ArticleBody:The latest Federal Aviation Administration reauthorization bill contains a pointed amendment within it—the government is making it much more difficult to monitor and track private aircraft travel. The new law passed last week will almost exclusively benefit the nation’s wealthiest flyers and obscure public attempts to hold them accountable for their disproportionate carbon emissions.

People often track the flights of high-profile public figures like Taylor Swift and Elon Musk to highlight the dramatically exponential amount of carbon emissions generated by the world’s wealthiest people. Swift, for example, traveled 178,000 miles in 2023 while emitting an estimated 1,200 tons of CO2—83 times that of the average American. Musk flew a total of around 8,600 miles in that same timespan.
