Our planet is suffering the consequences of decades of unsustainable and thoughtless practices, where pollution plays a major role. But, although the situation may seem overwhelming, change can begin with everyday actions and conscious decisions. In fact, the cumulative impact of the little things we do every day can have a profound effect on the environment.
But it seems that Paz Padilla is not much into the job. At least for a day. The Cádiz presenter has once again become the protagonist of a controversy for having used a private jet to undertake a short trip.
Using a private jet for short trips is considered harmful mainly due to its large carbon footprint. These planes, designed for comfort and luxury, consume a significant amount of fuel compared to other modes of transportation, such as trains or cars. Especially on short flights, the proportion of fuel used for takeoff and landing is high in relation to the total journey, resulting in energy inefficiency.
Despite this problem, Padilla got on one of these planes to experience, as she herself says on her networks, the same as Georgina Rodríguez, who has always flaunted her hectic pace of life and for which she requires constantly using this plane. type of transport.
The plane, designed to offer a luxury experience, had drinks of choice, tablets for entertainment and a bathroom equipped with hygiene and first aid products. Specifically, Padilla highlighted his surprise when discovering that the bathroom had everything from medications and first aid kits to deodorants and lint rollers.
For this reason, the networks have not forgiven this outrage against the environment perpetrated by the comedian. Criticism has largely focused on the shortness of the trip and the environmental impact of choosing a private jet over less polluting means of transportation: “I find it disrespectful and lacking in empathy.”
Although the possible double standard of the woman from Cádiz has also been highlighted. “A lot of being supportive and you consume that way to pollute, you have no shame” or “A lot of organic gardening, but…” have been some of the comments that have filled her networks.
However, not all the comments have been negative. Some have defended the presenter. There are those who have argued that, if given the opportunity, many would also choose to travel by private plane.
