This climate campaign, oddly enough, includes a trip to the Alaskan Arctic by the President to “call attention to the effects of global warming".

Based on government data, Obama’s jaunt to the Arctic aboard Air Force One will emit about 354,585 pounds of carbon dioxide, or about 161 metric tonnes, for just that one leg of the flight. That’s equivalent to what 22 homes emit from burning electricity every year or the annual emissions from driving 33 cars.
