President Joe Biden on Friday drove through Rome accompanied by an approximately 85-vehicle motorcade.
The move received criticism prior to the global warming summit scheduled for Glasgow, Scotland, according to the New York Post.
“Not exactly carbon friendly,” one social media user commented.
“Ridiculous, no man needs that much of an entourage,” another replied.
Biden has routinely stated there is a “climate crisis” due to fossil fuels. However, it was unclear how many of the motorcade cars were electric or hybrid, and they appeared to be typical limos, SUVs, and vans.
Washington Post reporter Seung Min King said in a White House pool report “we are told it is 85 vehicles” in the motorcade, according to the New York Post article.
“The president’s domestic motorcade usually features only a couple dozen vehicles, not including those used to block off traffic,” the outlet said
