    I will answer for them. Because flying from the Netherlands to New Zealand in economy class will emit the equivalent of about 4 tons of carbon dioxide. Roughly equivalent to driving a car every day for a year or so.

        Absolutely illogical. The flight is going because you created demand for it by buying the ticket. This is exactly the same as saying, “Why bother voting? Your single vote won’t make any difference”.

          This is fair. Even though I didn’t create the demand for this particular flight, I contributed to the demand for the next one.

          I’ll find some wildly expensive way to travel that doesn’t cause pollution
