1⃣ Private jets are the most polluting option. They emit huge amounts of climate-damaging emissions compared to already highly polluting commercial flights - and especially to low-emissions alternatives like trains. #BanPrivateJets #TaxFrequentFlyers #MakePollutersPay

2⃣ One flight on a private jet causes much more pollution than most people in the world produce in a whole year for meeting all their needs like housing, daily mobility and food. #BanPrivateJets #TaxFrequentFlyers #MakePollutersPay

3⃣ Private jets are even more unevenly distributed globally than emissions already are. A few rich people in some countries think they have the right to a recklessly polluting jet-set life. #BanPrivateJets #TaxFrequentFlyers #MakePollutersPay

4⃣ Most private jet flights are unnecessary - and would be so even as regularly scheduled commercial flights. A large proportion of private jet flights are short-haul flights that can also be done by train. #BanPrivateJets #TaxFrequentFlyers #MakePollutersPay

5⃣ To stay within the 1.5 degree limit, *everyone* must reduce their footprint. Decadent activities with wasteful energy consumption and extreme emissions must end. No one should be allowed to buy their way out of this. #BanPrivateJets #TaxFrequentFlyers #MakePollutersPay

@StayGroundedNet Is it because they believe only virtue signalling attendees of COP27 should be allowed to use private jets ?
