He is just using the transportation that's available to him, just like you and I do (and would if we were in his shoes).
Nowhere in the film do I see him pointing his finger at the "lower class scum", clearly global warming is being discussed as a large scale global problem that needs large scale solutions, he's not absolving himself from it.
I don't see why people get so defensive about this.

Saying that he's using the transportation available. Come on man, he rented a megaboat for a sporting event that burns what you and me burn in a month in a day. He flys all over the world in a private jet. He living high on the carbon hog yet expects the rest of us to cut back.
He has a 3 building mansion. and in this picture a huge amount of cars, plus other mansions and getaways.
I'll give him credit he owns a tesla and he installed solar cells on one of his condo's. But lets not make him a savior here. His footprint is massive, yet he preaches to the rest of us about reducing ours.
He doesn't need to live in a teepee, but come on, what kind of lesson is he teaching here.
