The website says:<p>~ 1,895 tons of CO2 emissions.<p>According to the EPA (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.epa.gov&#x2F;greenvehicles&#x2F;greenhouse-gas-emissions-typical-passenger-vehicle" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.epa.gov&#x2F;greenvehicles&#x2F;greenhouse-gas-emissions-t...</a>): &quot;A typical passenger vehicle emits about 4.6 metric tons of carbon dioxide per year.&quot;<p>So about 420 cars worth of emissions.

I’m not an Elon fan, but “ $2,640,000” for transporting the nominally richest man in the world is….not that much?<p>You could use Climeworks to actually sequester 1895 tons of CO2, forever, for €1,895,000. So about doubling the operating cost, a bit under $5 million. Still…not that much? I mean, having the CEO on-site is useful. In person meetings are useful.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;climeworks.com&#x2F;one-off-climate-purchase" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;climeworks.com&#x2F;one-off-climate-purchase</a><p>Side note: I do not think Elon Musk is nearly as rich as reports make him out to be. His net worth is wrapped up in a single stock that went into a bubble, and now also in Twitter, where he is heavily underwater. He is not rich in a diversified way like Gates or Buffett.<p>But he is still more than rich enough to afford $5 million per year!
