Are Private Jets Bad For the Environment?

The environment is a huge concern for everyone. We all want a cleaner world for our children in the future. The environmental global agencies are implementing programs that will change the future in great ways. People are walking and driving their automobiles only when necessary. The Federal Aviation Administration and Transport Canada have been monitoring the carbon foot print that impacts the environment. They actually developed a pie chart which shows the percentages many modes of transportation actually impact the environment. The pie chart surprisingly shows that automobile travel leaves the largest carbon footprint on the environment. Automobile travel leaves 55 percent of the impact on the environment globally. The latest statistics showed that cars are the worst for the environment. Private jets and aviation leave only a two percent of that pie chart carbon foot print in terms of traveling. This leaves a gold star for jets having the least impact. Flying in private jets is considered the safest mode of travel for the environment.

While such rules already existed in North America, the new policies will mostly affect the private jets industry. Take note that when it comes to travelling, flying via a private charter already presents several big advantages compared to commercial airlines. In fact, private charter companies have been working with many clients with disabilities or reduced mobility for years. Nevertheless, we believe that the new regulations constitute a great start towards ensuring that disabled passengers who choose commercial airlines can now enjoy an enhanced experience on the ground and in the air.
