The government’s want us Joe Public to go green and be as carbon neutral as possible, yet reading in the papers today the number of ghost flights(empty or near empty seats) made by airlines over the last two years in order for them to maintain their flight and airport slots is appalling. Saving a bit here and a bit there by the man in the street is so minuscule that it is a waste of time and unless the big boys do it then we are doomed.
