gollark: I mean, yes, it would be *bad* if we ignored the problem and flew pollutingly, but that doesn't mean people won't do it anyway.
gollark: It totally can. Climate change is an abstract and fairly faraway issue for people. "I can't conveniently fly like I used to" is really obvious and immediate.
gollark: Besides, nobody uses planes for high-volume shipping.
gollark: Maybe if batteries improve.
gollark: Last I heard, solar-powered planes didn't really work due to solar panel efficiency limits and solar irradiance not being that high.
