If there is some pollution, then that is simply too bad. But our industry should be left alone-it is having a difficult enough time recovering (at least in the US) from TOO MUCH GOVERNMENT, i.e. those huge security taxes, which are not paid by the passengers. We have many thousands of airline people laid off, and this only includes the US. Yes, the US government recently paid the airlines back, at least for part of this, but just wait-our GOP is quickly closing the gap to become so over-regulated that it already appears to operate like the many heavy-handed foreign govts out there, which seem to believe that a gigantic bureaucracy with rigid regulations for everything, is more efficient than anything else.

Ozone or pollution-that's just tough. This issue should go to the very bottom of the problem priority list-whether the Green Party (i.e. German Foreign Minister Joschke Fischer) likes it or not. Many of them would rather live in the Iron Age in a village and/or in total anarchy. Maybe that is why so many anarchists/Communists are attracted to this party....("brilliant deduction, Einstein")....
