Lufthansa flew 18,000 (!) empty flights in 2021 to keep airport slots.

But yea, its me driving to work and plastic straws that are the major problem....



also, I honestly would be fine banning plastic use in any packaging or single use capacity. The amount of plastic a normal person throws away in a week is insane.

As usual, cooperation between countries to reverse the earth’s temperature is not easy. Ah well, maybe someday.
