Having the public lose trust in the safety of flying is absolutely not something you want to happen. This could have devastating effects and I think enough is enough and the government needs to step in and take over running the airlines. It’s too important to leave gold hoarding dragons in charge of it.
Having the public lose trust in the safety of flying is something I absolutely want to happen. This will have devastating effects on carbon emissions, and push more people (and governments) towards trains.
Devastating is a bit of an exaggeration with it being responsible for a whooping 3% (at most) of emissions and arguably helping raise the albedo a bit with their contrails.
So it would help a bit, it wouldn’t be a game changer though (except if you live near an airport, sound is another pollution that’s often ignored).
I would rather we start using blimos what can we do towards that
What is that like really fancy long blimps
Boeing is the only company actually trying to reach their net zero target. Once no Boeing plane are flying anymore that’s it, no more CO2 emissions
Silver lining: less flights booked means less emissions for the environment.
That’s not a silver lining at all. Jets are actually very fuel efficient compared to driving when they’re full of passengers.
One less plane in the air could potentially mean 300+ more cars on the road. Not a great outcome.

Boing
When the plugdoor hinge consultant is asked how to spell Boeing
“Boing” is the sound the door makes when hitting the ground.
