    Everything is just a fraction of the total.
    Private jets are an insane amount of unnecessary pollution by a very few people.

      In 2022, most of the world’s fossil fuel carbon emissions came from coal (40 per cent), oil (32 per cent), natural gas (21 per cent)

      No, there are a few very big things we can tackle literally this very second if we just had the global effort.

        Why do we use coal? I’m uninformed or ignorant.

        Apples and oranges very much?
        A private jet is a USE of energy.
        Coal is a SOURCE of energy.

          Right so focusing on swapping off coal to renewables would solve two birds with one bush.

            Not when no airplanes use coal or renewables. And we can and should do both. We’re in crunch time.
