The bulk of these flights covered distances of less than 500 km, and could easily have been made by train 🚆
The busiest private jet route in Europe last year was Paris-London, which is connected by a 2h journey by train happening 14 times a day! There's no excuse! 2/

The UK is at the top of
#privatejet
flights in Europe, closely followed by France and Germany.
The three most popular destinations in 2022 were Nice (Côte d’Azur), Paris, and Geneva 📍 3/

Private jets emit as much as 14 times more CO2 than a commercial ✈️ per passenger, and 50 times more than a train journey!
They are the plaything of the rich, who keep flying carelessly while the rest of the world burns 🔥 4/

No plans to halt climate breakdown can be taken seriously if we can't even

That's why people everywhere have been taking action and will keep doing so until this madness is over ✊ 5/

Shocking!? Not!!! Considering how many gazillioners live in those two cities…and are pushing out regular people who no longer can afford to live there.

I think we should ban heating oil also, it causes much more CO2 than private jets.
