@skatearithmetic "Hes not telling the 'working class' not to go on holidays." Yes he is, he demands price increases which will stop the poor from flying because they can't afford it, but won't affect rich people at all.
"we can cut it down by up to 10 times" Aviation is not more polluting than other means of transport. It uses about as much fuel per person as a middle class car, plus it doesn't require vast surfaces for roads or rails. It also inflicts less noise than cars or trains.
Trains are all well and good if you need to get from London to Edinburgh but how do these misguided people think a family of four who want their one and only annual holiday in spain are going to get there? An hours trip to London, another two hours on Eurostar then a long uncomfortable overnight journey to get to Spain. They would lose almost three days of the holiday just to get there.
Flying time - two or three hours tops. It's a no-brainer.
Poor little rich kid thats never done a hard days graft in his life! I travel on a plane every year because unlike this prick (who's Daddy is the head of a multinational company) i cant afford to take the boat to my holiday destination. i will also fly at any opportunity BECAUSE I WANT TO!. It's called freedom of choice.
More eco-bullshit from Joss. More power to him. He's a fantastic weapon against the green lobby.

Garman comes across as a proper bell end. His accent makes me want to take some direct action myself!

Joss Garman's argument is not very clear. The interviewer should never have to ask questions about someone's argument.
Joss, get a job you dickbag!

Plane Stupid is stupid.
Why don't these extremists go and lie in a road?? Surely it would be more effective!?
Aviation, ALL AVIATION, accounts for just 3% OF TOTAL EMISSIONS!! so, as I say, GO LIE IN A ROAD!

Joss Garman is, at heart, an upper class twat. What a nasty little man, with his hatred of other people.
