London
(ANI):
Harrison
Ford
has
revealed
that
he
often
makes
jet
journeys
to
buy
a
cheeseburger.
The
Indiana
Jones
star
began
flying
when
he
was
52
and
after
gaining
his
licence,
he
went
on
to
buy
several
aircraft,
which
he
keeps
at
Santa
Monica
Airport
in
California,
reports
the
Daily
Star.
He
recently
revealed
in
an
interview
the
extent
of
his
love
for
piloting,
telling
Live
magazine,
"Learning
to
fly
is
a
work
of
art.
I''m
so
passionate
about
flying
I
often
fly
up
the
coast
for
a
cheeseburger.
Flying
is
like
good
music;
it
elevates
the
spirit
and
it''s
an
exhilarating
freedom."
However,
the
67-year-old
has
been
slammed
by
environmental
activists
over
the
comments.
And
Dr.
Wendy
Buckley,
director
of
the
website
Carbonfootprint.com,
has
urged
Ford
to
set
an
environmental
example
and
cut
back
on
his
flying.
"Flying
is
a
huge
source
of
carbon
emissions
and
making
unnecessary
journeys
by
plane
can
no
longer
be
seen
as
responsible
to
our
environment," she
said.
"Stars
like
Harrison
Ford
need
to
embrace
the
huge
opportunity
to
lead
by
example
in
the
battle
against
climate
change
-
reduce
their
overall
lifestyle
carbon
footprint
and
carbon
offset
those
unavoidable
emissions,"
she
added
