These stunts are pointless, irrelevant and, in the end, counterproductive. You could ground the entire aviation industry --all of it-- and it would do exactly zero towards atmospheric CO2 reduction. Zero. The problem with activists is that they are low information zealots who, for the most part, are ignorant useful idiots. Sorry to be so harsh, but I believe this to be the case for most any domain where, for the most part, young "activists" are the result of finding people who never ask tough questions, can't evaluate matters objectively, are driven by emotion and are supremely susceptible to indoctrination. Want to get a sense of just how dumb it is to go after private jets or the entire air transportation industry? Here: https://www.ucsusa.org/resources/each-countrys-share-co2-emissions https://www.ucsusa.org/resources/each-countrys-share-co2-emi... Scroll down to the pie chart titled "Top Annual CO2 Emitting Countries, 2019". here's a simple reality that requires nothing more than being able to add and subtract: If the United States --all of it-- were to evaporate from this planet tomorrow --all of it, gone, no more CO2 emissions-- you would only cut down CO2 inputs to the atmosphere by 14%. Stopping private jets or the entire airline industry is a rounding error compared to all of the US evaporating tomorrow. OK, let's get rid of the US and China. That will only reduce CO2 inputs by 43%. Stopping private jets? As an idea, this is between ridiculous and demented. And, BTW, these numbers aren't even correct. You cannot bring down CO2 inputs to zero. You just can't. Why? Well, the simplest explanation is that you have forest and other fires that would still be there and constantly contribute CO2 to the atmosphere. In California alone, one year of fires is equivalent to nearly 20 years of emissions savings. If we all evaporate from this planet --all of humanity-- it will probably take somewhere in the order of 100K yeas for atmospheric CO2 to drop by 100 ppm (we have accurate data on this, it isn't a guess).
