Re: My plan
"And why must we reduce flights? Because we cant let the plebs travel can we."
If the alternative to restricting flights is an ever-increasing number of wealthy* people flying more and more, burning more and more oil, causing more and more pollution, then we're doomed.
The current amount of flying is a recent phenomenon -- hardly anyone I knew flew in the 70s, now lots of them fly several times per year. Younger people are growing up thinking this is normal, but it's not.
My family considered moving to Australia in the 1960s, it would have meant a weeks-long trip by boat, and they probably wouldn't have returned to the UK for decades. Now some people do that sort of journey on a whim.
Travel can be great fun, but when it's starting to endanger the planet we live on, it's time to put on the brakes.
*The vast majority of humanity never fly in their entire lives, those of us who can travel when and where we want are incredibly privileged, even if we don't realise it as such.
