Lots of responses here focusing on planes and air travel. Just wanted to call out what a small part (1.9%) of the problem that actually is: https://ourworldinda

- teh_klev 5y agoYes, but all the small parts add up.
- UglyToad 5y agoThanks for re-iterating this. Granted, due to where the emissions take place, air travel is slightly stronger/higher but I feel like the sole focus on air travel is an annoying feature of a lot of climate-change discussions. It's something we really don't have many technically or economically viable alternatives for yet. Why don't climate-change measures and discussions focus on the other 95%+ of sources that are easier to address?
