According to the account, his plane \u2013 known as \u201cAir Drake\u201d \u2013 took off from Hamilton, Ontario, on July 12 to make an 18-minute trip to Toronto. On June 17, the plane then took the same flight \u2014 this time only being in the air for 16 minutes. But wait, there is more. The trip was made one more time on June 28, lasting\u00a0 just 14 minutes. Seriously?! CelebJets reported that each of these flights resulted in about five tons of carbon dioxide emissions!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: Kris Jenner Concerned About Kylie\u2019s Spending Habits After Private Jet Backlash! <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Oof, so not good.<\/p>\n<p>Considering the environmental toll these short flights can have due to the greenhouse gasses emitted AND how massive the plan is, many climate activists and social media users have slammed the <em>Degrassi<\/em> alum. <strong>Ian Borsuk<\/strong>, a climate campaign coordinator, even told <em>CTV New Toronto<\/em>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI 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. I think it can really be frustrating for some folks when, you know, they\u2019re thinking to themselves, \u2018OK, well, I\u2019m 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.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Now, it looks like Drake is firing back at the criticism and defending his recent short flights. Replying in the comments section of an <strong>Instagram<\/strong> post from <strong>@realtorontonewz<\/strong> about his jet usage, he wrote:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThis is just them moving planes to whatever airport they are being stored at for anyone who was interested in the logistics\u2026nobody takes that flight.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<figure id=\"attachment_924720\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-924720\" style=\"width: 405px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-924720 size-full lazyload\" width=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/perezhilton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Drake-Responds-To-Private-Jet-Criticism.jpg\" alt=\"Drake Defends His Private Jet Taking A 14-Minute Flight Last Month After Facing Backlash!\" height=\"248\" srcset=\"https:\/\/perezhilton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Drake-Responds-To-Private-Jet-Criticism.jpg 405w, https:\/\/perezhilton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Drake-Responds-To-Private-Jet-Criticism-300x184.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 405px) 100vw, 405px\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-924720\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(c) @realtorontonewz\/Instagram<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>But that still does not negate the fact those short trips do so much harm to the planet since they\u2019ve now emitted a ton of CO2 \u2013 and some people were quick to point that out, writing on<strong> Twitter<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cSo @Drake is clarifying that no one is on the plane when it flies from Toronto to Hamilton and it\u2019s just logistics to get the plane in storage\u2026we know, and that\u2019s the problem!
