It matters not a jot.
The problem is this. If every sector (road transport, marine, power generation etc) takes that same line then the crisis will develop to a point where we reach tipping point in short order.
All sectors, including aviation have to do their bit. Nobody (apart from Thunberg and the extremists groups) are after banning aviation, though personally I would make sure business aviation were treated commensurate to the disproportionate amount of environmental damage it does relative to commercial air transport.
