Curb cheap flights, urge climate researchers
Limit cheap flights? I’m skeptical, and doubt that pollution from planes is anything close to that from cars and generation. And, unlike cars, planes really do improve quality of life. Better to look into making more efficient planes, I think.

Output from planes is certainly nothing close to output from cares, generation or cows … but it’s still significant. More efficient planes yes - since the trend has always been about bigger & more luxurious - but also cutting down on frequency of service, on routes where flights are not being filled to capacity.
