When they compare an airliner that travels half way across the world in terms of hours to a "further down the food chain" motor vehicle I just have to laugh
The car comparison is impractical as it's not designed to go great distances and even if it did it'd take about a year to get there anyway. Also the biggest factor here is many hundreds are transported by the aircraft and whereas a car will transport (inefficiently) a small handful of people at the most.
Air travel is efficient and all this global warming stuff is without substance. What is it that we've been shown or educated about with regards to this new trendy new phenomena. "Just take our word for it", it's happening but how, where and to what extent, etc ....
