Default "Heathrow and Gatwick airports: Ministers mull rail link" (twixt

We were about to embark at Dover, when d () came up
to me and whispered:


Who cares? Its the same amount of C02 being released whether
its full or empty.


But CO2 in the stratosphere isn't a problem. Nor is it pollution.

If there was no flight most of the passengers
probably wouldn't make the trip or would use a more efficient train.


Let me know when I can catch a train to Canada.

Anyone who's seen a 707 or concorde at
takeoff can remember the dirty trails of pollution they left
behind.


Which isn't in the stratosphere, which is what you were complaining about.
And Concorde using afterburners was very clean...
