How many aircraft in the skies (especially in europe) now compared with previously. They are now more fuel efficient, but they can compare carbon emissions.
If you fly loco multiple times a year I think you need to place a hell of a lot of trees to 'off-set' your carbon footprint.
I am sure all the passengers do this routinely, for the sake of the grand kids, yes??
That famous actress, Emma Thompson has the answer. She plants lots of trees and flies economy!
So very well done, Emma, a world saving idea!
