My apologies as I haven’t seen anything, I’ve been polluting the planet carrying vital pharmaceuticals to the USA.
As a skeptic in the whole global warming campaign, and most of us have stated already on here, Aviation contributes a minor part to it, and the minor part to which it contributes is worthwhile. The pharmaceutical supplies my cargo company just delivered, the numerous thousands of aid workers airlines carry around the world, the food it’s supplies, the water it carries, the clothing it supplies... The list is endless.
This thread has slightly drifted, but, tankering will continue as long as airlines continue to operate! Period!
