No sympathy at all!

If WW insists on putting all his eggs in an already bursting basket then expect it to fail.

Plenty of other baskets around with runway/slots available.

As for environmental impact.

Anywhere between 2% and 6% (depending on where you get your stats from) of TOTAL CO2 production is from aviation. Totally insignificant if a handfull have to orbit for a few minutes Expensive, yes. But zero impact on the environment.
