    “We should use planes less” is not “you mustn’t use planes ever”. Not every plane journey can easily be replaced. That’s okay. Near me there’s a flight that takes off to go a few hundred miles to the country’s capital each morning, and there are similar ones going much shorter distances all over the country. That journey could and should be a high speed train journey with suitable infrastructure

      You always get this kind of outrage when you tell people to do anything less. Eat less meat: How dare you tell me I cannot eat meat! I work hard every day at the blue collar job and all I want to do is to come home to a nice steak!

        The amount of mental gymnastics people go through to not even consider veganism is so astounding. Morality aside, cutting all animal products would do so much good for the environment.
