Reporter ACTUALLY ASKED John Kirby this Question 🤦‍♂️

A reporter asked National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby Tuesday if the Biden administration was tracking carbon emissions from the aid flights to other countries.
“Just a quick question about whether the administration includes environmental impact assessments in calculating how to support allies like Israel and Ukraine?” Andrea Powell of Voice of America asked Kirby. “Just for reference, we interviewed some environmental experts who estimated that in the last 60 days, U.S. supply flights to Israel contributed to 133,000 metric tons of CO2 emissions. That’s a lot, right. So is that part of the calculation that you make? And how do you balance your desire to protect the environment with your desire to protect your allies?”
