This attention-grabbing stunt will emit nearly four times as much carbon as the average American \u2064produces in a day, according to a <em>Washington Free\u2064 Beacon<\/em> analysis.<\/p>\n<p>The DNC&#8217;s plane will proudly display \u200ba banner that reads, \u2062&#8221;GOP 2024: A Race for the\u2063 Extreme MAGA \u2063Base,&#8221; as\u200c reported by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/newsletters\/playbook\/2023\/08\/22\/the-debate-stage-is-set-the-mayhem-is-just-beginning-00112210\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Politico<\/em><\/a>. The plane being used, a Cessna 172, is typically used for banner\u200d towing and emits \u200dapproximately\u2062 165 pounds of carbon per hour, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/communicatescience.com\/zoonomian\/tag\/cessna-172\/#:~:text=We%20can%20estimate%20C02%20from,to%2075kg%20CO2%20per%20hour\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">estimates<\/a>. Assuming the DNC plane circles\u2063 Milwaukee for \u2062the two-hour debate, it will \u200demit roughly 331\u200c pounds of carbon.

In addition to the plane, the DNC has also booked a &#8220;mobile billboard&#8221; that will circulate the streets of Milwaukee near the debate venue. It \u2062is worth noting that the Biden administration has proposed measures to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/top-automakers-blast-unrealistic-biden-plan-to-force-ev-transition\/\" title=\"Automakers criticize Biden's impractical EV transition plan.\">limit tailpipe emissions<\/a>, and President Joe Biden himself emphasized his efforts to combat &#8220;the existential threat of climate change&#8221; during \u200ba speech in Milwaukee on August 15.<\/p>\n<p>Eight Republicans will take the stage\u2062 in Milwaukee on Wednesday night, \u2063including Florida governor Ron DeSantis, anti-woke activist Vivek Ramaswamy, \u2062South Carolina senator Tim Scott, and former United Nations \u2064ambassador Nikki Haley.
