Could you be flight-free in 2025?

Why... when aviation (apparently) only accounts for 2.5% global emissions?

Here's why (and the facts behind the figures): https://t.co/JRyBLFpTLm

41% of French population is in favour of a proposal to limit everyone to 4 flights in their entire life.
59% of 18-24 year-olds agree.

2 return flights. Not per year: per life.

At end of the day 121 years ago, humans had spent less than 5 minutes in sustained, controlled flight covering less than 1,500 feet on a windy beach. But it gave rise to what we see today with nearly 200,000 daily flights on all 7 continents. #WrightBrothersDay

What are we waiting for?

Former President of the Royal Aeronautical Society argues that we have enough scientific knowledge to introduce contrail avoidance measures to decrease their occurrence, potentially lowering the sector’s climate warming impact.

Happy Friday! You will be pleased to hear that there are 184 Boeing 747s in the air right now.

Scandinavian Airlines stood us up 💔

So we exposed their lies.

The super-rich do not have a God-given right to destroy the planet for the sake of flying to a football match in luxury.

The majority of the world's population has never flown – yet they experience the harm it causes the most.

Aviation is a justice issue. Let’s fly less for a more equal society 🌍

A new study lays bear the scandalous explosion of private jet pollution in recent years.

We're quoted here, calling for governments to #BanPrivateJets and invest in rail.

It's getting spooky at @CPHAirports! 👻💀🎃A horde of money-sucking millionaire vampires has descended on terminal 3. The #AMOC is now likely to collapse but these deathly ghouls could not give a f*ck. They want to keep flying in luxury jets until the world burns to a crisp! 1/n

We have one day to save the jet fuel tax.

Aviation accounts for 3.5% of climate change impact, and it's one of the sectors where emissions are increasingly most rapidly.

But where do aviation emissions come from?

The answer is in this new paper led by Frédéric Dobruszkes - THREAD https://t.co/gkig3kAFVz
