Globally aviation contributes about 6% of the total man-made carbon emissions. Or so we are told.
You could stop every aircraft in the world flying tomorrow and it would not make a blind bit of difference.

Why there is this obsession with reducing air travel I just do not understand.

Fine, if man made global climate change is a thing, then target those that contribute the most to it, not the family going on a jolly to Spain for a week or two.
