I'm with you three - wtf is this 'carbon credit' rubbish.
Another great scam...
Look at the average narrow body twin jet flying around oz - say a flight of 2500km, burn around 5000kg with about 110pax as a bad load - works out to around 60litres jet-a per pax. (simplistic I know)
If you put the same number of people in four wheel drives, or average aussi v8, at 3 per vehicle - I guarantee that they would consume more than 60 litres per head on the same distance.
Why are aircraft being made out to be the bad guys in CO2 emissions.
It's the same tripe about Oz being the greatest CO2 emitter in the world - only on a per capita basis - the convenient qualifier left out in media reports...
Go plant your ouwn trees - it's more fun. Don't pay an airline to do it for you, coz there ain't that much room for forests at our airports..
