Really? You think airlines will fly half-empty planes long term?
- bellyfullofbac 5y agoMore like, 1/300 empty... (At least in a world where it's 2019). I agree with grandparent poster, individual action won't save the planet, governments should increase CO2 taxes (extremely, if they're serious about saving the planet) and apply it to things like fossil fuels or meat. But then they'd get voted out of office, ah, God bless democracy! /s
- Taylor_OD 5y agoYes. Unless airlines fail the planes will continue to fly. They fly empty if no one if on them. Airlines have to continue to fly routes or risk giving up that route to another airline. We've seen that the government will prop up airlines.
