It is often highlighted that a single long-distance flight consumes the same amount of fuel that a car might use over several years, while both cause comparable levels of pollution. This has led some to argue that we should discourage non-essential flights, instead of focusing on limiting car usage. While I agree that reducing non-essential flights can help address global pollution, I believe that a balanced approach is required, targeting both air travel and car usage, as both contribute significantly to environmental harm.
