Zuckerberg's 387-Foot Yacht Sparks Climate Backlash
Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Meta, has a new superyacht that is 387 feet long and costs $300 million.
It has four big diesel engines and can go really fast and far.
People on the internet are upset because they think it's not good for the environment, especially since Zuckerberg has talked about climate change before.
They say it's unfair that rich people like him don't follow the same rules about taking care of the planet that they tell everyone else to follow.
Some people also mentioned that Facebook is free because it uses people's data, which is another thing that makes them upset.
Mark Zuckerberg's new 387-foot superyacht, costing $300 million, has sparked widespread criticism for its environmental impact.
The yacht, built by Feadship, is powered by four MTU diesel engines and can reach 21 knots with a range of 6,000 nautical miles.
Social media users accused Zuckerberg of hypocrisy, highlighting a disconnect between his public stance on climate change and his personal choices.
Critics used phrases like 'Net zero is only for the peasants' to express frustration over perceived elite excess and environmental double standards.
The controversy also reignited discussions about Meta's business practices, including data privacy concerns.
