.
“Camarillo to Van Nuys is a 40-60 min. drive,” one person posted. “If she really needed to save that time then a helicopter would have more than sufficed.”
While another agreed: “Environmental destruction > 40 minute drive I guess?”
One follower asked how the entire family is not ostracized for their behaviors: “The environmental destruction of the Kardashian family is unfathomable.
“Flying is one of the absolute worst things you can do to the planet.
“Why do people not call them out for the impact they’re having on the climate crisis?”
Still, one fan had simply had enough: “I never want to see Kim post anything EVER about our climate. What a disgusting display.”
FREQUENT FLYER
Kim has been stepping up flights in the friendly skies lately, taking her fancy new plane on multiple cross-country trips from her California home to east coast stops in Orlando or Washington, D.C.
And often the trips are for personal pleasures.
Kim courted controversy last weekend when she jetted all the way to Orlando, where she and her boyfriend Pete Davidson were spotted leaving the tourist hotspot Ripley’s Believe It or Not!
The famed attraction is home to the iconic dress that Marilyn Monroe wore when she famously sang “Happy Birthday, Mr. President” to John F. Kennedy for his 45th birthday celebration at Madison Square Garden in 1962.
And fans took to Reddit with their theories that the trip may be linked to her attire for the upcoming Met Gala.
Just days earlier, Kim and Pete, 28, jetted off to Washington, D.C. for a romantic date night at and awards show.
The Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum and King of Staten Island star were among the many celebrity guests who descended upon the Kennedy Center in America’s capitol on Sunday.
They attended the 23rd Annual Mark Twain Prize for Humor, where comedian Jon Stewart was honored.
FANS RAMPED UP
And again, fans on Reddit were beside themselves.
“I had been hearing about climate change and caring about it since I was a kid,” one fan commented. “I feel so deflated at how little the people who MATTER care.”
And one fan went after Kim apologists: “It makes me sick to my stomach that so many people will blindly defend this woman who very literally would never spit on them if they were on fire.”
NO PLAIN PLANE
Back in February, the Hulu star bought her brand new plane, which is able to seat about 18 guests and rumored to cost nearly $150 million.
The jet has been named “Kim Air” and the guests were greeted with a welcome mat bearing the name as they boarded the plane.
They had a luxury breakfast in their seats at tables decorated with textured nude placemats and cream vases with roses.
While Kim dropped millions in order to purchase the plane, maintaining the G650ER will also come at a major cost.
For every 200 hours spent flying per year, the TV star is expected to spend $400k in fuel costs and another $100k for maintenance.
