A survey covering 6000 Western travelers shows one in five travelers is flying less as ’flight shaming’ propels them to shun air travel for the sake of the planet. The survey in July and August showed that 20 per cent of travelers in the US, France, Britain and Germany had cut air travel by at least one flight in the past year. Commercial flying accounts for about 2% of global carbon emissions.
Great! Now so hopefully I might get an empty seat next to me so I can spread out! I'm a fit guy but I do love space! thank you idiots hahaha
So they drove instead of flying, makes sense to me.
Oh good. Discount tickets for me.
I don't like to fly because paying hundreds of dollars to go through the experience of actually getting onto a plane just to be crammed like a sardine into coach for hours frankly sucks.
Shame Greta.
O.k. I'll laugh at them when I'm sipping a beer on a white sand beach.
my guess is they all used it as an excuse to blow off a destination wedding or family reunion they didnt want to attend
When are they going to start vegan fashion shaming? Synthetic material horribly damages our planet. Is that ok to say? I’m so afraid these days to turn around and find an angry Swedish teenager scowling at me from the shadows.
They probably can't afford it if they live in Europe
There is nothing wrong with carbon
Didn't the temperature rise during the 911 flight cessation? We are screwed either way.
oh my gosh.... I literally have no words to Express what my two remaining brain cells are trying to communicate as I read this post...
Ill believe the airlines when they signal a drop, people just lie to pollsters because they have been shamed or want to collect a stroke from someone for being goof. Anyone will do even an impartial pollster. It’s pathetic truly.
does this mean the US is stuck with Greta as she cannot fly back to Sweden?
Cultural Marxism = flight shaming. People just start rejecting this and laugh at those pushing this nonsense.
Eh, maybe. But I these are the people who fly several times a year, and then boast about not taking one flight to save the planet to all their friends.
REEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
The "shaming" culture has to cease. It is b.s.
I'm calling bullshit on this.
