  1. > Ecology is for the poors….

    loool you’ve clearly never been to a poor country or else you would not think that

  2. Imo it’s ok to disincentivise flights for short distances which could take +- same time as a train (considering boarding, arriving early, etc). But for the rest of the flights, blaming people will not lead to anything good.

    It doesn’t help that a lot of EUs rail infra is a joke and countries aren’t pouring nearly enough money into it vs car infrastructure.

  3. Consensus is not science; ask Semmelweis, Wegener, Boltzmann etc.

    A colleague of mine loves mentioning climate change at lunch; he’s also been to most countries in the world 🤡

  4. This is a low effort report and leading to dubious conclusions.

    What were the questions and possible answers respondents could provide?

    I mean, if someone is flying from Geneva to Zurich that would be… excessive. But Mallorca for the weekend no one is sitting 21 hours on a train each way.
