That’s 7,200 miles by car, by myself, using gas (about 150 gallons, as I drive a Prius.) There is wear and tear on the car, and on me, and meals and motels. The flights are usually packed. What if we all used cars instead of flying?

Enjoy yourself

I have yet to read the rest of the posts, and probably won’t because this is just the dumbest idea yet…but why don’t we try listening to REAL scientists instead of crackpots like this! The ones who invent a crisis so they can fix it.

If it will save the planet, should we do it??

P.S. I assume they are roundtrip so it may be 8 flights.

Great Travel Reset: Poll: 41% of French population favors restricting EVERYONE to ONLY 4 airplane flights in their ENTIRE LIFE to ‘fight against global warming’ • Watts Up With That?

This is just an excuse for greater government control - over a non-problem. It is a scam. There is no climate change crisis - just a climate education crisis.

Correct. Today's climate alarmism is totally fabricated. If anyone has doubts, just attend the next Weather Club meeting, where you will see exactly how governments alter and fabricate temperature in order to scare you ... The Villages Weather Club

Correct. The change is minuscule. In fact, if you look at the global satellite temperature data (this is funded by the U.S. government), it shows a very slight 9-year cooling trend. Guess why the media will never tell you.

Most of our power companies are small, especially in rural areas. They are one of the largest employers in these regions giving them a lot of political influence. The infrastructure required to build a nuclear power station is beyond their abilities. It is also the reason most have vehemently opposed any transition to solar or other sustainable power sources.

Statements from owners of 4 aircrafts....Do we see a pattern.
