Spielberg's 357 ft. Superyacht |
Steven Spielberg champions the evils of global warming yet when it comes to fossil fuels... well, he has no qualms about using them.
His pleasure craft is a $250 million superyacht, which guzzles a mind-boggling 700 liters of diesel fuel per hour. The ship boasts two swimming pools, a movie theater, and a helicopter landing pad.
"I'm terrified of global warming. It's a reality. It's not a political a trick" says Spielberg. Hmmm, in addition to his yacht, he owns a Gulfstream G650 private jet which logged over 17,000 miles last year, at a fuel cost of over $116,000.
The talk doesn't seem to match the walk. If you want to fancy yourself as a proponent of reducing fossil fuel consumption and believe in the global warming scenario, and tout it - than don't live a lifestyle that consumes tons and tons of carbon-based energy.
