Study Notes
Climate Change
- Air travel contributes significantly to environmental problems
- The cost of flying has decreased making it more accessible, especially for people living in richer countries
- Airplanes produce more carbon dioxide (CO2) than any other form of public transport
- CO2 is a greenhouse gas which contributes to climate change
Impact of Air travel
- The accessibility of air travel increases the number of people flying
- This leads to an increase in CO2 emissions
- The rise in CO2 emissions has a direct impact on the environment and contributes to global warming
