    Well for example, I read the other day that 1 in 10 flights taking off from the UK are private jets.

      That’s very interesting.

      Majority of private jets carrying 3 passengers or less, releasing 10 times as much carbon per passenger than a commercial flight.

      As a peasant, I don’t think reducing my carbon footprint will offset the disgusting (increasing) display of greed from the elites.

      That’s funny and made me chuckle but it doesn’t substantiate the claim made.
