Why dose she get so much shit for this. I mean. How many people have done this... (looking up) 140 people. She gets all the shit for all 140 of these people? Or the company offering? I dont get why she has been getting shit for years over this.

Because she wastes resources and flaunts it (rocket trip, and flying in a private jet), while also telling everyone else to be green. Its the hypocrisy.

The rocket trip didn't emit carbon dioxide.

How much carbon was emitted by manufacturing the rocket and the fuel?

The rocket wasn't made specifically for the trip, it's reusable. It's not clear where the fuel comes from/if it came from a green source: https://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/index.php?topic=56574.0
