I'm pretty tired of the narrative that middle class should cut back on air travel, when the wealthy fly privately, excessively and often, whilst the rest of us are packed like sardines for the occasional holiday.https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/jan/18/world-tour-luxury-jet …

Obviously this would be ideal, but I think it's ridiculous that I'm being told to no longer travel, whilst the rich are flying down the street.

Yeah, you’re making a great point here. As with all things, the rich are working to make us non-rich fight each other

There's a good chance a Green New Deal would include cross-country high speed rail.https://www.greentechmedia.com/articles/read/green-new-deal-clean-transportation …

would be awesome if so. As with any big legislation I'm skeptical, and I worry that if it actually got passed it'd be greatly reduced to the point where the essentially useful things (like this) would get stripped out and it would just turn into "make more lanes people"

Cross-country rail is a good long term goal to replace flight as the primary long distance travel. But also, zeppelins. IMO zeppelins are the flight of the future, because they can be built carbon neutral.

"But zeppelins blow up" yes and planes malfunction and explode as well. The difference between one sardine tin and another is that zeppelins can be more environmentally friendly. Also they've got Style.

The good news is flying only accounts for 3% or so of co2 emissions, IIUC. So we could theoretically use synthetic fuel for a long time as long as we stop being so ridiculously fucking wasteful elsewhere.
