Beyonce Knowles Helps The Environment By Flying Commercial

Sure, maybe we aren’t extremely happy with her fur-wearing ways, but Beyonce ain’t all bad. The pop-star recently revealed that when she travels she goes commercial…and sometimes even flies coach.
Beyonce says: “Even now I sometimes fly economy if I need to. We had a storm in Miami and there was a hurricane coming so we just got out. You know the airlines where if you’re fifth in line, you sit in seat five? And then they throw a peanut at you with your drink? I don’t care about those kind of things.”
True, Beyonce doesn’t always fly coach because “It’s just that people don’t give me peace in economy, that’s the hardest thing”, but still we love that chooses to avoid flying private, which ends up creating so much waste!
While flying in general is hard on Mother Earth, its almost a better choice for the environment to fly commercial vs. private. If you’re taking a trip soon, head on over to TerraPass.com and find out how YOU can offset your flight. Offsetting may not be the ultimate solution, but it’s certainly better than not. Happy travels!
