Climate notes for February 3rd 2024

Below I’ve linked to an article about protesting the use of aircraft for short haul flights when footie teams visit each other in England. I had genuinely never considered that this is happening. It’s small, seemingly inconceivable changes like this that will move the needle forward. Similarly, I gave out to a colleague of mine because he’s going on a short cruise. If we taxed climate activities properly, cruises and small, private jets on short distances would be the first industries to collapse.
