Fair but air travel is a blip in global emissions despite the disproportonate media coverage.

  2% of a massive number is a very big number, way too big to ignore.

    Agreed but the same can be said for the steel industry, which has had zero media coverage and alone accounts for 7% of a very big number, or more dramatically 350% of the emissions associated with freight and passenger air transport combined. My point is that there is a lot of low hanging fruit corporate emitters that should be curbed before targeting consumers.

      We're out of time. We need to attack every sector, no exceptions. Increasing the price of steel will just trickle down to consumers. In the end, they're the ones that pay for everything.
